They bite into your hands; that's a fact The replica handles are generally fixed, so you have to hold them as they are. But the actual handles on the Dinnies themselves rotate, so you can have the longer edge, as it were, sat across your hand I've only done the reps and they're a swine when things start to get heavy; haven't hook-gripped them yet, but will try that this week... | ||

 what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10452 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq | hifilover said: No one has done it fully across without drops... Good! My pal Mark did this feat last year; the last metre or 2 with a snapped achilles tendon (hadn't realised at the time). The small stone swung and caught his ankle which you can make out towards the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctbkNsQKIQ0&t=1s His aim is to walk across with them in one go this year, a few other folk looking to attempt it too (Bryan Hunsaker from the States etc) Cant see the vid but that sounds rough! | ||

Click on the link; no idea why it's not showing imbedded His tendon healed as it'd been booted once he'd been into hospital; 3 months later he went up and picked em up again like 2 bags of shopping haha | ||

Could have sworn Bryan Hunsaker from America had longee than that, thought he did 37/38 seconds etc #edit he did 33.9 seconds, so what did James Crossley manage, or was it bang in 34 seconds? | ||

He has put down 34.58 seconds on his FB page, I only heard the old guy keeping time shout out 34 and give the nod the the record had been broken. https://www.facebook.com/jamescrossley401 He'd had two earlier attempts at 31 & 30 seconds respectively. | ||
