The LEAST Photographed Rig at CM07

[Bobzooki]

The rig that will NEVER be in Toyota Trails.

Somehow, Kurt Gensheimer caught it on Moab Rim.

Question: What do you do, when your trail leader flops, and goes over the cliff? Fortunately, we didn't have to answer that one!

Id say the zook needs a nice tube bumper with a little stinger, nice one, my least favorite spot in Moab

 

[Bobzooki]

Oh, that bumper is all 3/16 steel. A stinger would have snagged - I stood it straight up and down, right on the edge of a flop...then drove out of it, without touching rock with the front bumper.

Bobzooki had to change his overalls after that one! It's cool though, Bob. If you're little zooki flopped, we had six guys standing below who could have stopped it before it rolled off the cliff. Now if it was an 80 series, forget it!!!

I doubt a 80 series could do that on that little spot, thats a different debate, the newt has its own unique issues, very nice Bob

Yeah, you "doubt" it, but you wouldn't really know firsthand, now would you?

Well, after I came down that, without a spotter (that's the worst line I have EVER taken down the Devil's Crack), I spotted a few 40's, a few 4Runners, an 80 and an FJ Cruiser down that spot without a problem. The secret is staying about a foot and a half to the driver's side of my line.

 

[Bobzooki]

Looking at that, it looks like I'm not aired down at all! Actually, I was running 12 PSI. I think the vehicle's weight must be on the slider in this pic, because the rear tire looks like it's barely touching the ground, and the opposite rear tire is probably 3 feet in the air.

 

[calstyl2]

12lbs???, man I was at 6-8 on my 40 and 8-10 on my 80, as light as you are -10 would of been fine, but that little truck does damn well anyways

Now you shouldn't feel totally overlooked, I got a few pics:

That looks too familiar! When I was out there the 3rd week of April I did pretty much the same thing. I hit that spot wrong and was fortunately able to back out and try a new line before any harm was done. I was also leading my group on the trail.

Wow! Thanks, man! The last thing my wife heard, as we cleared the first obstacle on Kane Creek was "Yeah, but he can't SLEEP in it!"

Hey, that might have been me . I say that all the time about anything you can't sleep in as being able to sleep in my rig (as well as go just about anywhere I please) is a pretty high priority for me .

 

[Bobzooki]

Just for the record, I HAVE slept in it!

That happened to me on that trail further up by the giant ledge. Was coming down on the left side if you are going up. Next thing I knew my cruiser wanted to go turtle. Only thing that saved me was my slider.
