What is it exactly? Is it a special type of grip or just a normal fold over grip?

Something I've wondered: Is it named after Dan Gable? or does it have something to do with the way a gable roof looks?

Whats a granby wrestler?

Granby is a highschool thats been very successful in wrestling for a while. Their head coach, a while ago, taught his team the "granby roll"... which is a reversal. Its kind of risky but ALOT of average wrestlers dont know how to counter it well.

Im not from the granby school, i just thought it would be a cool screen name here.
