At the little store on the way in to Sandlake. Al needed a flag.

Airing down(to 15psi) and attaching our flags.

Al's awesome paint job. Now I'm not much of a flame fan, but this paint job is soooo friggin' cool. Watching this H2 go blowing across the dunes is really fun!!

Getting ready to hit the bowl face. We're about 300 yards away from the bowl.

There is my personal water buffalo hole. I did my best to empty that little lake all by myself. I did a pretty good job, too. Over the period of about 4 hours I think I dropped the level of water about 1 1/2 feet.

Rick and Al can have fun with just about anything. We tried to find a Mini Cooper, but no luck.

Brother Rick was having a great time with this big piece of driftwood.

Fire on the dunes.

My favorite tactic was to wallow around through the 2ft+ deep water, picking up as much water as the Beast would carry, and then race up the bowl and carve hard and head back down dousing the path behind me.

End of the day. Airing back up, taking the flags off and shaking out some of the sand.

I wish I could figure out how to post some analog video. I've got a lot of footage of my water escapades. Does water up to the windshield sound good? Just briefly- don't get excited. No sinkings this time.

What a fantastic paint job on the yellow/orange H2 - Is this the type of work he does? Did he design it - Beautiful

Sorry for the second post - What size tires are on each vehicle? Are they 37 and did they rub alot - what is the air preassure on the road versus off?

Thanks
