  1. @Ale Vallecchi looking forward to the extra challenge on tomorrows terrain I’ll see you then
  2. @Islam Soliman what an amazing drive! Thanks for the opportunity to ride alongside you in 2nd lead I enjoy to take any opportunity I can to develop skills with recovery and most importantly how to do this safely. I’m looking forward to the next drive with you! Enjoy the rest of the weekend. amazing drive to everyone else who attended it was amazing to see the massive link of cars riding through the desert. Great job to the absolute newbies and newbies this drive truly put skills to the test. @munkybizness great to see you again out on the trail looking forward to joining more drives with you soon
  3. @Simon Dawood Congrats on the promotion. Have a good one mate
  4. @Haitham Khattab congrats on the promotion mate have a good one
  5. @Vaibhav Thank you! it was great being back out on the trail with you again, looking to improve my driving every time I'm out in the sand. Hope to see you soon! @Brette Great drive once again! hope to see you soon. Hopefully there won't be a need for a rescue mission of your rear reflective light 😄
  6. @Looper Thanks for the help and advice, we are looking into rear bumpers. So far the zip ties are holding up but I couldn't imagine it will be long before I'm looking at my rear bumper in the sand hope to see again on the trail soon
  7. @Gary F it probably Won’t be the last time I’ve gotta save you… again 😂
  8. @Brette no worries I have a spare radio programmed here that I can give him thanks
  9. @Felix Obst Thank you very much! You drove very well too
  10. @Felix Obst sounds like we need to sort a public announcement that lambos and sand don’t mix well! 😂 well done on your recovery too
  11. @Lawrence_Chehimi sounds like if I head in that direction I’ll be running a small scale business 😂 after everyone’s responses Im going to be more vigilant about these people and hopefully I’ll be able to avoid those interactions. As I’m also a very young driver at the age of 19 everyone’s advice is very welcome. Can’t believe there are some people out there that won’t accept the advice or help for that matter… hope to see you out in the desert sometime soon
  12. @Islam SolimanGreat drive on Saturday I really enjoyed it I couldn’t agree with you more and a lot of consideration went into the recovery luckily i had a spare radio so there was some communication. And I made sure to explain the recovery to the driver who seemed to have the best English out of the group. if I’m ever in a situation that I spot a stuck car again I’ll consider these factors. Thank you for the pointers this is exactly what I was looking for so I can improve on my skills cheers. See you on the sand soon
  13. @Gaurav I am keen to help people out but at the same time I want to do it safely that’s why I’ve enjoyed my time at carnity these past few months. I’m very interested and constantly ready to learn especially on the sand. I’ll definitely learn more from the marshals during the drives and always be ready with questions. cheers. Hope to see you out on the sand
  14. @Simon Dawood this information has definitely helped and improved my understanding on the people you meet out in the sand, I truly appreciate the pointers and will consider them the next time I think about helping someone out. When helping these people out I ensured everyone’s safety even through the language barrier. Fortunately these people were thankful and I felt very comfortable in the situation however next time I’ll consider your experience and everyone else’s. I’m happy that I’m getting replies as this really helps my off-road knowledge and safety of myself and my passengers. cheers. Hope to see you out in the sand soon
  15. @Mike. I love this idea and think it would be great considering how often I drive with passengers. Hope to see you soon mate!
  16. @Furpg generally getting stuck is part of the fun. Testing your own limits and the car.
  17. @Frederic thank you for the helpful advice I will take it into consideration for sure. The original purpose of the drive was just some off-roading fun(of course safely) but quickly turned into recovery practice
  18. @Carnity Good evening everyone, I wanted to write this in general discussions to generally thank the community for the warm welcome. Most importantly teaching me many of the important techniques to drive in the desert and recover myself and other individuals safely. earlier on today I visited the half desert road with my dad @Furpg to test the new jeep gladiator and generally improve upon my own navigation skills for the future. Along the journey we had a pretty hands on refusal with shoveling which eventually lead to my dads first self recovery which was good to see on itself After passing by roads covered in sand I noticed a Lamborghini urus that got stuck in the sand which I gladly held the offer to recover their car. Self recovery was a no go because they didn’t speak well English, so instead I resorted to a kinetic rope pull which I’ve assisted on a few occasions but never have done myself below I’ve attached a photo of the recovery because unfortunately I can’t attach a video (which would’ve been great for some constructive criticism) also below I will attach a photo of the drive. The recovery was a success, which brought a thought to my mind that it would be great to visit that area during winter to help with recoveries. And finally I want to bring a special thanks to @Brette @Hisham Masaad and every other experienced driver + marshal I’ve drove with in the past that taught me the safety and introduction to off-road See everyone on the sand soon!
  19. @Brette saw the mount… thought it would be good to get my good side 😂
