Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
well now, that is certainly interesting. I can certainly see that as a test of your ability to properly and deftly use your pedals, however a "ballance" test I dunno. Still looks like it would be a fun challenge to take on. Def one you could make a contest out of to see who could get it the quickest.

Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
We could certainly make a set of those for the next 101.
A real balance test is a full size teeter totter!
There was one at a GAJR years ago. Was comical watch people struggle on it.

That seems nearly impossible as once you realize you need to go in the other direction, it's too late.Kurt wrote:A real balance test is a full size teeter totter!

Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
Think of the possibilities of combining both videos balance tests into one!

Had this at the Rally to.
We are hoping to add a teeter totter in the next year or so. Hoping to add a lot actually.

Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
I like this one. Adds the throttle control, clutch control, and braking modulation while also allowing for success!schwalby wrote:Had this at the Rally to.

Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
I'd be inclined to suggest flat spotting the log so that it's at least possible to achieve and maintain a balance - especially at a 101.

Re: Something NEW for Our Jeep 101
There was a teeter totter at the first ever Jeep 101. It was a trailer that was set up on a couple of triangular metal stands - no flat spots. I saw maybe 2 or 3 % of the peeps who tried it succeed.
