bencrush Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hell yeah Martin! You're already one of the fastest from Bastard to Magnificent now. Maybe THE fastest. When was your first Bastard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Gaisser Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hell yeah Martin! You're already one of the fastest from Bastard to Magnificent now. Maybe THE fastest. When was your first Bastard? Had to go back and look it up. 1/4" x 5" Grade 8 to the Magnificent has been 9 weeks. And I never have bent just the plain 7" Bastard. The first Bastard stock I bent was the Huge Bastard and from then to the Magnificent was 10 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are now part of the rare mutant breed of grip athletes, including other noteable characters such as Paul Knight, Rex Hubbard, etc who make all the rest of us look bad. I told you two weeks ago, just go for the KOAB, I seriously think you would put a good hurtin' on it. -Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Gaisser Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 Was looking through my old posts and realized I never posted my video on here of getting this bend in the 5 minute limit. I was still progressing pretty fast and was waiting to get the fantastic under 5 and post it instead the best I can remember. So here's my vid with all 1 youtube likes. LOL Must have been David or Mike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Gaisser Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 I would say it's just easier to get the initial kink and that's about it. I used doubles as a method of progression. Get it in doubles first then move to singles and that day I needed doubles to get the job done. Lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Good to see you're back at it, Martin! You mentioned the Fantastic...did you bend one? Or the Insane? If not, or even if you did, time to smash those goals again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best on the old “Ben”tastic as I liked to call it was to 60 degrees the best I can remember. I only tried it once before I got sick then injured several years ago. I had planned to cert on that one when I got it cause your name was sure lonely on that list for far too long and still is. Lol. I did get the insane in the 5 min limit. I think I did 2 or 3 of those. I think it is still possible but these last 8 years have wore on me pretty bad. Lol. Great to hear from you Ben. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at my young age. It always somehow tends to draw you back in. Well I wish you the best of luck in whatever bend you hope to achive. I look forward to seeing your come back and the destroying of the Magnificent bastard! Thank you. I’m gonna give it my best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
