FLATED ROADTRIPS! 015 | Dirt Bike Race in Rock Springs, Wyoming
Ken Hoeve, co-founder of FLATED®, recently hit the road to Rock Springs, Wyoming, for an adrenaline-filled weekend of dirt bike racing. With his trusty truck equipped with the FLATED Air-Topper®, Ken set up camp right at the track, turning his truck bed into a comfortable basecamp for the adventure. The race was a family affair, as Ken not only competed but also enjoyed watching his son carve up the course with speed and precision. When it came time to hit the track himself, Ken brought his A-game, navigating the rugged terrain and fierce competition to secure an impressive 3rd place finish in the 50+ division.
The weekend was a perfect mix of competition and connection, with evenings spent around the campfire under Wyoming’s wide-open sky and early mornings filled with the excitement of race day. The Air-Topper® once again proved its value-providing Ken with a reliable, cozy setup to rest and recharge between heats. Whether on the track or cheering from the sidelines, Ken’s journey to Rock Springs highlighted FLATED’s mission of blending performance, adventure, and innovation into every experience. From dirt bike races to the open road, FLATED® products are built for those who live to explore and push boundaries.

It saddens me this isn’t real.
So far I’m happy with the top on my ram 2500 power wagon it pass the rain test will see next week when I’m heading to Tahoe see how it do with snow and extreme cold.
Any way to lock it? So it cant get stollen.
@@billemrich6755 Thanks for the question, you can use a cable lock from a D-Ring to a tie down point.
Someday!
I’m in Denver. Is there a place/store to see these accessories in person. I just bought a Tacoma and looking at options.
I’m up in Eagle County. If you ever get up this way I can show you this one that’s on my Tacoma.
Still waiting for an extension to the 5 foot air bed in my Tacoma ….. feet hang over the end. I’m 6-2 Have the air topper on my taco 24/7 get lots of questions.
We’ve got something cool in the works.
Take my money 💰
Awesome topper 🎉 great solution for Ram Power Wagon Rambox 6"4 ❤
How do I measure my truck correctly for this topper?
@@TSunshineful you can put your truck into our “Find Your Vehicle” at Flated.com and it will show you the correct size for your truck.
Not for $1800
That's actually pretty cool
Thank you! We don’t recommend it but couldn’t resist.
Great piece of marketing!
Flated, it's time for an inflatable rooftop tent
The company who owns proprietary tech of drop stitching actually makes inflatable kayaks
Mine arrives this week! Can't wait to get it installed.
Very nice, too much badging (especially on the windows) for my taste though.
Im buying one, pairing this with the deckd drawer system
Does the inside retain heat at all?
@@mikebrunais2959 the Air-Topper® has a R1 insulation factor so it does retain some heat.
Hi Ken, It's so cool to see you guys enjoying Baja. We used to go to San Felipe when were young. I'm loving my Air Topper on my 2020 F250. I just got it and we're in the middle of a year long road trip pulling our Toy Hauler. I'm so excited my stuff in the truck will be dry now. Also super excited about doing some camp trips, dirt bike trips using this bad boy. Loving your product!!
@@kangarookid2 thanks for comment and glad you’re enjoying your Air-Topper®! Send us some photos on your truck🤙
Thank you! We had such a great time.
Nice one Ken
Thanks JT!
Couldn't decide between this or a canvas topper. You just made my mind up!😀👍
Can you do one of these for the deck?
Not easy to fold. I have the Mid rise for my 5'7" RAM bed. I am 5'7" and 130lbs. I now have a strained back trying to fold this sucker up. I did follow the instructions to the T. I finally resorted to ratchet straps. The whole process of cleaning, applying 303, deflating and folding ( if you can call it that) took almost 2 hours.
How much will these be selling for? Thanks!
Is this available for the ridgeline?
@@asiansrule45 yes we have that size flated.com/products/air-topper-cap-mid-size-5-bed-x
Love my Flated Topper for camping.
Thanks for the comment! You're the best.
Hey Ken… Just pulled up your North Carolina video. You’re a good man brother… Thank you for sending love from Colorado to these folks. I’m in North Georgia so it’s pretty close to us as well. It’s heartbreaking to see all the damage and these people have lost their livelihood not have lost their means of income. Just wanted to say thanks brother. I enjoy your videos whether it be here or they’re in Colorado. We still need to hook up and do a couple runs together. The boys and I will be there January 22 this year so I’ll reach out to you. Take care man.
I will forward this message to Ken (this is his business partner responding), but thanks for commenting and I'll make sure he gets this.
Thank you. This was a special trip to one of my favorite places. I would have never guessed that something so devastating could have occurred just a couple days after leaving Black Mountain. That area is beyond beautiful and many of my friends live there as well. I appreciate your kind words. And yes, get to Colorado one of these days. There’s adventures to be had!
Great intro. Doing Cape Lookout in December.
Have fun! Name one place in the US you haven't been, that sounds more like it Marty.
I have a topper are you guys coming out with a truck mattress???
Check out our Air-Deck® here: flated.com/collections/air-deck
Whattttttt🤔🤔🤔🤔.. dang you are crazy smart ❤️it
Thanks for the comment!
Definitely has had some practice, it dod not fold as easy as he makes ot look
You'll get it after a few times. Make sure you pump all of the air out and do your folds where it naturally wants to go.
Ken, would this work to extend the flaps on the side of the topper?
@@jeffhoganson6370 yes, same process to laminate to the side flaps but will void the warranty if you do.
@@FLATED hmm any warrantee approved way to do it?
@@jeffhoganson6370 what are you adding to the flaps?
@@FLATED a small 3 inch vinyl/rubber patch to stop water ingress at the bottom corner of the topper where the side flap that drapes over the truck bed meets with the flap that covers the back plastic window.
@@jeffhoganson6370 It would be ideal to attach to the window flap becuase the window is easily replaced. If it has to go on the topper structure that is where you will run into a warranty issue. We have not seen any water ingress on those back corners since we added those back flaps, can you send us a photo at info@flated.com?
Best product! Love ours! Compact storage, stores gear SUP and kayaks on top, just camped in it at Yosemite - lots of compliments! Brillant product for those of us who use the truck bed for truck things and can't commit to a hard top!
Thanks @bfoles506! What a great comment.🤙
I was just there the weekend of September 6th. When was this filmed?
On Sept. 29th
@@corybiodrowski9787 Ken filmed this the week before it was posted so it was the begging of October.
What does everyone use for heat inside these things!
@@DJStroble you can use anything as long as it’s not touching the inner sides of the Air-Topper®.
Has anyone had issues with their camper scratching the paint on the truck?
@@ryanfox1748 All of the newer Air-Topper®’s come with PPF to apply on the tailgate to protect the paint.
Would be cool to somehow have a snowboard rack up there
@@DJStroble we have that as well, we named it the Air-Carrier® Sport.
how about safety? anyone can break into the bed?
@@papillon5537 we always tell people to put valuables in the cab or under the Air-Deck® for the best security. These days the cab of your truck is not secure with all of the black market tech that criminals are using to steal cars and trucks.
I tried it. It wont roll that way. It's too stiff.
@@AboutAwesome did you use the deflate mode on the pump to get all of the air out of each chamber?
Thinking about this for my 2025 maverick on order. You have a black one by chance? Also some gear clips on the outside and plug in light that could plug into the maverick truck bed and a way to open the windows with a mesh lining would be nice. I heard that this improves mpg as welll because of how light and the aerodynamics
Sorry but we do not make them in black just the dark grey. We suggest getting a tailgate break light if you plan to have the Air-Topper® on for a long period of time. There are many third party tailgate break lights that are easy to install. Thanks for reaching out.
What's diy about it?
Exactly
These can’t be water tight!
The Air-Topper® is now on Gen 5 with the addition of a rain flap that goes around the bottom edge of the canopy. The addition of the rain flap and improvements on the back window makes it extremely water tight.
hurry up with some sort of Flated cap extension for short bed trucks.... Ken !!!!!!!
@@jeffhoganson6370 it’s in the works, stay tuned
New upgrades coming this year?
@@dillon9147 we are constantly making improvements to our products. This year you got the rain skirt for a dryer fit, back window improvements, the cab high CAP construction, reinforcements all around, and better window roll up system, just to mention a few. We are listening to your comments and will continue to improve and add features so thanks for the question.
Put a link to your site in the video description
Flated.com
Introduced it but didn't explain what it did? Sure.
The FLATED Air-Carrier® gets all of the junk out of your trunk and puts it on your rooftop.
Don't rush... got mine today... Sept 17, 2024. must be the previous version. Only two chambers, guess they are selling and shipping the older version until they have depleted the old stock. I'm disappointed that it isn't as advertised. Assume the 2 chamber they sent me isn't as good as the 4 chamber that they now say is the improved version. Cost me a fortune to return so just stuck
Hi Mark, you must have ordered the CAP rather than the Mid-Rise. The CAP (2x chambers), sits flush with the cab of your truck and the Mid-Rise has bump up (4x chambers). All of current inventory that we've been shipping for the past 2 months is the current generation so thats the only thing that makes sense. I hope you like it if but you had your heart set on the Mid-Rise please reach out to our customer service at flated.com.
Mine only has 2 as well. Just delivered today. I thought mine was the 4th Gen as well. I have the lower one not the taller one. Maybe that is still just 2?
That is correct about the low profile CAP version, it only has 2 chambers. The Mid-Rise has 4 Chambers and has a little more headroom.
You beat us to the motor boat idea haha! We still have a few good ideas to one-up ya though!
How much does this cost?
@@asiansrule45 between $1k and $2k depending on size and construction.
ITS A TWO DAY TRIP! WHAT ARE YOU? DIANA ROSS???
