Side Cresting Nahel / Adv / 29.10.2022

Post by Redbeard »

Big thanks to Marshal Mark for sponsoring this trip.
Also big thank you to Marshal Kevin and Experts Maher and Chrismon for providing valuable support.

We ended up meeting ~1km down the gatch from the official meeting point, to avoid driving on the sharp rocks with deflated tires.
Some of our advanced drivers were fairly new to the level, so trip started out very easy, side cresting small dunes and from flat tops.
Everyone was doing well, so we found some bigger dunes to practice on. We also hit some of the very long and winding crests that Nahel offers, practicing staying on the crests as long as possible, or getting off and back on when necessary.
We found several nice areas where we just played around until the crests were completely gone :D.

On the way back to gatch we had one stuck on top of one of these long crests where it is easy to lose momentum. An attempt was made to do self-recovery with traction boards, but this did not seem an efficient approach for that type of situation. James volunteered to do the recovery, and performed it perfectly.

All the drivers did very well, always being safe, knowing the limits of their cars and turning down when necessary.

Finally - thank you drivers for your patience, as this was my first proper advance trip lead I am still in learning phase.
