The headstand was nice


Does the downhill count even if he had to have his "handlers" help?

Eh, I brought it on myself.
What the heck did I expect when I beached about it so much.

But I;m not the one who bought it.
So I don;t feel guilty at all for having that crappy lift.

I would just like to be able to travel down the road in a straight line for once.

"An object in motion tends to stay in motion" - thanks Mr Newton

If you're dropping down into a hole and have more somersault-type motion and stop forward progress, the tail end is going to keep moving, i.e. tilt. Something has to keep going.

That's why you saw him gas it when he was almost on the nose. Get the front wheels to pull forward, reversing the somersault motion.

Yeah Randy basically what Jim said...momentum is not your friend. It is more so a problem with SWB vehicles you'll see them gas it as they drop down to pull the front wheels forward.
