    I like how you can kinda see me teetering (spelling?) on that one turn, but it doesnt look nearly as scary as it was. I was full clench until that front tire found the earth.
    Great video!

    Yea, that would work. They are large enough that if you had them dialed in when you're seated then you could compensate by bobbing your head around on the trails and so they might be perfect!

    Yeh, I tried to include as much of that footage as I could. Your truck was just in the corner of the shot. Then the next frame is my truck off camber on the same descent.

    I'd also throw the little bubble blind spot mirrors on them. I have them on my normal mirrors and they're a must!

    Yeah it sucks that the sun was directly on the camera for that spot, but nothing you can do about that. Still a great video with some great footage!

    OHHH. I didn't even see you because of the reflection on the windshield. I was wondering what that shot was for.

    Yeah. IDK if you heard Jerry say over the radio, "You are REALLY off camber right now."

    I couldn't even respond until halfway down the hill.

    :rofl: You need to keep up! I'm making tube doors for my truck, with an outer sheet metal skin. I'm going to attempt to use camper shell foam to create a seal on the bottom to help keep mud and water out during the inevitable puddles I come across. Latches and mirrors will get here this weekend, and construction will start next wednesday or thursday. All bending will be done with a harbor freight pipe bender

    That's awesome Rob. I like how you had an idea and fucking went for it. A lot of people would be too scared to make a move like that, but you're just gonna send it!!

    Hopefully it turns out as well as I'm imagining it will
