Oh yeah? Wait till you see the video of us in the Mission Ridge parking lot.

A hint you say? How about "Avalanche Ballet".

Check this pic out

I've compensated the image for the fact that Lance was standing on a steep dune and had the camera on an angle.

I will post Lance's pictures tonight. ? ;D
 
Yeah FlynHigh you need to move to Oregon or Washington so you can come on our dune outting I would love to see you lifted AV out on the dunes
 
I get to see pics of my AV off-roading right huh huh (AvaLance jumps up and down excitedly) ;D ;D ;D
 
OK, here are some pics of Lance. Those who have cruised with Lance know that he isn't exactly the wild man that I am off-road so I don't have any sand flying pics - but I do have some good shots of his Av. I've compressed the images to make them modem friendly.

And another one. All of these pics were taken in a gravel pit we found. There were three easy access points into the pit and we figured out a route where we could run laps through the area at increasing speed.

Here is one more. Wish I had taken some shots of Lance going down a steep downhill. He was nervous but I rode with him and talked him through the procedure for going down. If his tires were better I'm willing to bet he would have had enough confidence to go down some of the steeper stuff.

How steep is steep? ?Well it's hard to convey it in pictures. ?As Lance has said you are literally hanging in your seatbelt. ?At one point I undid my seatbelt so I could stand up and wave through the sunroof. ?The angle was so steep it had activated the lock on the seatbelt and I couldn't pull it back out! If you look at the side view mirror you'll notice the only thing you see is sky.

Anyway I'm hoping these pics will help communicate "steep."
