"Rock Bounce", I think thats what they call it. Pretty much just pedal to the floor and hold on. All on private land.

That's why a lot of guys from the east coast trip out when they get to Moab, it's so different. They're not used to constant traction. It's really slippery over there. I know I would suck at wheeling the east coast.

Yep, You can def be glued to the monitor for days watching vids from youtube member Madram11

and actually there was a big group of rock bouncers in Moab for Turkey day last year... Im pretty sure a few RME members were the trail guides and co-wheelers with them, bet they got some good stories!

Now we know why people say "a d44 can never hold up to 35's" one one side of the country, where on another side guys say "I have 37's on my d44 and I've never broken anything." Totally different terrain, driving style, etc.

I drive like a grandpa, and I don't bounce or hop, which is why my ifs has held up so long with big tires. If I drove like that, I'd have rockwells for sure.

Wow, that driver front tire broke off like it was a toothpick!

Those are some SICK looking rigs.

On a side note: I thought our sport of crawling was "bad for the environment" SUWA has to be wetting them selves with that vid!

Those boys are fearless trust me the videos dont do them justice. You need to see it in person to believe it.

This, I took my truck that did splendidly in Moab out there and was promptly denied on some of the same runs he does in that video. It's different, and a lot harder than it looks.
