NOTES: I was putting on a little gripper clinic for my brother-in-laws Dave and Bobby and decided to hit my hard CoC #3 for a max effort attempt in the choker. This thing is beastly with a spread over 3"; it's been my goal gripper since the day I owned it. I recently got it in a giant washer (over the spring) to choke it down to just over parallel. I felt strong so I had Bobby grab his camera, just in case. I gave it hell and..."CLICK!" I almost did a back-flip I was so excited. Unfortunately, I was shaking a bit so the numbers are not visible in the pic. I'm going to keep giving it hell, and once I get a better pic or some video I'll post it up.
