Report Dubai pm Advnced trip Al Faqa to the truck road

Post by Jayne »

After some nice coffee and lunch at Al Faqa :D we departed for the afternoon run. Hang hope your pax feeling better, see you next time and Malte hope you had a fun afternoon.

We started in surfing the bigger dunes learning the finer techniques of side sloping and then did some training on side cresting, the smiles got bigger and all did a great job :D After 20kms everyone was doing very well and I handed the lead over to Salim staying at 2nd lead. Great job Salim, nice pace and surfing of the dunes for 5km. I decided to take back the lead as there were a few cars in the area.. Al Faqa then started to look like Sheik zayed Road :lol: so change of plan and we took a sabka for 12kms to avoid a huge amount of cars with no flags..

We then got in to a good patch with no cars :D for the final 15kms

Great job at sweeping Salim and good recoveries, thanks Sarah for a good 2nd lead, Luna and Khaled well done on your first advanced trip, you both handled it really well, kept up with the pace and showed nice smooth side cresting and sloping.

Cherif and Sean thanks for your assistance always great to have you, Cherif I will pay you back for the sand shower soon :lol:

I loved leading this afternoon, a fabulous day thanks to a great crew, this is what makes the working week seem all worth while - thank you :D :D
