The Grand Is Dead!

Recommended Posts

Hey everybody, another amazing bending day today. 3 new PRs!!! First I took down the FBBC 1/4" x 5" Square and I think I'm the first certified (although obviously not the first to bend this ;))!!

Then I took down the Grand!!!!
I caught up to you Jeremiah and I'm in the hunt for the Mag!!!! Oh and on this bend, I realize I said the wrong thing at the end of the vid, too much adrenaline I guess :D I then took down a 6.5" Red
and I forgot to turn the light so the lighting on the wrapping kind of sucks, but I think you can still see everything. This was definitely a great day and I want to thank (as I did in the vid) Gazza and Kel for all of the inspiration and Aaron for all of the help he's given me in the last 7 months, I'd be lying if I said I'd be where I am today without you man so thanks :rock :rock :rock

Dammit wrong forum, can someone please move this? Sorry guys

Sensational, Derek!

Slightly different subject here, but the more I train the 2" v-bar the more your 240 pound pulls really start to annoy... I mean impress me.

Thanks man!! Out of curiousity would that 5" Square get me on the 5" list? Since after all it is harder than a G8.

Haha where'd you see that at? The Goerner post about the griptogether? Haha yeah that's a very good lift for me. Aaron was pissed because he thought it was utterly ridiculous and he expected Eaton would be mad, not you though :D;) Sorry man, i guess I'm good at 2" Vbar, but don't worry you're still miles ahead of me at nearly everything else :D

Wow....From all the recent videos, it is quite clear to me that "The Force is strong in this one". Very well done Derek :flame Guess I gotta get back to work, for I tried my first Mag the other day and put a massive 10-15 degrees of damage into it :D Between you, Foxman, myself, and a few others, I wonder who'll be the first among us to become the next Mag bender. I have got pretty good crush strength, but watching your videos, it's tough to beat your technique on the kink.

DAMN. Dude I gotta get in on this soon, I am starting to feel like I am standing still compared to you guys. Outstanding, keep it up man, it doesn't seem like you are slowing down, it seems like your progress is accelerating more quickly now than ever.

Which was the harder bend do you think? Which had the harder crush, it seemed like the Grand was almost easier on the crush than the square.

Just out of curiosity if I can crush a 5.5" square down to like 1.5" how far into the cut down bastards would you say that puts me so far as the crush is concerned?

Jeremiah, thanks man I had to up the intensity to get this bend! WHo do you think'll get it first out of me, you, Brad, and CaptainCrush or whatever his name was?

Tim, thanks a lot.

Tim I., thanks man I just hope I can keep it up to get this Mag. I'd say the Grand had a harder kink but the 5" Square had a harder sweep and crush. Grand probably harder overall though. Probably about where I am, I could crush the 5.5" Square to about there too and you see where I am.

Thanks TK

Aaron, yeah I guess you will man, I hope to have at leat the Mag by then :D
