My First Advance Lead

Post by shiroy »

Saturday - 17.12.2022 PM

Convoy:
Shiroy - Lead - FJ
Razeem - Second Lead - Fortuner
Mohd Ameen - FJ
Khaled - Tundra
Artur - Sweeper - FJ

Amr - Fido Dido - Supporting Marshal - Out of Convoy

We met at the Sweihan BBQ deflation point on time. Safety briefing was carried out, convoy order was set and then we commenced our drive. Since the starting point had nice small dunes we crested as much as possible on multiple dunes. There were regular breaks and we had time to reflect and discuss the each of our driving skills. We then headed past the gatch tracks and played on some medium size dunes. There were some second and third and forth attempts on some dunes but we enjoyed our time in the sand.

There were a few stucks and recoveries and this was a great learning experience for all of as as our Marshal Amr explained in depth to all of us as to how to recover yourself and be recovered by others. As the sun started to set, Marshal Amr led us towards the BBQ point to crest on some larger size dunes. These dunes were completely murdered which tracks and bumps, but we had fun climbing these dunes. We then headed back to the BBQ point and caught up with the other members from other drives. We then exited from Gate 12.

All in all all drivers drove well. There were no mechanical issues.

Thank you Khaled for bringing coffee and Karak tea for all of us. :cheeeeers:

Thank you Amr for guiding us and explaining clearly how recoveries should be done as well as being our supporting Marshal.

Thank you Artur for the great Sweeping and getting stuck in sticky positions :lol:

Thank you Razeen for the great Second Lead. 8-)

Thank you to all others that joined. As this was my first full drive lead, hope you'll had as much fun as me. Looking forward to my next lead drive. Until then Adios. :D
