Loading a Bobcat - WITHOUT RAMPS

[@stevesass863]

I love watching people who know what the **ck they are doing. Talent/skill.

[@SouthwestORV]

I agree, he does seem to know what the heck he is doing.

[@icac6122]

That skill and talent comes with a 60 thousand price tag lmao

[@yusriyahbagheri8843]

What the hell do ducks have to do with this?

[@onkcuf]

Sometimes (lots) wing it.

[@onkcuf]

I've been around. I can hack it.

[@kountryquads9475]

Now this is the proper time for me to say he’s gots skills to pay the bills! Those machines look like a blast!

[@SouthwestORV]

LOL, literally yes. This is how he makes his living. And he enjoys it.

[@gcprost]

Those are some serious skills. I’ve worked a BobCat but I couldn’t conceive of doing this.

[@SouthwestORV]

I’m the same

[@jesusortiz8666]

that was pretty dam smooth and quick , nice job .

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes, he makes it look almost graceful.

[@richardbullwood5941]

Now THAT is an operator.

[@SouthwestORV]

Yessir!

[@user-cl4kr4dj4l]

Now that's not just skill but real talent and experience.. He must feel the machine as an extension of his arms.

[@SouthwestORV]

Yessir, he's an owner operator and this is all he does, skid-steer work.

[@icac6122]

Forget the arms. That's an extension of his peepee

[@AsbestosMuffins]

these things are as close to mechs as we got

[@SouthwestORV]

Mechs? I don't follow.

[@Eljewel01]

Hello, Mr George? You know the new guy you just hired, give him a raise. He's worth every cent.

[@SouthwestORV]

Exactly.

[@UserName_no1]

That was badass. The way he balanced he balanced it on the front wheels then backed it up to the bed of the truck shows some sick skills. 🤯

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes it does

[@patrickgroenewegen]

If nothing else it’s a testament to Kubota’s oil sump pickup technology.

[@SouthwestORV]

That it is

[@brianbassett4379]

I bet the rate of Bobcat accidents jumps significantly after this video.

[@SouthwestORV]

Possible, although most won’t have the nerve to try.

[@318cadp5]

That is some serious knowledge of how that machine reacts to your input love seeing it

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes, crazy amounts of experience.

[@weejohnbb]

I truly don't understand how these guys can balance a machine like that, the weight of the machine shifts along with the operator's body shifting while holding levers and pedals, incredible.

[@SouthwestORV]

One thing that plays a key role is mechanical controls. He said it can't be done with electrical controls.

[@weejohnbb]

@@SouthwestORV ah, analog inputs, like an extension of your hand. Incredible.

[@jaysontadlock1871]

I’ve never seen anyone do it with modern stick controls, the old UI with the two sticks and floor pedals for the hydraulics are the only machines that can do this without having a bucket completely loaded with dirt. Hell all the new shit has electronics that turn the engine off at certain angles.

[@devdoesitbest6974]

This man needs a raise

[@SouthwestORV]

He'll have to give it to himself. He is an owner operator. Thanks for watching!

[@stephanietate1719]

Most skilled with a bobcat I definitely seen

[@SouthwestORV]

I would venture, that most have seen.

[@MightyMatt28]

Mind blown! This guy is a Boss! Equivalent of driving a 8,000lb unicycle whilst juggling. Many simultaneous actions seamlessly and smoothly. Bravo!

[@SouthwestORV]

I agree.

[@jennyjansen754]

It's great when a video is about what the title says it is about.

[@SouthwestORV]

Right?

[@michaelwinkelman7165]

My brother has a landscaping business I run his bobcat once in awhile but I can't do any of that this guy is good.

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes, he's amazing.

[@bryans5339]

You can tell this guy could push a dime across a concrete bridge with that bucket ... he’s that good!

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes, he could. He gets paid to entertain in his skid steer.

[@bird271828]

This guy deserves the gold medal.👏👏👏👏👏

[@SouthwestORV]

I agree. He's second to none.

[@danw6014]

I learned to get pretty smooth running at the time a Gehl skidloader cleaning out a cement lagoon on a dairy farm. To start cleaning we started on the ramp down to the bottom which was just wide enough for the spreader that was over 6 feet high and the skidloader. The first few loads were pretty much shitty water that we scooped into the spreader. If you were jerky with either stick you were wearing it. With that I will say my hat is off to the operator of that machine and I'd like to buy him a beer.

[@SouthwestORV]

I'm sure he'd accept it! His name is Jake Hatch with Black Sheep Skid, he has performed at monster truck shows in his skid steer.

[@stevegardner221]

Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it, well done.

[@SouthwestORV]

He's a magician on this machine.

[@hossemadian7127]

That's a good load for a pick up truck. Well done

[@SouthwestORV]

On a regular work day he may do this 1-4 times.

[@darrin2053]

Not only impressive loading stellar payload as well

[@SouthwestORV]

Agreed, impressive truck

[@The22j]

That was so sick!!!

[@SouthwestORV]

I agree!

[@pierrelarocque3214]

Wow!! What an operator. Bravo !!

[@SouthwestORV]

Thanks!

[@09rja]

Wow. Wish I had those skills.

[@SouthwestORV]

It’s a very marketable skill.

[@Fester_]

I feel sorry for others, us people trying that for the 1st time but forgetting out back lights, tail lights cross bars, braces - basically messing it all up and smashing stuff because we didn't think it through. Nice going load master.

[@SouthwestORV]

Yessir, he's pretty awesome.

[@juliannoble6]

Man made this look so much easier than it actually is😂

[@SouthwestORV]

So true.

[@SteveDoesEverything]

That's nuts. I'm just learning how to use some Grapples. Lol

[@SouthwestORV]

Yep, crazy how I get in one and it's all jerky and I look like a fool. He dances with it.

[@logangassman2341]

I’ve seen this done with an excavator on Mythbusters: it’s possible, but VERY hard to do.

[@SouthwestORV]

Unless you do it 3 times per day, then it’s run of the mill.

[@simonchant761]

Why aren't 4 in 1 buckets popular in USA? It's all we use in Australia.

[@SouthwestORV]

I don't know!

[@angelabryant9079]

As impressive as that was, what about the ole ford not even squatting the thickness of a sheet of paper when there's a skid steer on the bed!

[@SouthwestORV]

Agreed. Shout out to the Ford F450. Or maybe it was a 550. Don't recall.

[@williamgraham6154]

Man dam I couldn't believe my dam eyes that guy is bad to the bone he's good best I ever heard of he got dam lart of nerve

[@SouthwestORV]

Yes, I agree, a lot of skill and nerve.

[@thedolphin5428]

Very clever. But ramps work well too!

[@SouthwestORV]

In his case, this is his normal mode of work. This is the only way he loads and unloads, and it's fastest for him.

[@ALEXCHAVEZ-ix4yo]

That skills right there 👏👏👏

[@SouthwestORV]

Amen. He does have incredible skills for sure.

[@yep2636]

I knew a guy that did that with forks on. Fork broke. Came back in the cab and went threw his chest. Always use the bucket.

[@SouthwestORV]

Sad. I believe it.

[@kingboagart899]

Hard to get laid with a fork through the chest. Ima hold off on that trick.

😂 i have one i gotta try this freaking flawless he definitely spent a few hours on a bobcat

[@SouthwestORV]

Right? That's all he does for work, all day long.

[@ThunderingDiesel]

Now where’s the unloading video at?

[@SouthwestORV]

I’ll see if I can get you one.

[@meggadodge05]

We got a bobcat , but always wondered what happens to the oil pressure when you do this ? Engine oil pressure I meant to say

[@SouthwestORV]

Whatever happens, it can't be too detrimental. This guy constantly runs his skiddies like this.

[@chargermopar]

It's easy to get it up there but getting off the truck is something I never could master with the old flatbed. the bucket digs in and the bobcat ended up tipping back and hitting the truck.

[@SouthwestORV]

I should publish the getting of video.

Good work

[@michaelriley8002]

I just have to say. There are ALOT of Dudley Doo Rites on this thread lol. "What about the oil" lol good god man. Either it's his equipment that's why hes so good with it, or he just dont give a flying F about the oil because he's doing stuff with it that shouldn't be physically possible lol. But all some of these folks are worried about is the oil lol. Really that's what gets you off huh, gotta comment about how bad this potentially is because of the lack of oil for a few seconds while it's on end, get over it. This is impressive oil or no oil. Plus the Ol Ford didn't budge an inch, just pointing that out.

[@SouthwestORV]

Yessir. The oil issue isn’t a problem for him.

Very cool. I work for Bobcat so see a lot of talented skid/track drivers but this is good. Is there a video of him getting the machine off?

Not yet, but he does get it off several times a day without ramps...at least he did with that truck. Yes, he is very good.

Wheres the engine oil pickup?

I have no idea.

Time has proven otherwise. This guy is an owner/operator and has been for nearly a decade. All he does, all day long, is run his skid steer. And, he spends a great deal of time on two wheels. Time has proven that these machines can be on two wheels without an issue, for years on end.

[@DatBoiOrly]

Since it's such a small amount of time the engine is sideways it may burn a bit of oil but it'll not harm the machine in the slightest just need a top up now and then. I've had diesels in the past that have ran away because of bad seals in the turbo and it sucked all the oil out of the oilpan it didn't cause any harm to the engine since it was such a short time it ran away just needed a top up and a new turbo and it was back running. ;)
