Advanced Training Lessons 1&2

With winter just within reach, our final advanced training session of the year kicked off, gearing up these off-road aficionados for the epic adventures this coming season promises.

We started our first lesson in the sweltering heat of the mid-afternoon, pushing through until sunset. After a brief recharge at home, we were back at it just a few hours later for lesson two—right at the crack of dawn. That’s right, two lessons back-to-back, keeping the pressure on to mold this team into diamond-tier drivers.

We began where it all started, with a refresher on the basics. But within just an hour, the course exploded into advanced techniques and maneuvers. By the end of lesson two, this band of extreme off-road brothers was conquering unbelievable crests. Today was a true testament to their perseverance over the past few months, and they delivered more than anyone expected.

I can’t wait to see what they bring to the table in the next few lessons as they prepare to graduate as full-fledged off-roaders. A huge thank you to Malcs and Ryan for the exceptional support as always.

  • This midsummer morning, just before dawn, promised an epic and thrilling drive!

The day began slowly, with some folks struggling to find the meeting point due to navigation app glitches. To add to the adventure, we had to help some stranded strangers winch their truck out of a sticky situation near our deflation point.

Once we finally got moving, the intensity of our warm-up set the stage for the rest of the drive, pushing our juniors to use their accelerators more than ever before.

The first 30 minutes went smoothly until we encountered our first tire pop-out of the day. Big trucks and KO2s are a perfect recipe for debeading tires in soft sand.

After a quick fix, we were back on the move, tackling bigger slopes and bowls. It wasn’t long before another KO2 tire needed attention, but this time, we managed a speedy repair and got back on schedule in no time.

As we entered the final hour of our drive, we hit the morning’s highlight: massive bowls and dune climbs, followed by a quick rest atop the dunes.

With the day’s challenges nearly behind us, the convoy headed toward the exit, seizing the opportunity to increase our speed and enjoy the untouched slopes, making the sand fly!

Fulfilling our day’s objectives and reaching our planned exit 15 minutes ahead of schedule, it was a perfectly executed drive. It was fantastic to see our new juniors progressing nicely and conquering the Nahil area like pros. Catch you all on the slopes soon!
