Rolled KRX on Cliffhanger Trail

We got a call from a couple that had taken the wrong line coming down the Z-turn on cliffhanger trail and rolled their sxs. So we all loaded up in the Scrambler and headed up to get them. Once there we had a couple option for winching it over and finally decided on a simple direct winch pull. Once on its wheels we got it started and backed up to flat ground for them. They loaded all their stuff back onto the machine and we headed out. We had to spotthem a few times. Coming out from the reek crossing near the entrance he tipped up on his back wheel. I pulled his which line out to help with some weight on the line but there was a little confusion on whether I said go or whoa... But once he gave it throttle it went right up. Please make sure you are extra safe and careful when traveling these trails alone, we strongly recommend everyone try to stay in groups just for this situation. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Attention all future customers when Rory says "take this line" take that line

He didn't like to listen very well.

I felt kindly sorry for the wife of the gentleman from Tennessee. Looks like she decided to walk the rest of the way after that rollover. And Shawn's comment at the end about skinny legs struck home for me. I was a lad in shorts and cowboy boots, and Grandpappy told me I looked like a mockingbird standing in 2 shotgun shells......

[@MrStaybrown]

We called my cousin, JAKE, when we were teenagers because his legs were so skinny that his knees were bigger than his legs like a turkey. Young turkeys are Jake's .lol. He's 52 now and still has skinny legs and big knees. 😁

Definitely a long suffering wife. To her and all the wives and girlfriends who put up with men...Skol.

@@MrStaybrown So was my uncle Donald!! and he was such a wonderful uncle. He was in the Korean War all the way through it because he was a, “LIFER.” he joined the military right after America, joined, Great Britain in WWII. The Korean-War June started on, 25, 1950 - July 27, 1953, is when it ended. My beloved uncle was Born & Raised, 1927 - 2014, 86 years old. And, all his life he had the same kind of legs. Donald Giraffe 🦒 -- last name. Big Knees on skinny legs 🦵!!! LOL-😆-LOL!! All 6-FT-6-Inches!! Man. He was tall and skinny. The year before he died, he could still fit in his Captain, Officers Uniform! I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying, ALL LEGS 🦵 & SHORT-BODY 😮 That, was him. I miss him as much as I do my daddy.

Mike, the diplomat, '...let them do what they do best.' Much more customer friendly than...'you called us....' Very professional Rory and crew. Thanks for sharing.

[@General_Confusion]

I think Rory sneaks out at night and puts all these vehicles in these predicaments so he can improve his hero status in rescuing them. Notice how he always finds them easy.

[@89ChevyS101]

Onx offroad helps plus a pin drop from the customer. Rory is also very awesome at what he does

[@dougalexander7204]

I feel sorry for the Mrs. Being turned over is how you learn and part of the fun. Although a little practice in the sand box might have been in order before Cliff Hanger, because, well… you can’t park there.

[@mattc.310]

Looked like mama was done offroading for the day after the rollover. The second one would have definitely finished her off. Nice work getting them out. That poor forklift is overdue for some love.

[@marvincarter870]

Rory's experience on these trails is shown time and again as he leads the customers out and shows them the right line to take. Shawn and Mike did a good job recovering the other Jeep.

[@davebenson1504]

Starts with a pretty standard recovery but becomes a babysitting job getting the customer out safely... just because you can buy/rent one doesn't mean you can drive it 🙂 might be best to take a guided tour next time 🙂 Great seeing another Mike & Shawn Show 🙂 Thanks for sharing 🙂

[@michaelcauser474]

I think it all comes down to the old adage that it does not matter how much you spend on the rig, the most important part of the equation is the quality of the nut behind the steering wheel. That is one major reason why you wont find me on any of those trails. Plus I am not even on your side of the globe. Keep up the good work Gents, you are always my look for channel every time I turn on KZbin.

Great recoveries! I personally don't think I would attempt any of that in those Razers/Side-by-Sides. They look to unstable for me. Awesome seeing the Mike and Shawn show today. Great job guys!

[@KarlEller]

The fully independent suspension means they don't flex like a solid axle vehicle does, and they're not geared nearly low enough (especially after people put big tyres on them), so they really don't make a good rock crawler. They're more suited to dirt roads and uneven ground at speed, not slow and technical.

[@NomadGringo]

Plus, they're weak as heck...

[@johnkruton9708]

I’ve never done any of this in any kind of vehicle. So yeah I’m the armchair watcher and observer. Watching from camera’s and seeing the end after you’ve edited things to bring us the experience is just WOW. I feel for the Kawasaki guy as his rig seems to have a shorter wheelbase and higher center of gravity? So he was timid in the lines as Rory would just power through and use the rocks and tire size to navigate “getting stuck between the rocks”. I’m sure I’d be much worse and just want Shawn or Mike to drive me out. 😂😊

never driven a SXS but I don't think I would ever buy one. They look like they always just want to lay down and that vague clutch at slow speeds would piss me off. Hearing the engine rev up and not see the tires go instantly was driving me crazy just watching in the video. Good Job recuing the goobers day in and day out.

A lot of the skill in off roading is picking the line, which your team is expert at. Some of those trails will put you over in an instance. I guess as the missus was walking out there will be an off-roader for sale soon.😉
