Chez Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Thanks guys. Its taken me a lot longer than with anything else, but I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of Double overhand. I still have a long way to go though. I have been cutting back on bench pressing and its really helping my flexibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broly Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 on the heals of Chez's awesome feat I was able to finally get a Red Nail in Singles. My hands are starting to feel better conditioned. Also got an M Bar right before in singles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL58dGjSDdU&list=UUk_N1Rh4mMVc-NN-yGzY6Jw&index=1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acromegaman Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Here's my first attempt at a cert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLGtGRs68Nk&feature=youtu.be and a failed attempt on a double wrapped 3/8"x8" HRS bar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLaOD3dukT4&feature=youtu.be A big thanks to Tom Scibelli and Stephen Ruby for the stock! Hopefully I didn't butcher Tom's name in the video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Ruby Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 You melted that bastard! Those are really hard stock also, great job. Really solid attempt on that huge 3/8 piece of steel also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acromegaman Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Thanks Stephen. I think I'm going to start to start working my way down in the lengths on the bastards and I really like messing with that 3/8 stock. I might have to get some from Home Depot and work my way up to this stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acromegaman Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Here's my latest failure. LOL.

His name is Herbert Thomas and I'm not sure if he has ever come across nail bending before. He seemed fascinated by it in his emails.

acromegaman Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Thanks Matrixsleeper! I seen your last video and you've made some hellacious progress along the way. You might be one of, if not the lightest guys on the list! I believe you'll have it this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be one of, if not the lightest guys on the list! I believe you'll have it this year. Thanks! I'm really curious who the lightest guy is on the red nail roster and when I go for my attempt if I'll be the lightest. Weighed myself this morning sitting at around 145lbs.

acromegaman Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 If I were to guess, I would say you're at least in the top 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't speak with certainty, and he was summarily removed from the Red Roster, but Derek Greybill was like 155# back in his bending days. At 145 you will probably be the lightest. I also have a friend that weight who is getting closer to a cert, maybe in winter at the earliest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
