Snow ?

As in: 'snow business like show business..... :?:

Oh and this ain't snow it's water....



Some work on technique required - or perhaps a SWB mighht have done the job:

Yes, a better technique is to cross at an angle of about 30-40 degrees. Otherwise one runs out of departure angle, as this chap found!

Yes but subject to cross axle-ing unless you have diff locks.

Been there ops:

That bridge looks nice in the back ground. Matt

So if you know that's going to happen you have a little momentum going in say 2 or 3rd low, as soon as the x-axle happens you back off to avoid wheelspin, the momentum carries you through and when one axle can provide traction you feed the power back in.

Took the words right out of my mouth. :wink: Why didnt you know that OI? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

There is always the first time. Then you learn. It is grey matter over lack of judgement.

I got out of that predicament rocking the Disco backwards and forwards until traction was gained.

He took the crossing too slow! If he had enough speed up he could've jumped that!! :wink:
