      Here’s all of today’s certification videos 💪🏻😜

      Todays session didn't go 100% according to plan but was still pretty freakin solid! The focus was DO and Reverse but I did do one really big braced bend to test out my leg. It was probably stupid to test an injury by shooting for a PR but hey it paid off lol I started things off with DO and those bends went as follows: FBBC Shiny Bastard FBBC Golden Hexabastard FBBC Sexabastard FBBC Duke Of All Bastards Horrido 10.9 (failed at 4" which is incredibly annoying considering I have gotten a 6.5" 10.9 to 3.5")    I wanted to give my chest a break so I switched to Reverse and those bends went as follows: 1/4x6" triangle stamped Grade 8 IronMind Red Nail from around 2014-2015  FBBC Shiny Reverse Bastard FBBC Reverse Golden Hexabastard FBBC Reverse Hexabastard (kinked slightly but failed. These CRS hex bars are a seriously evil batch.)   Switched back to DO to shoot for a couple more certs: FBBC Huge Duke Of All Bastards (failed at 3.75" which is incredibly annoying considering I have gotten a KOAB to 3.5") 3/8x12" 120d bright nail for the ECGB unbraced nail roster   Finally, I wanted to try out one of my new 7/16x7" Grade A bolts. I gave it some hard hits unbraced in hopes I could at least get a little movement but the thing didn't even acknowledge my existence. However, I had been meaning to test out my leg since it has been a while now since I injured it on the ECGB 15/32x12" drill rod so I resorted to leg crushing this gigantic bolt. It took 14 minutes of fighting it but I did eventually get it to within 2"! These things are significantly tougher than a 12.9 so they will remain braced bolts for a good long while. The following is the aftermath of the session, the measurement of the 7/16 bolt, and my Shiny Bastard and Golden Hexabastard in Every Way trophies:

      Thanks John!  They were both super happy and proud of their achievements.  Very exciting and fun to share grip sport with them.
