Counting down to 2012

By Rob • Dec 29th, 2011 • Category: ModBlog

Why do I have a funny feeling REM’s “It’s End of the World” is going to be played over and over again next year?  Alright, it’s just about that time, the BME New Year’s Eve party is just a few days away!

Now, the BME NYE Party, if it’s anything close to what it was like last year, will definitely be a blast.  We’ll have fireworks, food and drinks, and some of the most awesome people around.  Suspensions are going to be facilitated by Cere, as well as other qualified facilitators, so if you want to start the new year off by hanging from hooks, you can do it!  Now food and drinks will be provided, but just the bare minimum (burgers, hot dogs, soda, snacks etc) so feel free to bring along anything else you want.  There’s lots of room for tents on the property, and quite a few hotels just down the road near King’s Dominion (Just outside of Richmond, VA).

I’m off to pack up my bags.  I’m looking forward to seeing all of you there!

Turn the other cheek

1 point ass suspension.  I don’t think anything else needs to be said.

I love how The Sinner Team mounts a camera right to the rigging.

Update:  Here’s the video..

It’s time to play “Name That Suspension”

By Rob • Dec 28th, 2011 • Category: ModBlog

I’m just going to come right out and say it.  I love The Sinner Team.  They’re consistently pushing the limits of suspension, while keeping safety the number one priority.  They’re also coming up with new ways to hang people all the time.  Add to all that their willingness to learn, and a flair for the dramatic, and you’ve got one of the finest teams working together right now.  That all said, here’s one of their latest suspensions, an 18 point…  something.

Technically it looks like it could be called an inverted-vertical coma, but that’s a bit of a tongue twister.  What about “The Leap of Faith Suspension”?  Given that it looks like she’s jumped off something backwards, and is falling headfirst but unable to see the ground.

For those of you who are curious about the hook placement, The Sinner Team provided this photo showing you the exact positioning.

A big thanks to Polina Krasnova for getting this suspension on camera.  From what I can tell she’s become The Sinner Team’s official photographer.

What she said

By Rob • Dec 28th, 2011 • Category: ModBlog

I have no idea what this says, so you’ll have to ask Nixiie.  What I do know is that it was done by Ryan Ouellette from Precision Body Arts in Nashua, NH.

Branding Iron Mike

By Rob • Dec 27th, 2011 • Category: ModBlog

Yep, that’s exactly what it looks like.  A branding version of Mike Tyson’s infamous tattoo.  The same tattoo that almost stopped Hangover 2 from being released earlier this year.

Branding by Dan Devoid from Lucky 13 Tattoo & Piercing Studio, in Ipswich, Suffolk
