Elite Series Certification Rules
Elite Certifications will be based on two types of crush.
TNS Close
This is 'Table No Set' which is closing the hand gripper from fully open using one hand only with no set. This type of close out ranks a setting block close.
Set Close
This close allows a 'Set'. Using your free hand you can position the hand gripper in the gripping hand. The starting position can be no narrower than 30mm, the width of the GOG Setting Block. The setting block must clearly be shown fitting in between the legs of the hand gripper, then removed before commencing the crush.
Repetitions
We are allowing multiple repetitions that will be held in a leaderboard style. Each repetition for both TNS & Set closes must follow the rules for each attempt. There is a 60 second time limit from the beginning of the first repetition, after this any attempts will be invalidated.
Certification Levels
Men can certify on Elite 6 & Elite 7.
Women can certify on Elite 3 and above.
