Former WSM champ to compete in grip competition

According to Ironmind: ''Janne Virtanen confirmed his entry to the Finnish Open Grip Strength''. Info previously posted has the events as
  1. Rolling Thunder
  2. Europinch
  3. Captains of Crush
  4. Apollon's Axle Deadlift

The structure will follow a strongman comp with the top 8 after the first two events going through to the finals. From personal experience I know that WSM level guys have great grips but not necessarily enough all round grip strength to win. That's without specialized training... with... another story.
