jpmmkrahling Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I read a little while back that John at FBBC was starting a new cert for the 8" Edgin as an un-braced bend. Has anyone done it yet, just curious if there is a "first person" on the list yet, next time he updates the listings. I just got mine today, and i was thinking og giving it a try on Friday!

Paul Knight Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I know Eric has done one - pretty sure it was a "Triangle" that he bought from Ace Hardware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmmkrahling Posted May 7, 2009 Author Share Posted May 7, 2009 OK, Thanks Paul . Now atleast i know there is no rush for me to do it right away. I'll put it off for a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Eric bending it years ago would put him on the list - I think its whoever turns a vid into John first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalachiMcMullen Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I bent them regularly when I was building up to the 7" version for a contest last year. The kink is tougher for less flexible folk but the crush feels about like a Shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Beatty Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I haven't checked the certs email in about 2 weeks, might get to it tomorrow night if the caseload isn't too bad at work. Unless someone has a cert in already, then I don't have anyone on that list yet. Only FBBC stock counts for FBBC certs. You can't bend a Red & count it for a Bastard cert, obviously.

John, could you let us know when you do get a chance to check your e-mail certs. If it is still open, i'll try one tomorrow night. If someone already did one, then i need to hit that grand shiny again. Decisions, decisions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Mike, don't waste your time on an 8" Edgin right now when you're so close to the Grand Shiny!!! An 8" Edgin is freaking child's play compared to the Grand Shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An 8" Edgin is freaking child's play compared to the Grand Shiny. Thank you for the advise, It means alot coming from someone that is already where i am trying to get to. I'll hit that Grand Shiny again (with a warm up bend this time) on Saturday afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Beatty Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Hasn't been done as of today. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
