HG200 1 x 5 Vulcan Level 3: 1 x 5 Vulcan Level 4: 1 x 1 Vulcan Level 5: 1 x 1 Vulcan Level 6: 1 x 1 Vulcan Level 7: Fail.
Comments
This is the first test run of the vulcan and I'm please to say that it's a tad easier than I initially thought since I ridded of my forearm DOMS and chalked up. It's still brutal in comparison to a regular torsion srping gripper though.
The two hand setting seems quite tricky. I'm not sure if I'm benefitting from it since my left hand is grapsing the end of the handle where my pinkie should be therefore I find my gripping hand is further up the handle making for less leverage.
I'll be banding up the gripper to give me a stepping stone between lvl 6 and 7.

It seems I'm warming to this quite quickly having just closed a Level 9! I'm still having problems finding strength to work the set, pause (card in) then close since my set and close is worked into one motion as the videos demonstrate. Vulcan Level 3: x 5 Vulcan Level 4: x 5 Vulcan Level 5: x 5 Vulcan Level 6: x 1 Vulcan Level 7: x 1 Vulcan Level 8: x 1 Vulcan Level 9: x 1 - PB Level 9 close:www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6AuUu-iCGk Failled Level 9 CCS: (ignore text reading "level 8") www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSdpvkly_DM

Today was the moment of truth to see if my few weeks of Vulcan work had carried over into the torsion grippers as planned.
PB was stood at a closure of the CoC#2.5 on a good day but not having closed it for a good while usually missing by 2mm to 1cm on a bad day. The #3 was a distant dream only able to crush to parallel at best.
The aim of the session was to close the #2.5 in the first attempt:
HG200 X 5 CoC#2 X 1 CoC#2.5 X 1 Closed. CoC#3 X 1 CLOSED!!!
