Been doing this arms superset now with pretty good results. Out of boredom really and it's a fast, light workout.

I use the fat bar and do reverse curls, overhead triceps extensions, overhead press. Stopping only to change grip between exercises. I'll do about 12 reps of each, 20kg is plenty for me. I'll drink some water then go again

With these extension's you've got to use enough weight that is heavy enough to apply a good amount stretch, you got to get and hold your arm behind the head, your hands need to be basically touching the tarps.

I was doing and occassionally throw in a similar workout, but i will do skull cruches SS with close grip bench (high reps) and it smashes the tris...
 
I just like to make sure I do a (1) heavy move either dips or close grips, (2) an overhead move either rope extensions or single arm db extensions and a (3) pushdown usually with the rope or single arm reverse grip.

This might not be in one session or necessarily in one week, but I like to regularly work my tri's within these 3 categories.

The machine (cable or freeweight) that I miss is where you strap yourself in with a seat belt and then push down hammer grip style. I found it better than actual dips, at least from a 'feeling' it work perspective. However, my current fitness first doesn't have anything of the sort.
