10mmx7” (really 188mm) A2 rated 790 by Devin! I’m gonna be really loose with the definition of near miss and count 30 degrees of movement as qualifying😂😂😂

Super Peak early 2022 Derek Graybill is the only person who’s ever bent this DOH and I’d be surprised if more than a handful of people have ever put a bigger dent in one!

790 at 7” is an incredibly hard bend. Moving it at all is a great achievement. And bending one fully is nothing short of incredible.

So frustrating. The kink on this 6.5” 10.9 felt so easy compared to what I’m doing DU but I just couldn’t keep the damn thing moving all the way through the sweep. 🤦🏼‍♂️ got it to 3.5” before it just froze on me

Fml… all 3 of my biggest bends I had planned for today failed at basically the same spot. 13/32x6” stopped at 3.25”, 6.5” 10.9 stopped at 3.5”, and the KOAB stopped at just a little over 3.5” 🤦🏼‍♂️ the kink feels solid as hell but I just can’t keep the things moving from there

Holy moly those are some serious bends though. Putting the hurt on that KOAB while FBBC gets back up and running.

Thank you man lol and yeah I know I can’t be too upset because these would technically all be PRs if completed and they’re all huge bends. The kinks just felt so easy and I thought I could take down at least one of them today. Silver lining though, I got about an inch closer than my previous PR on a 10.9 DO so progress is progress. Just need my chest crush to get on the same level as my kink 😂
