Actually... if you wanted to grip the middle couldn't you have a couple ropes and a plate on either side if it was wide enough? Could easily do things like wrapping in a towel for thicker grip without worrying about dropping the contraption too. Since it spins independently, if you let go it will spin and the plate will lower as opposed to the whole doing going bang. Actually, if the fall is decelerated, does that mean that this has more of a concentric than an eccentric component? *tries to figure what it would look like doing these with a pronated grip to build thumb and wrist extensors* Dang, this is so simple and yet… not obvious. pretty cool too how it allows a much wider bar and stuff.
