The 2025 U.S. Grip Sport Nationals was held in St. Clairsville, Ohio on May 31st. The events contest were: The Silver Bullet, 2" Saxon Bar Deadlift, 2" Country Crush, and Little Bighorn. The Women's Overall podium saw Sarah Chappelow take 1st Place, with Melissa Dingey 2nd, and Sara Saffell 3rd. For the Men's Overall podium Jason Dingey took 1st, Jedd Johnson 2nd, and Luke Raymond in 3rd. Jason Dingey and Sarah Chappelow after these performances are now the current National Champions as well as the North American Champions (which they won in Canada last year... with North Americans being held every 2yrs. etc.) This was one of the biggest turnouts numbers wise for a Grip Sport Nationals and probably the strongest in the organizations history. Thank you to Jason and Melissa Dingey and Mike and Sara Saffell for running such a great competition. Thank you to all the competitors that helped make this one of the most exciting, strongest, and competitive competitions of 2025.
