Bending

10/30/11
First bending session in a long ass time.  (1st anything session actually, I ruptured the bursa sac on my right elbow)
Warmed up with Monster Mini Band work for shoulders and arms
60D spiral X 1 DO IMP
G2 1/4 X 6 X 1 DO IMP
1/4 square X 6 X Fail DO IMP
1/4 square X 6 X 1 DO IMP + Tandy suede (easy so I don't know if it's technique or mental in IMPs)
G2 3/8 X 8 X big fail DO in doubles (ridiculous attempt for where I'm at but it was in my bag)
G2 5/16 X 6 X fail DO IMP didn't even wobble it
David Horne Wrist Developer (WD) with white spring.  I can't find a levels chart so the first number is the notch on the front arm, second number is the notch on the rear arm.
1/1 X L/R
1/2 X L/R
2/1 X L/R
2/2 X L/R
3/2 X L/R
2/3 X L/R
3/3 X L/R X 3 sets

  2. With the WD the White, Orange, Blue and Red Springs all start at level 1 when at the lowest notches. First number is the front pin, second the back.

    L1 - 1/1
    L2 - 1/2
    L3 - 2/1
    L4 - 2/2
    L5 - 2/3 And so on
    Crap I just noticed I wrote these backwards! Just fixed it

    The White, Orange, Blue are all weaker than standard so colour is usually indicated when describing the level.

    The other springs have different difficulties plus the setting difficulty increases with the spring type but the closing strength is equalized with these levels:

    L1 Start - Red
    L3 Start - Black dip, Black/Red, Black, Gold
    L4 Start - Wasp

    With the new Crom spring I think they're starting with L1 but indicating it's a Crom but by al accounts it sounds like it would be like starting at L6.
