Learned some techniques to use when I get into my truck in 2 weeks! Been doing it with my trainer so of course it’s quicker lol. Keep up the good work bud! Congrats on that 4% increase on your snapshot a few videos back. Watching your videos, Airborne, Axel etc to absorb as much knowledge as possible!

[@patrickslaughter9517]

Good morning White collar trucker

[@whitecollartrucker]

Hahaha. You are the man!! :-)

[@patrickslaughter9517]

Great video. You Da man

[@roywebb8767]

Why fold in half lengthwise

[@whitecollartrucker]

That the way TMC teaches.

[@jeffreycairns767]

As a new driver to flatbed, plus I have a bad back & knees, im over weight, not very active (extremely lazy), AND a chain smoker, im not looking forward to having to fold these. 80,000 lb lumber loads requiring 2 lumber tarps per load, 2-3 times a week for the foreseeable future, this is going to kill me

[@whitecollartrucker]

Yikes! Tough times ahead! Hang in there big buddy! Take your time and please don’t die!

[@jeffreycairns767]

@whitecollartrucker I appreciate the kind words and I'll do my best, lol. I'm from Ontario, Canada and will be running quad axle trailers of lumber to Northern parts of Ontario & Quebec. Tarping, from what I've been told, is mostly in the winter months due to the salt and grime on the roads. I've pulled heavy loads many times in my 20+ years of driving as well as driven North. I just haven't run heavy flatbed loads up there, especially in the winter. They can get a couple of feet of snow in any given day, so the roads are gonna SUCK!!! There's also wild life year round and the highway is mostly 2 lanes (1 in each direction) and have very little civilization between small towns. Not to mention the hills. It'll definitely be interesting. If tarping doesn't kill me, the roads and wild life might. I'll just do my best

[@whitecollartrucker]

Geez! You are going to have your work cut out for you! Hopefully Mother Nature can keep the pesky animals out of your headlights and you live happily ever after! :-)
