People are free to take pictures and videos, as long as they do not involve gatherings or are of others without their consent I guess. I used to use a GoPro fixed somewhere on the car, so that's an option as well. After the drive, a gallery will be available for everyone to share their photos and videos. I am sorry I don't have GoPro.. Guys if any body has it would be great to bring it and we could fix it in the last Car. Later I can get the video edited in smaller clips. When it comes to the specific Dunes where we do it individual we can record and share....Just to capture some funny and memorable moments. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably be the last car so do not worry re photos and videos of the drive. I enjoy documenting it and offering drivers the chance to see their cars in action 😉 If @Foxtrot Oscar lends me her GoPro again (which I'll never give back 😝), then I can set it up as well. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a GoPro and usually bring it with me, later i upload the video to You tube due to size restrictions on Carnity gallery. Happy to be the second last car @Emmanuel or last car even and capture the whole trip, i have spare batteries to cover the whole trip.

Happy to be the second last car @Emmanuel or last car even and capture the whole trip, i have spare batteries to cover the whole trip. I said it first so back off 😁 Seriously now, allocating a position in the convoy depends on a number of factors, and having a GoOro is definitely not one of them 😉. Especially the sweep (last car in the convoy) which needs to be a bit more experienced driver as he/she has several duties such as keeping an eye on the whole convoy and supervising recoveries of the second half of the convoy after the CF position (Center Forward). What I mean by this is that it is not always possible to accommodate such requests for the aforementioned reasons. I hope you understand what I’m trying to say. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeromeFJ Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 Thank you @Emmanuel for the guidance through the dunes this morning. Very scenic drive ! And thanks to @Desert Dweller for the support! See you in a next drive 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Desert Dweller Posted March 27, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 As always, it was a pleasure to support @Emmanuel's drive. Having @Brette in the same convoy was an excellent extra. Two very calm and patient marshals, which made the drive enjoyable and go very smoothly. I was pleased to see several new faces as well, and have the chance to observe everyone from the back of the convoy and check their skills handling the dunes and their cars. I believe that @JeromeFJ did really well as second lead, rerouting when asked to, which made it easier for the rest of the cars to follow the tracks. @yunus Kazi's Pathfinder struggled a bit to find the path 😁. However, he managed to recover and learned a few useful tricks. @Chris Wing, @Adhir Saxena, @Ammar Naji, and @Sai Baskaran did extremely well with minimal to no refusals despite the patches of soft sand. @Kenneth Bollhardt handles the Prado exceptionally well despite being at the back of the convoy where the track gets a bit churned up, and so did the fellow wrangler drivers @I.M. Shousha and @Ehunaiti (congrats on the Fewbie promotion, btw). All in all, it was absolutely worth the early rise! Photos and videos will be shared in the drive's gallery. Hope you all enjoyed and see you soon again in the sand! 3 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wing Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 For my second drive with Carnity it was awesome! Still a lot to learn but I'm happy about the pace and progressive skill honing drives we do; builds our confidence nicely. Carnity is now my recurring Friday event thanks to @Emmanuel for leading us and hopefully I'll get to meet all those who participated in future drives. And thanks @Desert Dweller , I got a couple of refusals but it's all learning experiences also @JeromeFJ will be leading soon I'm sure 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
