Love it! This is the kinda wheeling I like. fun climb, cool view, slow roller coaster on the way down.
Rubicon? Use front locker?
Yes, Rubicon with a stick. There is a small gate keeper where my girlfriend dropped the phone, then, a sharp right and you go up the shoot, so, I was rear locker only up that first hill - I was worried about having to 3 point the turn with the front locker on. I did not need it anyway. Then, after we stopped and went straight up with that last vertical part, I had both lockers on. The tires never slipped once. If you listen to the sound, it was all grip.

Would suck to have to back down that. Lol
