[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Dang man!!!! Thank you for helpin out! It just makes sense if you love a place you spend time, might as well make it better.

[@ChristhompsonDG]

I knew when I saw Virgil was entering he would slay. And damn boi he won his class that’s dirty cool

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Virgil blows me away with his driving skills. We had a lot of fun.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

I better stick to spotting. lol.

Bronson runs around in these rocks like a mountain goat! 🐐

Awesome job!

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thanks brotha!!!

[@TaltonOffroadTravel]

These are fun, I was a spotter for my buddy in one of these last year and it was harder than I thought it would be. Dodging cones is a whole different ball game when you’re used to just trail riding lol

[@TaltonOffroadTravel]

BTW he did a great!

[@abecroney]

It was awesome meeting you guys! Hope to see you at another event soon. #23

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Dude we need to get a wrecked rides on your rig. Also do you any trail wheeling?

[@Burke_Motorsports]

Heck yeah! Winner Winner in this part 1 video. On to winning part 2! The weather a couple days ago put a damper on our rock crawling shenanigans. The river was too high.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Man last time we were out there my but got wet crossing it.

[@Burke_Motorsports]

@@WRECKEDGEARGained valuable seat time today. Bombed south down Black Cayon OHV trail with 15 rigs. Hit Lower Terminator. It a was Jeep Jamboree USA event I attended yesterday and today. Wet trail made life interesting. The v-notch looked cool with water flowing thought it.

[@MadCowRacing13]

Good to see you at Bagdad, hopefully we’ll see you at Cedar, or S.H. At some point. That was a crazy roll at the beginning of the video… hope that guy is ok 😜

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Yeah that guy is wild!!!!! We are for sure planning for Farmington. One of these days we need to hook up and trail wheel.

[@joecarmean1079]

Great job editing Bronson. I’ve seen 100’s of WERock videos. With the music, cuts, and your commentary. It’s the best footage I’ve seen. 👍. I wonder how part 2 is going to turn out? 🤔. Another great episode. 🍻

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Man I wish we could have done even better. but it was a huge challenge competing, filming and I under estimated how busy we were even though we do 4 courses. But hey we got some decent stuff cuz jess hustled and we had a blast.

[@chrislyons8346]

I can't wait for my Friday videos! great footage as always. come see us one of these days in southwest Missouri!

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

One day we are going to get at a point to where we can travel a little more and we will for sure get out your way!.

[@jamespalmer1462]

Great job, love the video

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thanks James!

[@jeepgreatstories]

That was sick! Even saw a glimpse of my buddy Dwayne in the DVORA buggy.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Wish we could have had more coverage of the entire event. it was a ton of work just getting our runs. Dwayne killed it out there.

[@jeepgreatstories]

@@WRECKEDGEAR 👍🏼 hoping to be a judge next year when we are back in the west.

[@jades.4160]

Nice job guys

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thank you!!! Virgil never lets down. He is one driving mother Effer.

[@Mickale-Moranis]

Nice comps. On backups, you make the most for the move. What I've done in competing is to use rocks as pivot points for front digs, rear digs, gravity side slips, etc. As a spotter, you are allowed to use rocks to help with climbs and control. As a spotter, yah, cones are deadly. You place a rock and while driving through the cones, it gets dislodged and touches cone, its a touch. Thus have them on the downhill side for the effect.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thanks for the pro tips!!! I feel I learned some stuff out there. but I still feel like i barley know what I'm doing.

[@alittleoffroad8246]

Great video! You guys killed it

[@wreckedgearjess]

Thank you! 💙 I'm glad you liked it. We weren't sure how to put the content out as it's not our comfort zone. I think Bronson did great portraying what it's like out there!

[@alittleoffroad8246]

Yes he did, the explanation of the rules and corse flow were right on point can’t wait till day 2 😎

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thank you.

[@xTinBenderX]

LFG!!!

[@scottyh72]

Great job guys! It was good to see you guys out there.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thank you!!! We had a blast.

[@jonathaneugene]

Sweet rear dig!

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

This is why Virgil keeps up with the Rear steer rigs. He has all the crazy tricks to move his rear axle.

[@joeyf82]

Hope you do the whole series. If you do, will gladly share some local IPAs with you when you hit WA.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Unfortunately I don't think we will be able to fit that in the budget this year. We are for sure going to hit Farmington, but any other ones are super questionable. So down to meet up with ya when we do get out that way.

[@freeidaho-videos]

Nice rig. Great control. Man, there is a lot of air in those tires. Subscribed.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thanks for the Sub!!!! I think he runs his tires @ 7lbs. His rig is super light. They do look like they were a little high.

[@Evolution8R]

thats cool

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Way different then what we normally do but man it was fun.

[@jamielapierre931]

So awesome to watch first hand . We were there Sunday and saw you guys but you were spotting and videoing. My stomach got the best of me and stood inline for like 45 min to get a 🌭. Then we watched the big boys get crazy. Virgil and you were killing it. We are going to try and make it to Farmington.

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Awesome! we are for sure making it to Farmington. I think we have it figured out to where we will be more available for Farmington. Look forward to seeing you there.

[@ricks72ntx]

Just remember hitting a cone is +10 and backups are only +1, so take the backup if needed cause 9 backups is still better then hitting a cone

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

I for sure learned by the end of this comp.

[@brendancavanaugh6118]

Well done boys! This video shows that competing in Werock can be fun for anyone. Cool seeing you guys figure out the strategy over the 4 courses. Put a window net on that rig and come play with us in Pro Modified!

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

I'm pretty hardcore about my trail wheeling and thought that I would never have any interest in comp. Buddy Virgil talked needed a spotter to wheel and it only made sense because We wheel so often together and know our wheeling sty that I should jump in. Turns out comping is pretty fun man. way different but it is cool having to compare points and making moves due to needing point game and all the strategy. Also I feel like it makes you a better wheeler having to not back up or stay between cones. I would for sure like to do it again or even get my car out on the pro corse.

[@brendancavanaugh6118]

@@WRECKEDGEAR Your blue rig would do great in the Pro trail class. You definitely have a handle on how read the terrain and be able to explain it clearly to the viewers. For me, competing pressure makes it exciting in the moment and "turns the volume" down on scary/stressful situations trail wheeling.

[@AmmoDawgOffRoad]

Another kick a$$ Friday night video 🤘 Awesome job at WErock and congrats on the podium finish

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Thanks Ammo Dawg!!!! I'm going to have to put you up on the sponsor board if you keep donating all that cash!!!

Let's start the video with clickbait you didn't pick up a cone and yell into it 🤣 was this Kolbee's first event right on so awesome right on let's go Kolbee Shel definitely be driving one day I think before jess cuz she makes a pretty good camera woman thanks Jess always keeping our planet clean Virgil you freaking killed it you slayed that course 😳 Bronson great spoting just said show me something cool then you show us something sleazy and after you guys got the trophy on the event then you showed us a cool move 🤩 you energized the judge after you guys nailed a bonus line and he said hell yeah brother🤣🤣🔥😍💪 you guys earned your night have some fun but make sure we see you in the next video true subscribers will know what happened one time b4 ♥️🏅 so entertaining I don't know where 20 minutes went because the video only 5 minutes thanks wrecked gear fam and Virgil 💪🏅♥️🙏💯 there's no mind blown on this one cuz I knew you guys got this they weren't competitors to you guys they were just spectators

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

Kolbee has been missing some of the events due to us not having a dedicated seat for her and the events we have been going to are long hard days that we don't want to leaver her in the camper alone. She is now getting older and we have Killik who is pretty much the best body guard we could ask for. so she will be coming to more and more big events.

[@TJussilainen]

Here in Scandinavia / Europe spotter sit in the vehicle or if buggy is single seater there is no spotter. no external help allowed

[@WRECKEDGEAR]

That's awesome!!! I think that should be a rule here also. It makes sense. if you don't have a second seat then you can have a passenger. If you cant carry a passenger then you shouldn't be able to have a passenger as a tool.

[@James957171]

Amazing video!!! Congratulations on the first round of competition. I wish this video was available last year. I entered my first amateur rock crawling competition at Sand Hollow last year with Jason from w3 as my spotter. The competition didn't go so smoothly at the beginning but by the end we were having a blast. I wish we could have seen this video ahead of time so then maybe we wouldn't not have look like total newbies lol. You guys make me want to try another competition. Well keep up the amazing videos and I am looking forward to the next one.

[@virgilray7708]

Definitely come out and try again. Good to have more people out participating. You get better by doing it and keep it fun. Can’t lose that way.
