James Larkins Reverse Bending Log


Jlark27

Recommended Posts

I have decided to create a log to track my bending progress. little history about me. I started bending DO off and on throughout my 20’s but didn’t actually take it seriously until 2018. After a few months I certified the Red nail and was progressing quickly but my back and neck (annular tear in my spine and herniated disk in my neck) got the best of me, so I quit bending in 2019.
 

Fast forward to July 2024, I am back at it again, but this time strictly Reverse bending. Still dealing with the neck and back issues, but the reverse bending is much more manageable.

6’ @175lb body weight.

Best bends from 2018 include:

- 5 1/2” Red Nail in IMP DO

- 6” red nail in one IMP DO
 

My current short term goals include:

- DHWOG CERT - Grade 8 bolt 1/4” x 6” in one IMP

- DHWOG CERT - Grade 5 bolt 1/4” x 5.5” in one IMP

- FBBC 1/4” x 6” in IMPs touching

 

All bends will be reverse style with either one IMP or IMPs touching in the middle.
