bencrush Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 My first 5" Grade 5 DU was on the 24th. But I hit a bunch of short stock DU PRs yesterday and then DESTROYED a 4.5" Grade 5 to 55 degrees in 8 seconds. Got it on video for the David Horne cert list. I did 7 bends and 5 of them were PRs on length. Also did a 1/4"X3.75" CRS twice to the required 40 degrees plus DU within the 30 second time limit. Those bends were tougher than the 4.5" Grade 5! Now I wish I had tried a 4" Grade 5 before fatigue caught up with me. It might have fallen on its head. What's the shortest Grade 5 done DU? I know I'm not alone here but it's not even on David Horne's or John Beatty's cert list at the moment. Quote
