We went to the Hollister event last year, my wife thoroughly enjoyed it. The winch demo was at lunchtime, it was very practical and showed everyone what was going on and why. Even including respooling the cable, which was synthetic of course. Helped my wife understand why I was adding all this expensive stuff to a brand new expensive truck - money well spent, baby!
Im doing the Hollister Hills one this year. Ive got some off roading experience, have hit trails a few times and gone wheeling in the snow a bit, but I felt it would be good to get some proper education on this stuff and learn more about how to properly tackle obstacles (Is yelling "Send it!" required or simply recommended?).
One of the things that stood out to me was them talking about winch use demonstrations. Ive got one, but never used the damn thing, and would like some practical experience with it, with a babysitter present.
Worst case scenario, I goof off in the gladiator for a day and meet some fellow jeepers, sounds good!
