Josh O'Dell Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Buccos1 sent me a new rednail in the mail to try, I received it today and must say there a good bit harder than the reds I remember from a few years back! Seem to be alot shinier also. Thanks for sending this to me buddy ! Here's the video. Edited February 14, 2017 by Josh O'Dell 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joefrey Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Good job man! The more I read about the new reds, the more I stress myself! Certification attempt is scheduled on 25th February and I've never touched any new ones. I'll have to put all my might that day ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't stress to much you will get it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joefrey Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Thank you man ! I bought yellow, blue and red nails in 2013. I've bent 9 red's in cert conditions last 2 months (all bent in 20 to 50 seconds; 30mm spread between legs). I bend S8 from Silvis more easily than red's (the 180 mm ones). We'll see what I can do ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job! I have never tried the Silvis steel, just make sure you are completely rested and take some warm up steel before your official attempt! When I certed I bent the red in 7sec. I'm not sure how fast I would've bent the new ones back then haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joefrey Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) I've cut 1cm (3/8 inch) off a Silvis S8. Took me 33 sec to bend it. Clearly much harder than an old red. Got some reassurance about the cert ! Maybe I'll do the same with the last red I have. Edited February 16, 2017 by Joefrey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most brutal thing I ever did with a red with bend it cut at 5 1/2in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely harder than the older Reds, but with injury-free training and proper rest leading up to cert-day, cert. adrenaline should give you the extra edge to take it down (if you're in the realm of 440-450lbs.). On my cert day, I couldn't even feel my hands (or the bar) I was so amped up. I actually thought it was a Yellow, mistakenly wrapped up instead of the Red. Good luck with the cert. and kill it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joefrey Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Thank you man! Yesterday's bending session was OK. It was the last one before cert (I bend once a week) so I should get proper recovering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
