The BHSA bending has come into line with the FBBC and Gripboard certs and lists. We still have the Reverse and Double Underhand sections, but the Double Overhand section has changed to Freestyle which incidentally it always was prior to my lists. Obviously most athletes will still use the Double Overhand style, as this is for many the most proficiant unbraced bending style. The Double Overhand style will be similar to the Crawl in swimming, in which it is used exclusively in the Freestyle section. We have taken this decision to not only come into line with the overall bending scene, but to stop any injuries coming about by athletes who are not flexible enough for the Double Overhand style. All bending rules are here. www.davidhorne-gripmaster.com/bending.html

As per my chat with David we think that this is another step in unification of our sport. I have seen some very hot and somewhat silly discussions on bending styles and several members became very irate over whether or not underhand or over hand was better... unreal.
