Not when you are talking a scratch no bigger than AA battery. I'll have to post a photo. It's literally just some scratched paint.

Nice pic's and video's. :rockon:

Did any of you guys air down? If you did, how far down did you go? In the video's, it doesn't look like most of you all aired down.

And did any of you see the old guy with the ford LTD running the trails?

We saw a young kid in a Ford F250 early 90s diesel, he walked right up Escalator in under a minute with no spotter and without even looking out the window like it was nothing.

We all air'd down. I was running 29psi that day.

I spoke to him at the top, said he's done it 4 times now.

Just got back from Moab Rim..... Well I decided to go about 5pm, it's 6:30 now. I turned around at the Z turn to make my way back. TOTALLY DIFFERENT on the way down!!!!! Had to ask for help spotting, easily getting more than 35° front and close to that off on the side! I'll see what I got on the gopro to post up. VERY GNARLY angles and feeling, yeah I could actually start to feel it! Three wheeling it on the way down in one spot on Devil's Crack! I actually started to get a little adrenaline rush! hahaha!

I ran at 27 psi in the front and 22 in the rear. It was probably the most fun I've ever had. Thanks to everybody for letting me tag along.

Yes! I know, nuts! I should have had a spotter on the this, I was having a wild moment and wanted to do a late run!

Moab rim with our trucks would be not the Smartest. The length of them would be a real hinderance. It's a good thing you didn't try the Z turn. Coming back down would have been bad. I almost rolled my YJ there and I watched a buggy flop coming down Devils crack last month. Moab Rim trail is hella fun but it's not a full sized trail.

Hahaha, yeah, I started to go up the Z turn and was starting to slide off the right. I started all the way on the left. Got out and took a good long look and decided to come back down, that's when I knew that things were going to get quite interesting to say the least! lol!
