Re: AzRocks 2008

Wow....all the way over backwards!! You okay? Any major damage to the buggy? I just dinged a tube in a little spot. Looks from the pics like you just rolled it back over and then made it unassisted up the fall you just rolled off of. Is that right? If so, way to get back on the ****in' horse!

Looks like you guys had a good time on Bad Medicine too. Anyone make the last fall?

A friend of mine ran up it AND THEN turned back around and came down it (BIG mistake)....took two hours to get him unstuck from the very bottom of the fall, but we managed to do it without him breaking anything. I was amazed.

If I can ever figure out how this stupid camera works with the software, I'll load the videos we have from Highway to Hell and Bad Medicine.

Anyone know why if my wife is shooting with our video camera in "wide screen" mode, it won't burn to a DVD or go on YouTube without compressing the picture so that everything is tall and skinny? Totally distorts the videos.

Thanks for any help.

Sean

Re: AzRocks 2008

I was strapped in tight and was fine. It was actually way softer than coming down hard on the slider or something I was suprised! The buggy was totally fine, dented the hood a little in one spot which I pounded out today and you could hardly tell. Flipped the buggy over and it started right up, I turned around and drove up unassisted pretty easy. The first time I was too far to the right and though I would slide lift if it got too high but it just kept climbing.

No one finished the last fall on bad medicine but I didn't get to try because everyone wanted to get back to camp before dark. Mike (howyadoin) killed his tierod on the fall or he would have made it, it was already bent though. I'm dying to go back and hit that fall again already, I don't really see any reason why I wouldn't make it.

Mike: It was awesome!

Homedad: you still got shotgun? Gonna be at gillette this weekend? Thinking about camping up there.

Re: AzRocks 2008

With your width, I think you'll make the last fall pretty easily. Wider is NOT better on that one.
