      Yep and don't grippers lose some strength from their rgc rating over a 2-4 yr period. So a 212 rgc Close.might have been a 207-208 close? Still elite and fantastic by Ivan none the less.
      Anyone knows how long these heavy Coc grippers holds strength and say it's 1-3 yrs old.from the last rgc rating.. I have a 205 rgc rated coc 4 thats not quite a year old from CPW.
      And I wonder what the rgc will be say in 2024-2025? Will the strength rating fall a few pounds or remain the same? Anyone got info on this ?

      I know its gotta to be way tuffer now since they want make sure you cant tamper with the gripper as rumours abound now with Kinney and others that they may not have legitmately closed #4s . I do see what youve been saying brother on you don't fully trust cerfied closers when no witnesses and the gripper not.shown opening up and of course a few of them never closed #4s in a public setting or out of a package again after certification with a reputable witnesses etc. Definitely suspect. Now maybe we see a real recognized and legit powerhouse Coc#4 certification with a few folks trying for it.

    HI jedd indeed Ivan is legitimate. Hes doing some amazing things. Like a no set 3.5 and Ivan can definitely close some strong #4. Now coc#4s out of the package are hitting more than 215-230 out of the package. So he can do it if he builds more strength and do it easy if he gets a gripper that's in the 205-212 range. I would think you have to be able to close at least 218-220 something to have the best shot at cc.close out of the package. So going to be interesting to see who does it first Jedd and everyone. Nice Larry gave Ivan huge platform to showcase what could be the most powerful known gripper and crushing strength in a young strength athlete.
    Also I wonder is this the era someone closes a.ghp10 with a 250-280 rgc or better 🤔
