David_wigren Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Today was a very special day for me I met with the ironmind witness Kristian, and his work buddy Henrik. Two really nice guys. Bent all 3 red nails fast. But here is the bad news. I recorded all the bends along with a very fast st.croix size 2 horseshoe bend, But when I got home I looked through all the phottage and had to check the size of the files. As I did that I accidentally hit "low level format" tried to stop it by pressing abort, but it didn't help. All the vids are gone And thoose bends where beautiful! Fast and just great! Can't beilive I did that!.. But I'm still extatic about the cert. Hope everything goes well with the shipping of the nails to ironmind. The first bend was done in just over 9 seconds. Had a really bad start and it took about 3 seconds just to get the nail moving and after that I slipped at about 90 degrees. But it was fast. Next bend was done in 6.5 seconds stil a pretty bad start but it melted once it started to move. The third and final one was the fastest and I clocked it to exactly 6.07 seconds. Only clocked it once when I went through the fotage, so around 6 seconds. It was still a bad start but alot better than the other 2. Man, Can't express my mixed emotions. I apologise for me being such a dumbass and formating it, I know Alawadhi wanted to see that bend. But still I DID IT!!! THE RED DRAGON GOT ITS ASS KICKED!!! IT IS DONE!!
