April Challenge - Gripper Hold for Time

#Silver Bullet Gripper Hold (imitation)

Congrats to u/wrgolden140 and /u//u/Gilly8690 for the top lifts in last month's challenge. The grip prize random drawing winner is... u/shul0k! Please PM u/david_dennis to select your grip implement.

This month we'll be doing a Gripper Hold for time: Silver Bullet Imitation.

#Equipment

• Any Captain of Crush torsion spring gripper (or equivalent, see below)
• a 2nd gripper (or Silver Bullet)

#The Details

• Pick up a gripper - you may use two hands to set / partially close the gripper
• Place the handle of a 2nd gripper between the handles like this image
• If you opt to use a real Silver Bullet instead, add a 2.5 lb weight or another gripper to the strap to make it even.
• Squeeze the handles with one hand to keep the implement aloft, and hold there as long as possible until it drops
• TILTING THE GRIPPER WILL RESULT IN DQ! Keep the gripper at 90°
• Pinkie/palm CAN NOT touch the implement!
• Post any questions/conversations here.

#Scoring

• Score is total time that the implement stays between the handles, sorted by gripper difficulty.
• Any time spent holding with a harder gripper will automatically beat a gripper of easier difficulty.
• Only Ironmind difficulty levels (Trainer, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4) will be used to divide competitors
• Alternative Grippers: You may substitute a rated gripper (or un-rated with an average rating) at least as high as one of the CoC increments above. You will be scored with that increment.

##Prizes

• Top 2 challengers will have special flair in r/griptraining
• David Dennis of GorillaStrength.us continues to sponsor these challenges. It will be a random drawing, so anyone that posts a video could win your choice of a pinch block or hub trainer.
