NEW Small Grabber Competition
The challenge was to extract a small Cyclone Chain from the box in under 5 minutes, which sounded easy. But our Technical Manager Olav Törnroos had designed a fiendish challenge with many twists and turns and even a couple of traps to make the task nearly impossible!
With the new design of the Small Grabber giving options including a hook, a magnet and a small and flexible "grabber" design, there are more tricks available for extracting lost tools than ever before
The new Small Grabber is coming soon, so watch this space!
1st Place: Christos Antoniou (Green Moles) with a time of 00:55.19 seconds!
2nd Place: Sean Wilson (APS) with a time of 1:41.81 seconds
Congratulations to everyone who rose to the challenge!
We hope to see you in Finland for the
