Last Nights Bending

[Adam Moyers]

My bending went pretty well last night. I did shoulder dislocates before and after bending and I have no pain in my shoulders today. I bent three 6"x1/4" grade 8's with the heads cut off in about 12 minutes, I was hoping to get them in under 10 minutes. I pulled my wraps off to check them way too many times. I bent a 6" piece of 5/16" hrs after the grade 8's. This is the first piece of 5/16" I've got to 2 inches or less. I tried out my Jason Payne crush pads for the first time on this bend. They are a top quality product but will take some time to get used to. After I turned the camera off I put them back on and crushed it to less than 1". I finished up with two yellow nails in IM wraps.

Nice bends man, second video doesn't work though.

By the way, are you sure it's HRS and not CRS? If it's HRS it's probably pretty hard.

Good luck on the bastard!!

[Adam Moyers]

Thanks luuc! The second video works for me. Yes its HRS, I've tried a red nail and a bastard before but couldn't get either so I bought some 5/16" hrs. I know HRS is easier than CRS. But how much easier?

awesome Job Adam!

really good work(and fast) with the g8's!

u should nail the red soon ,all u need its to bend more 7"stock!:-)

[Adam Moyers]

Thanks Hugo! I said I will try a Bastard next time, but I think I will try a red since they are a little easier. Does anyone know what a 6" piece of 5/16" HRS would calibrate?

Thanks for the list Hugo. Now that I think about it, the 6" HRS took longer than the red. But I tried it towards the end of my workout.
