Order Wrist Developers and Vulcan Grippers in the United States

Monday, October 29th, 2012

I have been contacted by many of you again recently about ordering in more of the World of Grip Equipment, such as Vulcan Grippers, and the Wrist Developer seems very popular right now as well.

Well, after being out of stock of two of their flagship products for quite some time, the Vulcan V2 and the Wrist Developer, I have been informed by Elizabeth Horne that they expect to be stocked back up and ready to ship out orders within 2 to 3 weeks.

This means that if you pre-order your equipment now, most of you can have your World of Grip equipment within 3 to 4 weeks.

Now, you can go to my World of Grip ordering page and pre-order your equipment at a discount.

Here are the prices on the most common World of Grip equipment I get in:

Vulcan V2 Grippers: pre-order: $99 (regular $109)

The V2’s are currently out of stock, but the Hornes are expecting to be able to ship orders out within about 2 to 3 weeks. This batch of V2’s will be painted Green.

Wrist Developers: pre-order: $99 (regular $109)

The Wrist Developers are just coming back into stock now. The image above shows the previous design. I will post an image of the new design as soon as I get one from David and Elizabeth at World of Grip. The new WD’s are expected to be ready to ship within about 2 to 3 weeks.

Extra Springs: $19.99
V2’s and WD’s come with the standard Black Spring (or equivalent), but lighter Orange and even lighter White springs can be ordered for each device.

Thumb Screws: pre-order: $25 (regular $29.99)
I actually have a few of these sets in stock, but will be listing them at the pre-order price of $25.

Setting Blocks: $7.99
These are the devices to measure 20-mm and 30-mm set depths for when using the Vulcan Grippers during contests and for certifications. The 20-mm and 30-mm Setting Blocks have become a standard for regular torsion spring gripper training (such as IronMind Grippers and Tetting Grippers as well).

Want other equipment from World of Grip? I am open to getting other pieces. The ones above are simply what I get each time. If there is something else you are interested in, let me know, and I will be glad to look into it.

Any questions, let me know. Email me or leave a comment below.

Thanks,

Jedd

Vulcan Gripper – Last Few V2’s

Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

Update on the limited quantity of Vulcan V2 Grippers I have left.

If you have never bought anything from me in the past, rest assured I do not mess around with these orders. I keep everything organized to the best of my ability and aim to mail everything out either the night I get the order or the very next day. I’ve received some very nice feedback from some of the people who have purchase Vulcan Grippers and Wrist Developers from me, and I thought I would share some of that with you right now:


    From Andy Thomas (recently bought a V2): “I got a Vulcan V2 from Jedd on this order I believe. Great gripper, quality product, great seller as well. If you train grippers at all, you need one of these. I put it off for a long time due to the price, but I am now kicking myself for not getting one sooner. Great piece of kit.”
    From William Mollett (recently bought a V2): “Thanks for the great service I received, and I will make future purchases off you.”

I really appreciate the feedback, guys, and I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

Speaking of the future, I do plan on getting in a small order of Orange Springs, Black Springs, and Thumb Screws. I am in the process of making that order with David and Elizabeth at World of Grip, right now.

If there is additional interest in more V2’s once these ones are gone (which will probably be this week), or Wrist Developers, let me know by leaving a comment below with your email address and I will be glad to follow up with you.

In the video above, I mentioned that I have 5 Vulcan V2’s left – that is no longer accurate. One of those is already reserved for a friend who is traveling outside the country, and two have already been sold since I uploaded the video to YouTube, so these are going quickly.

Any questions – please let me know, other wise you can get your Vulcan here: Vulcan Grippers At Huge Savings.

Thanks, and all the best in your training.

What to Do with Weak Grippers

Sunday, January 22nd, 2012

This is a video I shot as part of an article for my buddy, Murph, recently on what to do with lighter grippers you might have laying around, especially if you have family members like I do, that don’t quite understand what it is you do in your Grip Training.

Check it out.

Taking requests for upcoming videos – anybody got anything they want to see?

Thanks,

Jedd

Vulcan V2 Grippers from David Horne / World of Grip

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

I am working with David Horne on getting another order of his famous and popular V2-Vulcan Grippers and Wrist Developers shipped here to the United States.

Since it has worked out so smoothly in the past, I will be doing this on a pre-order basis. Just let me know that you are interested in a Vulcan V2, Wrist Developer, Thumb Screws, or extra Springs by either leaving a comment below or emailing me.

If you are not familiar with these pieces of equipment, let me tell you a bit about them.

Here is a video I put up, yesterday.

Here is some additional information on the many pieces of equipment I will be getting in from World of Grip.

Vulcan Gripper (V2)

The Vulcan Gripper is David Horne’s “nutcracker” style hand gripper that is adjustable over a variety of strength levels. It has two loading arms with notches which hold a coil spring. The spring can be adjusted up and down in order to adjust the difficulty level.


Vulcan V2 – January 2012, World of Grip

The Vulcan was re-designed late last year and is being sold as the V2. The new design has a slightly wider handle setting than the original, but it also is a much more attractive piece now, as some of the visual flaws of the first version have been removed and eliminated.

The V2 comes with a Crom spring, which is a chromed spring. The Crom spring is 3 levels harder than the silver/black dip spring that was shipped with Vulcans last year.

Other springs, white and orange, can be ordered. The white springs are very light, while the Orange Springs are a more moderate strength level. Springs from the V2 and original Vulcan will work with one another.

Wrist Developer

The Wrist Developer is a device that is designed to mimic and strengthen the movement pattern of Reverse Style Bending.

It uses a similar loading structure as the Vulcan / V2, with two bars and same dimensions. The Wrist Developer comes with its own Crom Spring. Springs are interchangeable between the Wrist Developer and V2.

Thumb Screws

Thumb Screws are attachments that go onto the handles of the Vulcan Gripper in order to train dynamic pinch, similar to a lever-action pinch training device.

If you are interested in picking up one or more of these items, please post a comment here or email me through the contact form.

Thanks,

Jedd

New Gripper DVD – CRUSH!

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011


CRUSH – Coming REALLY Soon


Hello DIESELS!

My new DVD is set to come out very soon. It’s called, CRUSH! Total Gripper Domination.

I have been extremely excited about it for the last few weeks. Let me tell you a bit about it…

This whole thing started when I first began marketing the Vulcan V2 Gripper through David Horne’s World of Grip.

Many of the guys who were picking them up were interested in a short demonstration of how to modify the strength level of the Vulcan, so, eager to oblige, I shot something to cover how to move the spring and how to tell which level you were on.

Once I got rolling, I ended up covering a bunch of other points, so I re-worked the entire thing into a complete How to Train with the Vulcan video.

As I edited that
, I realized there was so much more training to do in order to improve performance on the Vulcan, that I needed to shoot that information as well.

So, essentially, this project kept growing and growing into the definitive resource for Gripper Training.

And now, I have amassed all the information anyone could possibly need in order to train with Grippers and develop a crushing grip.

And I know there are many of you out there who need help with Gripper Training.

From knowing what grippers to buy, to how to set them, to the number of reps to do, Gripper Training is the topic I am asked questions about most often, whether it is here on the site, through the newsletter, or on YouTube.

The fact is people love training with Grippers, and you can’t blame them, especially with the alluring Gripper certifications that are out there, like the Gripboard’s ever-growing Mash Monster Ladder and IronMind’s ever-evolving Captains of Crush list! It’s pretty damn cool to be part of an exclusive group.

I still remember driving to my witness’s location in order to get certified as a #3 closer, and when I mashed the handles of the Mash Monster 1 Gripper for several seconds was an even bigger day for me because my friends and training partners were there cheering me on.

Over the years, I have worked hard on grippers, since they are a key part of every grip contest. It’s important to get out of the gates on the right foot or else you’re battling back from behind right from the beginning.

And I also know there are hundreds of people who have their sites set on certification with the #3 Gripper, and many more who will try once they find out about it.

And even if certification and grip contests are not even near your radio, and you just want to use Grippers the right way to improve your grip strength for your job, your sport, or other reasons, this DVD will help you get there.

I want to help you all get there. That is why I have been working so hard on this Video the last two months.

Stay tuned, DIESELS. The wait will be over soon.

All the best in your training.

Jedd

The Vulcan Gripper

Friday, June 3rd, 2011

Here is a Vlog (Video Blog) about the Vulcan Gripper.

Are you in the United States and want a Vulcan? If so, leave a comment or email me about your interest.

Thanks.

UPDATES

Update #1 – Vulcan Pricing

I have received a note from David Horne – he could not get back to me yesterday because it was his little girl Lucy’s 5th birthday – HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCY!!! But I should have info from him next week on the Vulcan Gripper Shipping situation!

Update #2 – Reader Question

I received a question in the comments from Ken, who writes…

Jedd, Thanks very much for the vlog. I now understand how it compares with the Ivanko Super Gripper. What kind of range of difficulty is available on the Vulcan? What is the easiest level (cf. the Guide in the Captains of Crush series), if I want to do very high reps? Ken

The Vulcan will accomodate you, Ken, no doubt about it. At its lowest setting with the Gold Spring, it feels like less than a #1 to me and I can click off reps so fast it sounds like an old-fashioned typewriter, clickety click click click – Just never have to slide that big long piece back to the left when you reach the end. Also, at the toughest setting the feels like you are trying to squeeze a slippery moss covered rock. It covers just about the entire full range of available Grippers on the market. Hope this helps. More updates to come as they materialize! Jedd

P.S. Get on the Strongman Training DVD Early Bird List. Put your name and email in the box below.
