Junior 4 (AI 13)

Share with your friends!

At a comfortable 25 degrees Celsius, we made all preparations before the drive, as usual.

Soon after, we hit the first dune where we had 4 (four) recoveries. This was resolved and sweeper Luca gave us a sign: s..s.ssstuck is …. c.c.ccclear

After about 500 meters, we had a new double stuck that served as an example to show us what happens if we do not follow the track and instructions. After winching, the lesson was learned and we continued thankfully without any serious damage.

Arriving at the first exercise point, we explained the tactics and exercise performance. The adrenaline was here and sand tracks were constantly running from us left and right. After several repetitions, we caught a thread and decided to move from that place before we razed that dune to the ground.

Now, the ride had finally begun, which was soon interrupted by someone from the convoy requesting a technical break.

We started by practicing “hook position” and had a few more stuck situations along with a double stuck. Last thing on this dune was to take the elephant over the hill. But it didn’t work, the little red had to pull the big one. And there was a problem because the little red said: “screw you guys, I’m going home”. After 13+ recovers in an hour and a half of driving, Red Devil deserved only applause.

All we had left was to pull the little red out of the desert and leave the scenery in the rearview mirrors and promise to go back to get the job done.

We learned a lot !!!

Who knows what they would be able to fix by the end of the trip. We detected personal mistakes and warned drivers to pay attention to them.

Big thanks to supporting team SL Sven and specially to senior Luca for awesome job today.

We’ll be back!

Until that, keep rocking.

    Not a very successful drive overall, but a few lessons learned and good to get back on the big bowl again and practice some of the most challenging side cresting so far. Fingers crossed that level four take two goes better and together, as a team, we recover our flow!

    Thanks to the DF team for all the support!

    It was different level of a drive unlike the previous drives more speed, challenges and more technical ideas explained by marko.

    Lots of recoveries which is part of the game big thx to our trip hero luca, Good efforts with team started with first dune.

    Overall it feels that we are moving towards the real action hopefully next week we can complete what we have missed from level 4.
