David_wigren Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I've reacently started bending horseshoes again and I've pretty much regained all the strength I had from when I left off. Kerckhaert SSP #3 (22mmx8mm)easy stuff Made a good attempt on a kerckhaert SN #3 front clipped (25mmx8mm) wich is pretty much a bad ass shoe. Ran out of time and couldn't finish it. It'll go down next time though Used a grenade pin to run the wraps through. Might not sit well with the rules, but it was what I had Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nockowt1 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Very impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 David, the Kerckhaert SSP #3 is not one of the shoes already ranked for the list. I don't recall ever bending one myself. Are you certain of where it would rank relative to the other shoes on the "Tornado" list? If not, and we decide it may bridge a gap somewhere, then I would certainly add it to the list. By the way, I have bent a Kerckhaert S #3... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I just watched the videos. You made child's play of the first one! And that last bend is obviously a BEAST! That's a heartbreak to come that close. David, have you bent the S #3? I'm curious how it compares to the two you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpmmkrahling Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) You made that seem way too easy That shoe is a monster and you bent it like I bend a St Croix Ultralight Maybe Eric could add the Kerckhaert's as a seperate list. Doesn't Carl bend those also? Edited October 31, 2009 by Mike K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_wigren Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Thank you guys I just watched the videos. You made child's play of the first one! And that last bend is obviously a BEAST! That's a heartbreak to come that close. David, have you bent the S #3? I'm curious how it compares to the two you did. Havn't bent a kerckhaert standard #3 but as I understand the specs of it is 20x8. So the SSP#3 22x8 is probably harder given that it has 10% more steel in it. But I don't know for sure. The only thing I know for sure is that it is harder than the st. croix lite rim #3, since that's the only shoe I've tried that's on the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickr104 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) I think the SSP shoes are hard. You don't make them look hard , but they are. Nice bending!! Edited October 31, 2009 by nickr104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't Carl bend those also? I'd like to be able to just incorporate some these shoes into the existing list. I'm going to get some and conduct a scientific study. I really want David to get credit for these crazy bends of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want David to get credit for these crazy bends of his. I I was thinking the same thing Eric. That shoe is much harder then the SC lite rim shoe I ddid. For me the SSP sheos are hard because the leg are short aand round out more. You lose a lot of leverage on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want David to get credit for these crazy bends of his. I'll gladly help you in that scientific study. I think this new hoeseshoe list is awsome. But I've had a hard time finding the right shoes that's currently on the lists. The price for shipping that some of theese companies are asking for is a bit too much. So I just went for the shoes that I have and can acuire easily and hoped for the best. Eric is obviously serious about this list and kind enough to fix and help to make everything fit so this will be a competitive list for all.
