Adam Moyers Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I tried a Bastard tonight and couldn't kink it. The Red seems easy compared to a Bastard I have to work on exploding into the bar, I think I'm still applying more pressure until it kinks instead of exploding. Anyway, Hugo mentioned I need to bend a red in under 2 minutes to get the gripboard cert, so I gave it a try tonight. I got it in under two minutes, but I'm not sure of all the rules for the gripboard cert. If this qualifies then good, if not maybe I will get it some other time. Either way its a improvement from my last Red bend. One of my friends found one of my mothers old sweaters in the garage and decided to put it on during my bend. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iakdscyYX1Q...re=channel_page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumpster Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Great bend! I feel the same way about the red compared to the bastard. I can barely wobble the bastard but the red felt easy by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
