Good evening, It was a pleasure to meet and drive with you guys last night. The dunes were tall and humongous. Before sunset we were able to practice some long sides and criss-crossings. Seeing how each and every one was driving, I became confident to take the team to the famous Nagrah hill. Unfortunately we had to exit @Taufique Surve very early due to over heating issue. Throughout the drive we were able to drive with good pace. Towards nagrah side, we were continuously driving at high elevation. We had minimum refusals and didn't need any rope recovery. Well done guys.👍👌 @Mus_hus78 you did a fantastic job as SL. Very quick response when ever needed. @Gok Krish thank you for accompanying me to Sweihan and providing assistance and rerouting to the team. You handled CF role very well. @Zed @Hasan Wahlan @Farouq Owdeh you guys drove effortlessly like experts. Kudos to you👍 @Karthikeyan Govindarajan handled his heavy LC very well. I felt you were shy on gas at some places. @Xavier Treasurer was the lone wolf at the end sweeping everyone. Great sweep and I don't think you had any refusals👍 Stats from the drive Looking forward for more drives with you all. Kindly share the pictures taken on our gallery. Cheers!

Good Afternoon, Thank you all for joining me last night. We were able to maintain the momentum throughout the drive. The convoy did exceptionally well; allowing me to tick box all the plan I had in mind which were: ✅ Step up the speed and drive through the Murqab track- I did not have to slow down as the convoy was easily catching up without any issues ✅ Practice Ridge riding and Criss crossing before sunset: We had new fewbies joining us. To give them a taste of ridge riding & criss crossing, we were able to find some candidate dunes and practice one by one. ✅Night driving from Lisaily to Solar Park- After sunset, we had long distance to cover. The convoy managed the night drive easily with least refusals and stucks. We had reached the exit point before planned time. Well done everyone👍 ✅No Pop out- We did not have any pop-out during the drive, which means every one's driving approach angle was good. @Thomas Varghese- You did a great job in communicating and giving the proper instructions as second lead. You were driving very close to me most of the time, giving response time in case I had to re-route. I do understand X-terra might not able to power up like Wrangler, in that case you should accordingly delay the start to make sure that you do not come close in any situation. I emphasis SL keeping constant distance during night drive because unlike day drive, the lead will not have a clear visual ahead. There are chances lead might encounter a sudden pocket / drop. This did not happen yesterday, but could happen in future, so make sure you don't go too close. @Fabien Monleau- Good to see you cope quickly in the fewbie level. In the ridge riding & criss cross practice session you did really good. Well managed self recovery when you got refusal👌. Rather than just pulling you out, we guided you to self recover. The key is to not panic, and good movement with steering during self recovery. I was impressed with 76 LC's power, it just came out easily in 4L. @Gok Krish- You were flawless in your position and executing the responsibilities given to you . The idea of putting an experience driver before new fewbie was to make sure slight re-routing if track is churned, make sure Wade can follow you at all time without loosing site. Also👍 👍 for the split second maneuvering and brake when @Fabien Monleau had a refusal. Your experience really come in handy there!! @Wade Pat2- Same comments as Fabien, you quickly adapted in FB level. You did great in ridge riding and criss-crossing. Couple of crested situations, with more fewbie drives once you're back from vacation, you will master in crossing dune with right amount of acceleration. Well done on your first fewbie👍. Enjoy your break. @Farouq Owdeh- I could hear your HEMI roaring in the front. You managed well. I was told you had a bit of fishtailing, please make sure that you steer down when you loose momentum, driving in Dubai dunes which are relatively small, you might get away with fishtailing. But you drive mostly in Abu Dhabi, with huge tall dunes, things can go really wrong when fishtailing. @Rob H- You were fantastic as a CF and in handling your Thundra. You handled recoveries and assistance while refusals very well. @Ehab- Ehab has got so good in driving that I could put him behind CF and not worry about him. 👌 @Chaitanya D- Having Chaitanya in my drive, I could leave the convoy with him and focus on leading. Thanks a lot for your support. Good to have you🙏 Please find the stats of the drive below. And special thanks to @Thomas Varghese for the brilliant night shots of our convoy. (check out the gallery) See you all soon!
