Red in half IMPs

Getting back into the Bending Pool.

No warmup bend.  Red in half IMPs...around 40 seconds.

The smaller diameter made them pretty slippery.

Not amazing...but happy enough for a comeback trail bend. :)

That's a pretty sick bend, jumping back into it like that ... especially without a warmup.  Nice!!

To Nate or anyone else with experience with sub IMP bending:

Is a bend with less than IM singles considered solely a cool feat of strength and pain tolerance? Or could bends like this be used to toughen up the hands to train for bigger bends in IM singles?

It has its place. Before I certed the red I worked on doing it with cut down IMPs. I don't know if cutting them in half would help much as it would make the dynamics a bit different. Almost to a point of turning it to a completely different beast. But maybe cutting them down to 3/4 would help. But then again if you can bend a red in half IMPs, you're definitely going to be able to smash a red in complete IMPs no problem.
