The Natural Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Nice work, Hugo! -Rex Quote "It would be simpler if they had two classes: open and handicapped. If you’re under 200 pounds, under 18 years old, over 50 years old, female, retarded, or missing any limbs, you have the option to compete in the handicapped class. Otherwise you lift in the open class."
ewokhugo Posted April 10, 2009 Author Posted April 10, 2009 thanks Rex! Quote Hugo Sá e Castro 33, 6"0", 200 lbs.
stump Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 "A few degrees" That bolt is dead soon. Good work. Quote
d.sides Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Nice Hugo! I'm in as soon as I can bend again. Quote
ewokhugo Posted April 10, 2009 Author Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) great Doug! this is the Edgin u have send to me:-) hope u can bend soon ! "Stump":thanks for your positive words! i think Matt and Darin may accept Luuc's Challenge:-) in fact it was more like a one to one challenge but this way looks more interesting i will not to be worried to bend the Edgin "every time" ...maybe 2/3 + times till end off the month(or less)(i want to bend the shiny aswell just to see how far/close i am from it). i would be happy to bend under 3 mn the big bastard if i get the "felling"(this month),lets see.

easyWeight Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Awesome Hugo!!! Yes, I'm up for the challenge! I just need to get a hold of a 7" triangle Edgin. The only ones I've found so far are black with a little 'n' on them, and the one I tried yesterday, only the threads bent. I have one 6" triangle, but I don't think I'm ready to try that yet I also have some 8" Edgins that are "JH". Anyone try either of those? Quote der Bär My YouTube
matthcarl Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Bah I wanted to go for the Edgin last week, but then I realized I didn't have any. Quote Name: Matt Carl Runner, Graphomaniac, Steel Bending Fiend

ewokhugo Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Matt: how far can u go with the 7" triangule? Perry: thanks bro; i loved this "bend/not full (yet); gave it around 12-15 hits but after 90 deg (+-) its 4.75" now ( betwen the legs now) i gas out and stopped.:-) Quote Hugo Sá e Castro 33, 6"0", 200 lbs.
matthcarl Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Matt: how far can u go with the 7" triangule? I've gotten one down to maybe 3.5", and that was before I could crush the Shiny, so I think I'd have a better shot now. Quote Name: Matt Carl Runner, Graphomaniac, Steel Bending Fiend
ewokhugo Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) Mike: thanks a lot! Matt: glad to know ! next time i will try my best. the kink and sweep its MUCH harder than the shiny , BIG difference! what about the crush? arent the NEW shiny easier than the old ones?(because caolan said the crush its around shiny/big shiny level ...)

matthcarl Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) the kink and sweep its MUCH harder than the shiny That's why you have to SUPERKINK it!!! Edited April 11, 2009 by The Writer Quote Name: Matt Carl Runner, Graphomaniac, Steel Bending Fiend
David_wigren Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Mike: thanks a lot! Matt: glad to know ! next time i will try my best. the kink and sweep its MUCH harder than the shiny , BIG difference! what about the crush? arent the NEW shiny easier than the old ones?(because caolan said the crush its around shiny/big shiny level ...) I would say that the crush of the edgin is about the same as big shiny. But the kink however is much harder. It was much harder than the old shiny's and it is much harder than the new shiny's. Though I have to agree strongly that the new shiny's are easier than what they use to be (at least how they where from a year ago) so the gap between the shiny and edgin might seem bigger now. Quote
cberg Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 looks like alot more than a few degrees to me man . the crush is tough, but I think the kink and sweep zaps alot of energy, making the crush harder than it should be. keep hittin that piece until its done. shouldnt be too long now Quote Caolan Berg age: 21 height: 5'8 weight: 200
ewokhugo Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Matt: usually i dont have prob with the kink ,but i am interest to learn more about the "mighty" :"superkink"! i know u have one video teaching how to do it! i 'd like to have someone teaching how to crush one heavy bar ...by far my weakest point. David: thats what i thought!:-) thanks for sharing! Caolan: thanks man! finally i am training my crush thanks to your last advice!:-) Quote Hugo Sá e Castro 33, 6"0", 200 lbs.
