burner Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 (edited) Hey guys, Strossen is taking his time calling me back so i decided to tape a red nail bend in the IM's. It's my first video for the board, it's definitely not Diesel Crew qualtiy but I hope u enjoy. The clarity is a bit fuzzy but you'll get the idea. I left the rubberbands on because I didn't have someone to cut them off. But to me it feels the same either way.. This was done with brand new wraps and a very beat up body.........I train westside . Peace, Burner Sean Sparandero http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=MOV0027931 Edited June 8, 2005 by burner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burner Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 (edited) To the GRIPBOARD, Well I received an e-mail from Dr. Strossen apologizing for the delay in contacting me. They were having some problems finding me an official witness. But man ohman did he come up with a whopper!! Dr. Strossen got me ARTIE DRECHSLER of the famous "LOST BATTALION GYM" in Queens, NYC. Artie is the author of the "WEIGHTLIFTING ENCYCLOPEDIA" as well as the PRESIDENT OF AOBS.!!! He is a major icon in one of the most famous gyms in weightlifting history. This where I will cert on the IRONMIND RED NAIL!!.. I will be getting Artie's e-mail soon and the cert will most likely take place in 2 weeks on a saturday. NYC is just too hectic on weekday night at rush hour to travel I will post the date time and address as soon as I confirm with Artie. All those in the area are welcome to come..............What an honor.WOW!! I will send the video the video to wanna so it can be posted in the archives as soon as possible!! All the ass busting work is about to go down in history in style!! Peace, Burner Edited June 9, 2005 by burner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GatorGrip Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Well congratulations burner my friend and your absolutely right what an opportunity to not only certify but also meet a modern day legend at the same time. That is like having Arnold Schwarzenegger spot you for some bench presses and continue to work out with you for the session. Well burner if you bend those nails as fast as what I have seen then you will soon be one of the benders to remember. To bad you couldn't have all 3 certification nails all pre-wrapped as you could probably bend all three within that golden minute at your current bending time of 10-15 seconds for a Red Nail. I would say good luck but LUCK is when PREPARATION meets OPPORTUNITY and you have prepared yourself well to meet this opportunity with utmost success. One day in the future I hope to join you on that elite list so put it right in black and white. GatorGrip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burner Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 To the Gripboard, Ok it's official. The cert date is June 25th. I will be arriving at the Lost Battalion Hall at 4pm and Artie Drechsler is my witness. The gym is located: 93-29 Queens Blvd. Rego Park, NY 11374. If u live in the area come on down, I'm gonna try and add another gripboard name to the RED NAIL list!! ...........

burner Posted June 25, 2005 Author Share Posted June 25, 2005 To the GRipboard, Well I just got back from my red nail certification and I bent all three nails in about 10 sec. each, very easy. To make a long story short, it was a disappointing experience. Apparently, I intimidated a "world champion" that screwed up my video and basically acted like a jerk off. My witness could care less what I had done and all I wanted to do was leave. peace, Burner I'm sure you'll hear about it soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerbjr Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Good job Burner, now on to the FBBC stuff, sounds like you should be good for a 6in bend right off the bat. Dont worry about the other fellow as you are only responsible for your own actions....Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
