"Glad I have sliders" picture thread
Being as I do not have sliders, occasionally I am in a situation where I just have to be reeeealy careful...
Like this morning for example, coming down an extremely steep boulder-strewn path:
So it got me thinking: for all the people who do have sliders, I bet alot of you have pictures where they've really saved your butt (and doors).
Let's see 'em!

Re: "Glad I have sliders" picture thread
I have a video clip of me using my sliders to pivot on a large rock. Just try to ignore the spectators... Enjoy...

I don't have any pics of actual sliding but I use them just about every time I'm wheeling. In fact there is one maneuver that I can't do unless I use the sliders to bump me around a stump. I'm extremely happy with my AllPro sliders

There are so many photos of slider saves ...here are a few recent snaps (taken by MRSDUSTPARK) from Holcomb Creek.
