liam.mccaffrey Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Persuaded the wife to let me film her trying a bend tonight. she doesn't do it much but has done done 1/4"x7" CRS a few times. I cut a piece of 1/4"x7" stainless and filmed her trying that. Its only a minute of the attempt, she made me stop filming when it wasn't going well, but she got it past 90 deg in the 5 mins linky Quote

gumpster Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 That's awesome you got your wife to try bending! I'm feeling weak now...I have never finished a piece of stainless (of any size) in under 5 minutes. She's probably not far behind me.

easyWeight Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) This is pretty cool My girlfriend told me not long ago that she may want to try to bend once too. I've got her started on grippers at least Edited April 16, 2009 by easyWeight Quote der Bär My YouTube
Sher Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I love to see what you guys can do, but it's nice to see another woman's efforts around here too. Too bad you didn't get the rest of the bend on vid! Next time perhaps...?

liam.mccaffrey Posted April 16, 2009 Author Posted April 16, 2009 we are gonna get some more stock and film that, i reckon she could get a 6.5"x1/4" CRS pretty easily, ive started her on crush down isos now for the stainless It cool there is another girl bending, she really thought people would laugh at her. Thank you it will mean a lot to her Quote
Tim71 Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Super strong bend! Tell her great job and I'm impressed by that. Tim Quote

Thank you it will mean a lot to her Good! Can't wait! Sorry I wasn't clear, but I'm not into bending specifically (grip for powerlifting, yes!). It doesn't really matter though, IMO. It's a strength skill and anytime someone, male or female, decides to see what they can accomplish in it, they win. Also, it's all just really cool. Please tell her she looked very strong and I was disappointed not to get to see her finish it out. That's saying something because I'm still on dial-up of all things and I wait forever to watch vids!
