Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

[Stburr91]

Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead...Uh...I mean I waterproofed my x-trail scaler.

I finally got my scaler waterproofed, so I thought I'd take it to Frick to test it out. I see no leaks, so all seems well.

Man, is it fun to play in the water, and it sure opens up a lot more places for me to run at Frick Park. I can't wait to see what new spots I can find now.

I had my camera, so I got a few pics.







It was nice crawling on the rocks next to the creek and not having to worry about a roll over into the creek







And just for the heck of it, this is a still from some video of my AX-10 Rockracer

Re: Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

Re: Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

I got back down to Frick this morning, and hit some spots I haven't run on before.

I got my boots a little wet, but it was worth it. Man, did I have a good time.


It was so wet out, the camera got fogged up some.



I had to take the detour around the waterfalls.



I got swallowed up.












Here's a little vid of me trying to run across the ledge in the above pic. Man, is algae slippery. I landed upside down in about a foot of water.

I can make it.

Looks like fun!! We need to get up there and run that spot again since I have a scaler now

That spot looks a lot like Clayton, OK or Windrock, TN where you do drive up seasonal creeks like that

dude that spot is awesome!! nice pics

dude that spot is awesome!! nice pics

Thanks, some of the pics came out pretty well. It was worth slipping and sliding around on the rocks trying to take the pics.

We need to get everyone back down there for a scale run, I could've used a push or a pull up some of the waterfalls.

Re: Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

Sounds good to me but I need some balloons and silicone...sounds like a 976 call

Re: Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

Don't be skeerd....I am not water proof fully and I get it

Just know where everything is...or ask your daughter real nice like if you can borrow her CR-01

That is my thinking...run the Landy for water issues...it is mine...the CC-01 is hers...

need some weight down low so it doesn't float away...

You need more weight to be able to pull Rockbound or Lewis around/over/up stuff too !

Them boys have some down right "big-boned" rigs

I had a hard time pulling rockbound back over the last trip out because I am soo light...which that is just odd anyways with that being one of my trucks
