The official flop thread

[AaronB]

Um, sadly I had just spotted a 4Runner through that exact spot sending it basically on the same line and it didn't even lift a tire, it really had nothing to do with the line though. The 4Runner went right through but the Blazer slid just a tiny bit and there was no stopping it. It was a hp issue more than the size.

Were is that trail ? it looks familiar.

That's the John Bull Trail in sbnf.

yea, i took the bypass on that one this last weekend.  didn't want to chance it.

[Ramrod]

i always just stay in the trail and put my passenger tire in that crack not the drivers side

Looks like your rear bumper/bed saved you too.... was it touching the rock like it looks in the pic?   Sweet pics, nice taco

Yeah the rear hoop is really what saved me from going over. I got a couple swirlys on the bed but that's it. If my truck was any shorter, the hoop wouldn't have caught that rock and over I would go.

[kiyul4130]

[boggerunner]

flopped mine today

[llamas]

I would say no. I would think 4 tires would have to be off the ground. That pic almost looks like it could be driven out

I agree !!!  damn good call dirtoy

[skipnrocks]

[1983bamayota]

[acousticrawk]

exo cages anyone? haha. more popular than i thought.

[mickey_rubicon]

both of these were form roundup this year - first one going in - second one coming back out - nobody got hurt and nothing broke, windshiled had a sliderweb that's it

[mickey_rubicon]

same truck same spot but a year apart - some hungarians never learn - it's the stubborn gene

co-pilot: didn't you roll here last year?
driver: yes but this year is different
co-pilot: do oyu mind if I get out this year before you do it?
driver: no go aahead
truck: roll-crunch-flop
co-pilot: I am walking to the dam

[Ramrod]

how do you flop twice on the rubicon on one trip?

[Matty]

cool pic.

whats up with your rear suspension?  looks like theres a panhard bar, but i see leaves...?

[mickey_rubicon]

how do you flop twice on the rubicon on one trip?

first one was pilot error and the second one was making the same mistake as last year makes two rolls and, packing unpacking the rig six times if you count the camping part. I know exactly what to bring and not to bring now and what to bring it in my co-pilot did some hiking - he is not trusting of people

[Thomas P]

it didnt have anything to do with the empty %^@&$ bottle on the ground?

[mickey_rubicon]

i didnt have anything to do with the empty %^@&$ bottle on the ground?

if you  look very carefully those are all diet soda cans - so the answer is no diet pepsi and diet 7up, the bottle was finished at camp - cosidering the enforcement and liability factor on the trail - it is a risk I do not take while driving the Rubicon. Its a whole other story at camp by the fire with key turned to accessory mode only.
