Early Intermediates in Butais: 26/6/21

Post by EmDoc »

The Team

Shared lead/support: Michael & Kevin
Shajumon (2nd lead)
Fraser
Mohamed
Anvar
Chrismon
Reji (sweeper)

This was a tale of two leads.

Part one, with me at the front, we started off in a technical area for driver focus and improvement of vehicle control; side sloping across dune faces, up stepped ascents and down steep descents and around bowls.

Part two, halfway through and as we entered more open dunes Kevin took over and provided the opportunity to practice larger and higher side slopes and sweeping manoeuvrers at a faster pace.

Due to the soft sand there were a few stucks and some second/third tries but they were all handled well and aided learning, with driver confidence increasing throughout the trip. It was a good morning out. Thanks everyone for joining and to Kevin for sharing the lead and giving the drivers two trips in one.

Stay safe and see all again soon.

Fully utilized  two marshals presents.  68 Km morning drive was amazing! Fully technical! This time I practice speed control. Realized that the technical trips are challenging as well as thrilling. Thank your Michel and Kevin for your time and support.
