A small group of us went up to ride for 2 days. Had a great time. I rolled mine on the waterfall. I wanted to try a different line... it felt real stable until the very last second, I kept waiting on the drivers front tire to settle back down... oh well. Here are some pictures and video.

Hell yeah nice vids... Yall walked up waterfall for the most part! How ya think the turnout for aug8th is gonna be???
 
dang that roll on waterfall looked gnarly. good filming its about time someone used a tripod. I looks like yall had lots of fun
 
Looks like a good time. I passed RK and the yellow jeep in Wilkes, and Pinkston (new wheels look sweet btw) towards Kernersville that Friday. I went to Gso that weekend to do some mtn biking.
 
How bad did the guy that rolled burn his hand, when he grabbed the muffler?
 
Thoughts on a cool roll:

I really like the part where Matt sticks his hand down to see if the muffler is hot :rolleyes:

Props for trying to wheel on your side also :lol:

You know how you always see bystanders rushing in to help? None of that with this crew, dedicated video reporting I guess :)
 
Didnt burn my hand at all. I was trying to grab the floor to hold myself up, just reached a little far. It had been sitting for a while before that so it wasnt hot.

When I put it in gear on its side I was trying to stall it out. My keys fell out somewhere between standing straight up and on its side so thats the only way I could cut it off. We spent a while looking for my keys in the water after that.
 
Here's Jody (jodyfj40) finding Matt's keys at the bottom of the waterfall.

It was a slow, easy roll. And it was very clear that he was ok afterwards. We did make it down to help, but we took our time so we wouldn't fall into the water.
 
You can see the keys when they fall out on the vid. It is right on the 33 sec mark of the video. When Matt's truck hits the bank standing straight up, watch the fuel cell. You will see the keys hit it and drop into the drink. We tried to spot that on the camera to see where to look for the keys. But, we couldn't see it. Jody went swimming...
 
Here are some more pics from last weekend.
