Donc101 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Most painful unbraced bending I have ever done. It’s not even close. This is a Bastard bent in 1/3 of a IMP. I had never thought of doing this until Tommy Jennings @Tommy J. made a post about Hannes Kainz doing a Red like this. I watched his video and it really motivated me. I could not get the thought of doing this bend out of my head and I went for it tonight. I am very excited about this! I think Hannes and I are the only 2 to have done this. Video: Thanks for checking it out. Don 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeezus Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Incredible pain tolerance and power. That can't be too far from just barehanding it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much padding at all. I had to get in the right place mentally to do it. I was thinking about the bend and visualizing it all day to get ready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony C. Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 To those that don't or haven't bent, the difficulty of this is overlooked. I honestly watched this and thought to myself...no no no no no. NO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly damage in my palms from the ends of the bar. They are tore a bit. My hands are fairly tough and don’t tear to easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Pete Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I dont even want to understand how painful that was. Do you ever get scared when you are about to attempt these feats thats really pushing whats doable? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you ever get scared when you are about to attempt these feats thats really pushing whats doable? I had to get myself in the right state of mind because I knew big pain was coming. I wanted to do this bend but did not know when. I woke up and said I am doing it today. I thought about it all day and got myself pissed of enough to push through the pain. Thanks for checking it out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mike. Probably my favorite DO bend I have ever done. That bare-hand bending must have stung. Have a good day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
