deaner Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think if anything is easier for you than DO than you aren't DO'ing right. DO to me takes the wrists almost entirely out of the bend. I start reverse and if I can't get it at least halfway from that then it's no good (Deane house rules). I have not really trained or practiced DO but can easily DO a grade 8, I have a strong upper body. My best starting reverse is a 5.5" grade 8 and DU is a average 60d. In the video that i've posted bending the grade 8 I use mostly DO because I failed to really "bend" the bolt with reverse. Still, a red bent any style is very impressive. I've only kinked 'em. I have 25 brand new ones waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishred Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 nothing causes pain in my wrists like reverse style...bending reverse is super intense..... ← It is intense but this style just made me my new pr tonight i bent a 60d nail using reverse and i feel great lol " if there are two types of 60ds it is the easier one, the one with the wafflehead but i at least got one now ← good job on the 60d you bastard....so much for taking some rest after a bending session.
