Many thanks for the beautiful drive yesterday @M.Seidam ! You have composed a great itinerary, with the initial warm-up on the long range dunes, then the technical portion, where we could seen that keeping the momentum and the balance of the car is very important. Once fully awake, we could start the long ridge riding ! It was beautiful from the back to see the full convoy aligned on these long ridges, with the wind blowing sand from the side. Again on the ridge itself, momentum (and not speed) is the key, to keep the balance of the car, and avoid fighting the gravity. When needed, the drivers have exited safely on one side or the other, following the recommendations of @M.Seidam. We had a few stucks, nothing major, giving the opportunity for shoveling, and twice, we finally used the rope to save time. that's part of the learning also. Yesterday the wind was also in the party, I still have sand in my eyes !! The convoy drove very well, following your tracks and recommendations. @topgear, excellent 2nd lead, holding and rerouting when needed. You could test the self recovery capabilities of the FJ from a crest ! @Faisal Alhashimi, very well driven, following accurately the tracks of the 2nd lead @Morshedi, keep driving, you will control your speed and find the right momentum to stay on the ridges and limit your fishtailing on the side slopes. @Tom V, well done, continue to practice to find the balance between speed and momentum on the ridges. @Imteeaz Goolamhossen, well driven also, once the tire pressure was adjusted ! @Marcin Wronowski, @Simon Claes, @Peter Hager very comfortable yesterday, for you it was like a drive in the park ! Thanks @Looper for the support in the recoveries ! Enjoy the week !

For the trenches crossing the dunes, and the cables and sensors, you can have a look at this previous post. it does not make them better, but at least we understand the purpose !

Many thanks @Mehmet Volga for the drive today ! Despite the cross tracks and ditches, you managed to take us from one face to the other, from one bowl to the new one. Even if the pace was discontinued, we could really enjoy each of the play areas. Thank you also for the detailed drive report. Playing was really the word of the day, as it seems we have each of us enjoyed a lot taking the different challenges, pushing our cars higher on the slopes, and challenging each other in an always friendly way. @Zed, excellent 2nd lead, and always so enthusiastic @Karthikeyan Govindarajan, @Josh T., nice meeting you for the first time, @Pacific, for the first time in Sweihan, you pushed the Jeep to the top, @Hasan Wahlan, always a pleasure to drive with you. @Farouq Owdeh, the sound of your engine made me believe mine was off ! Excellent level for the group, good drive, good laughs, all what we need ! Thank you all. (See a few pics in the gallery, waiting for the videos ) @Srikumarsorry to hear your mishap, hopefully it can get fixed without too much troubles…
