Martin Gaisser Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 So the starting back to bending has been going slow, lots of side tracks and hiccups but I’m hanging in there. I’m a DO bender and have always struggled with Reverse and especially DU. I’ve honestly attempted these two styles probably 20 times at most because I’d get so discouraged. I have recently got somewhat interested in Reverse but no real training. A few weeks ago I watched a tutorial video by Jason Steeves in the Important Bending Video thread. If your struggling with this style I would highly recommend watching the video it worked wonders for me. So today after a failed DO attempt at what should have been a warm up for me in the past I picked up a 60d and tried this reverse style and I melted it fast. I was shocked it went down so easy so I wrapped up a G5 to give it a try and it went down without much struggle. That’s by far my best Reverse bend even though I know it’s not that impressive. Lol. So I think I’m gonna start adding Reverse into my training from now on. DU on the other hand....screw that. Lol. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just never felt like I could put any power into the bar using other styles. His style is dead on for me. Now if I could just reverse an Insane like Booyah I’d be really proud.

I always struggled with the shorter bends so that would really be something! Not many has done the 4”. I still remember when I saw Ben ”I think my bones moved” Edwards do it many years ago Great bend Martin!! Onward to that hateful G8 bolt! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might wrap one up in a few and see if I can even put a wiggle wobble in it. Lol I have no doubt you'll accomplish that goal. Heck if my lazy American arse can almost get one I know the blood of a pure born Swede can do it. Lol Keep killing it brother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
