Yes, Ed's factory was in Holyoke MA. My Dad and my Uncle went there once and bought some weights and a bench, back in the early 70's.

i like how ed jubinville tested his equipment by having elephants stand on them. i heard grimek used to throw dumbells out the third floor window at york to test them.

The tricep bar i always wanted to get..still you can use Dbs in a hammer grip but i have seen these bars with hand grips you can adjust to diffrent angles.

yeah i've seen those too. they lock in place or something, i would think the grip might slip with those type of bars. multigrip curl bars i think they are called. how's this for a kettlebell?

Yes, I used them years ago at my original gym, which is the only facility I've known to have them. Some of the veterans there called it the geode bar. We had a plate-loaded barbell one, and a cable attachment version. I don't think they're dangerous. They do take some getting used to, though. The handles do not lock into position, but are meant to rotate to allow for adjusting supination/pronation during the movement, almost offering the benefits of dumbbells, but with the stability of a barbell. Imagine doing bilateral Zottman curls with a barbell. That ability is the principle behind this bar. It is an obscure piece of training equipment, for sure.
