Great stuff. Sweepstake on the grade? I reckon not as hard as we might imagine.

I was there when Ned was trying this and it looked massive and v scary! 6 pads minimum. looked like height might help, another chap was trying it who cut loose completely whereas Ned's left hand stays low. A great addition

Has this got a name? The Jack, The King, The Queen, The Bridge Scoring Card?

Or he's just strong enough to hold a low lock and technically good enough to time the movement just right. He's not a giant by any stretch of the imagination.

Impressed with how controlled he looks in that vid, top effort.

Looks brilliant, and easy in that clip!

Jack/king/Queen/eight of Hearts?

Had Polish Dave tried this a bit in the past (he's not short, nor weak)? and perhaps Huffy too (no weakling either)?

I always thought it'd involve having to use the poor seam/crimps to the left but obviously not. Good effort to the Champ! The landing is appalling.

Fucking nice work!

Fiend · February 15, 2016, 10:25:45 am

I was guessing Ned from the 2nd post, good effort that man, he's on fire at the mo. Well, not literally like Shark's hand, but you know what I mean...

Did I read "somewhere between 7a and 9a" on social media somewhere?

dave · February 17, 2016, 08:13:38 am

Think Ned is saying 7c-ish on the old instantgrammar. Which means it's not even the hardest FA on grit this weekend. Move along people, nothing to see here.
