Tom Scibelli strengthened his grip resume by earning his certification on the Crushed-to-Dust! Challenge, proof of an excellent all-around grip.

Scibelli is no stranger to the world of lower arm strength, as he certified on the IronMind Red Nail in 2013, and by showing his mastery of the Crushed-to-Dust! Challenge, he demonstrated that his grip strength is equal to nearly any real-world application where one’s grip could determine winning or losing, life or death.

The Crushed-to-Dust! Challenge has three components:

closing a No. 2 Captains of Crush gripper
lifting 20 kg/45 lb. on an IronMind Hub
lifting 90 kg/200 lb. on a Rolling Thunder

Congratulations, Tom—your name has been added to the Crushed-to-Dust! Challenge certification list—and many thanks to Nathaniel Brous (Red Nail Roster ‘13, CoC-3 ’14) for refereeing on Tom’s official attempt to complete the Crushed-to-Dust! Challenge.
