Team Phoenix may be taking a break this year, but its unwavering spirit and dedication to fostering growth and sharing knowledge inspired the creation of a new force: Team ORYX (Over dunes, Ridges, and Yellow eXpanse) Hey there, future desert champion! Yes, everyone's a champion in my lens — having taken that one big leap from the comfort zone and comfy couch and committing time practising and building off-roading memory muscles in the weekends! 🌵 Are you ready to leave your mark on the dunes and become part of something epic? Team ORYX is on the hunt for one last team member to complete our squad for the Desert Champions Trophy 2024. And trust us — you don’t want to miss this ride. We’re not just any off-roading team. We’re a crew that believes in the power of teamwork, constant learning, and pushing each other to be the best. Think of us as a desert family — whether you’re a dune rookie or an off-road pro, every single member of Team ORYX plays a crucial role. We grow together, we practice together, and we can win together. 🏆 If you're into perfecting those tight maneuvers, fine-tuning your desert driving skills, and having a team that’s got your back at every turn (literally), then you’ll fit right in. We believe that with the right mix of hard work and a whole lot of fun, success on the sand is inevitable. After all, it’s not just about the finish line — it’s about the journey we take together. So, are you ready to gear up and make possible history with Team ORYX? If yes, hit us up and let’s get you off-roading towards greatness.

What you perhaps can do is buy the Garmin GLO 2: Garmin GLO 2: Reviewed By A Professional Navigator – Casual Navigation This bluetooth GPS receiver can pair with your ipad, so you end up having more accurate GPS reception. Device overheating is indeed a bit of an issue. I usually try to mount my devices in front of an AC vent to keep them cool, or sometimes hang a piece of cloth inbetween the device and the windshield to keep it in the shade.

Well deserved @Abhishek Chikara !

Well deserved @Andrew John Melvill!!

Thanks All for the kind words. Really looking forward to the new adventures and skills that intermediate level will bring. @DP1011 yes I will keep unleashing pajero power, thanks for getting me to believe in it 🫡. Also plan to do a few more lower level drives to start building my support skills.

Hi, Will be my 1st newbie drive on 19th. Just got an offroad capable vehicle. 2024 Jeep Wrangler Light Blue 2dr. Watched the newbie video briefing. I will buy the 2way radio from dragon mart and the offroad flag this week. Is it mandatory to have an air compressor for the drive? I will buy one soon, but did not want to buy all the necessary equipment before my 1st ride. Want to see the different options out there. Is that okay? Thank you

Congrats!!! 🎉

Thanks @Emanuel.. being the first and. second to get stuck is all part of the plan 😂😂😂😂 Thanks again @DP1011 and everyone for the wonderful time and showing up to this drive… means a lot to me. Our adventures and moments together specially from yesterday will always remain central to my heart.

Update: I have my new steel (black) steering box installed for free (good that I got the extended warranty after I bought the car). NIGHT AND DAY DIFFERENCE! no more excessive steering wheel play, full in control. 🤣
