    I think having no sway bar would have helped alot of times traction wise on some of the tougher trails.

    Stikl mad props to everyone for running every trailand minimal damage all day!
    Blake brought his on himself, if hed listened he would have a tailight still :p

    Hahaa..

    I think we said about 3 times. "This spot is a little tricky, you may want to come watch how we are going to run this....."

    When I saw you go thru, I was like WTF. That's not even close :D

    I may be the worst camera man ever!

    Blake this was first attempt at trail 28 solo. Failed badly at trying to turn around.

    There are a few more pics that I need to post from my passenger's camera.

    Eh not sure, iirc we crossed palmetto crossing. There were a few rock gardens i wanted to do but didnt get around to, id say we covered 80% of the park if not more. Obviously we did heartbreaker, sidewinder, skirts & studs, lil devil, rebel blvd are some tht come to mond right away

    There weren't any in our group and honestly a pre runner would have some trouble with the park. They could do some of the perimeter trails but anything diamond or above wouldn't be advisable.

    Hope to see you next time, I'm itching to go back this Saturday :D

    Good luck man. I have been on the hunt for a set for a good 3 months now and I haven't really come up with anything. Closes I got to getting a set was having them shipped from Australia and that may or may not have even worked out lol.

    My advice is to dump it all together. Watching that one video of you it looked like you were about 2-3 inches from losing it haha

    This looks like a sweet park and it is somewhat close. I am getting closer to having all the suspension parts I need but I will need new tires bad regardless lol. Pretty sure they drove Jesus around a few times they are so damn old.
