Fascinated by grip training

I'm currently learning about grip training more and more. I find it's well within my capacities because I have a very bad knee. What resources can anyone recommend to learn more about grip sports, grip competitions. How can I compete? Training? This is absolutely a sport I can train in and I can compete (one day). Any info leads are greatly appreciated

I currently train with grippers and lots of forearm training (forearm curls, brachialis curls, pronation/supination, etc, and single finger training also)

Diy No-Knurling Gripper

Instead of buying a gripper with no knurling, I scraped the knurling off of one of mine

COC 1.5 any tips on getting stronger?

My wife got me COC 1.5 for Christmas 🎄 I can get it with my right hand not so much with my left lol. I have another gripper that goes up to 88lbs of resistance. Wondering what everyone does to get stronger at this? The goals to one day hit the COC 3 and maybe even beyond.

When to move up to next highest gripper?

I've reached 20 reps per hand with the 100 lb grip. I thought this would be the time to try for 5 reps / 150 lbs. Shocked to find I can barely squeeze it half way. What are your recommendations?

190kg/418lbs double overhand Axle Deadlift

The gym I train at just got an axle with Knurling so I had to see what I could do. This is quite a bit easier than the other axles we have. But super fun anyways.
