I'd just like to see it in person. I can stay off to the side incase you need a winching anchor point. LolOh man, I’m excited to someday do this trail
Don't forget the rear steer too!See. I was happy I live on the East Coast. I have zero need for a full on caged rig. I don't want to go that far down the rabbit hole. But now........
That was given.Don't forget the rear steer too!

I don't have anything that qualifies to run it then And Debbie was threatening to run it in the JKU if we go in August...So it looks like there are some rules........ cage, 4 point harness and winch, lockers and 37inch rolling stock.... al of this will be inspected before access is granted........ and helmets....... guess I will just run the rubicon then....
I am good with having some safety gear and upgraded roll cage but helmets? before too long they will require all of that for the whole park.I don't have anything that qualifies to run it then And Debbie was threatening to run it in the JKU if we go in August...
You know it's lit when the spotters have to helmet up, tooI am good with having some safety gear and upgraded roll cage but helmets? before too long they will require all of that for the whole park.

Exactly. Walking backwards and focused on the rig can lead to slips and falls.I watch spotters everytime we're out walking backwards in the rocks.... Thankfully no one has fallen and cracked their head. But then again we post pictures and videos of people hanging off rig to keep them from tipping too.
Ok, I'm gonna back pedal, I have seen spotters doing what you're saying, and the potential for falling in a BIG hole on Mammoth is pretty high... So the requirement for spotters does make sense there..I watch spotters everytime we're out walking backwards in the rocks.... Thankfully no one has fallen and cracked their head.

Let's see... Build a massive rock and boulder trail to challenge the wheeling community... I can see the requirement for a cage to help keep you from getting crushed. It also adds stiffness to the rig. I can see a quick tech inspection. And seat belts are required to keep you in the seat.Ok, I'm gonna back pedal, I have seen spotters doing what you're saying, and the potential for falling in a BIG hole on Mammoth is pretty high...

You can still play on the other trails at AOAA. I see no problem with them wanting you to wear a helmet and have a cage for this one trail.Let's see...

After that I'm done. Everyone wearing a helmet....why not just wrap everyone in bubble wrap. Trails in Moab are certainly as if not more difficult than this and they last I knew there was no requirement to enforce helmet laws.
Pa, you can ride a motorcycle without a helmet but you are required to wear one on a bicycle....
I can run AOAA in my Jeep without the need of a cage or 4 point or helmet but for this trail you have to pass tech inspection to include helmets....
I can run at Rausch on any trail without any required but save for a second rig...
Thanks I'll look for other places to play
Do you think that waiver will really keep people from suing anyway? Nope.I thought that was what that paper you signed to be able to use the park was for. Something about you are responsible for your own safety and injuries and any damage or breakage to your vehicle and they are not responsible for anything or something like that.
