      Also hand size, I'm sure that makes a big difference with some of these grips

      Whilst that matters for climbing, it doesn't matter here. They are just testing absolute grip strength for fun.

      @@R3FL3XSN1P3R I just said it would be interesting because while it's "just for fun" it gives you a better relative comparison. It doesn't matter either way, as you said, the whole thing is just for fun anyways.

      I think it got mentioned in an old Andrew McFarland video that he's around 5'7 with a 6ft wingspan or something nonsense like that. I could be wrong but I think it was something like that

    Wait if Louis has weak grip strength then are pinch holds his kryptonite? But we have seen him crush pinch routes in past videos, so Louis was either holding back on the grip measurement or he is secretly spiderman 🤔

    • @jturro
      @jturro ปีที่แล้ว

      Nah, that test was non-sense. Dan was literally stunned by the way Louis went about it with his instinctual finger tip technique and then Louis never tried deeper in his palm and lower with his fingers like Dan (and Dan never suggested it either). It would make a huge difference. As you can see when Louis pinched the crap out of everything else and keeping up with 2 dudes who weigh 40% more than he does.
