    You guys ran it backwards also which makes a difference.
    I straddled it for about 1/3 of it or so then slipped into the rut. It has gotten deeper and there was one part that the RF wheel lifted quite a bit off the ground.
    You need a some tire poking out as well that does more than sliders in the rut there and the way it's cut in there. But we can get you straddled and crawling up that way you won't need any of it. I didn't have a spotter and we were running it at night I was following my buddy on tons and 40s.

    I straddled it too and fell in about half way, turning the front tire into the back and bounced up it, not a scratch.

    Which one you looking at? I'm not a collector. I have an auto SOG that stays with me. It's been great for the few years I've had it

    I didn't really bounce it's pretty smooth that way. I did turn too hard at first and it pulled turning all the way into the wall binding everything up so I had to back a tad to straighten out. It's a fun little test on what things feel like at those crazy angles. The last part and first rocky section were really fun to me I enjoyed figuring out climbing the rocks since it was really wet and misty raining when we were on it. Such a fun short trail.

    A hinderer, chris reeves, olamic, WE, and a few others. The 250-600 price range. Kiddo is getting her first 2 pocket knives for her bday and her first gun too. I'm super stoked because she really started showing more interest in that kind of thing this year.

    Yeah I lifted like that having lots of tire stick out saved me more. From what the guys said is my tire was about 2 ft off the ground there. It's a lot deeper rut now I was dragging my belly if that puts it in some perspective and I'm pretty tall and on 35s.

    Out of all the different ones I think their stuff is probably the most badass. The owner of the company is a bit of a nut and not afraid to tear his shiiet up which says something to me compared to the like of ALu-cab.

    It all depends that rut made it harder the way ya'll went typically the normal way is harder. Either way it has it's challenges and that's what's fun about Windrock is most of the trails are completely different animals running them either direction.
