Just started crawling and found this video when thinking "bouncers looks fun too, but wouldn't they constantly be on their roof?". You answered my question.
If you're just playing, and not paying attention, you can flip. We have drivers that don't flip when racing though. They study the hills, and know they're buggies. It's really fun to watch.
I didn't know that they had an RC version of this type of competition!! Now this I could get into the real version is just not practical in my mind. There's so many different forms of radio control competition now that I couldn't even hope to get into all of it like I used to be 30 years ago
Heck yeah! With this form of rock bouncing, the whole family can be involved for a lot cheaper than buying a big bouncer. I know whole families where mom and dad and kids are involved in the racing. It's a great time!
Thank you for watching and commenting! There are several series spread out across the country. From Washington State to New Hampshire, plus the national series that travels throughout the south east. Pretty much if you want to race these days, it can happen. Let me know if you want help finding a race.
Of course! There is a playlist called "reveals" on this channel. There are several build reveals as well as finished products. I will get some some of the drivers this year, and do some more break down videos. Also check out one of our more recent videos with Beyond Limits and RC Fab Tabs, there is a break down of each buggy there too. It was a lot of fun! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Man, that is awesome to hear. Thank you for watching! It's all in the builders preference really. That's what I love about rock bouncing, is every buggy is different. There is no cookie cutters in rock bouncing. Sure, some fabricators have their own style and a lot of their buggies will resemble the same shape, but they are all different in their own way. You could absolutely design a roof that fits your needs or desires. Welcome to the madness! haha
Thank you for commenting and watching! Yeah, it does get stressful with a few hundred people watching either in person or on the live feed, not to mention the $500 on the line.
nah this is definitely a wheel speed related deal.. loose dirt is the hardest hill climb there is... but the really aggressive tires is where many are making a mistake.. wheel speed n less traction is where ya wanna be.. it's the guys that get bouncing with aggressive tires that back flip n topple themselves out that are out fastest...
Ya know, I was wondering if there were competitions like this ever since I saw the losi rock racer... interesting to see that they do, in fact, have a use. ^_^
Thank you for watching and commenting. This is from 2019. We will be dropping a new video from this past weekend, and you'll get to see some Ryft's ripping up these same hills.
@@RCCommand **** YEAH! That'll be pretty awesome. I've been watching a lot of exocage RC or what ever his name is and his ryft is pretty knarly. I shall subscribe
Thank you for watching and commenting! This is a National Rock Racing Association race. With their rules, you would be able to race the Ryft, in the "plastic class" because it has a plastic chassis. I hope this helps.
Sweet comp and great Rigs! I'm in NC is there going to be one this year? Love that chassis on the rig w/ the American Flag on back that looks like a wicked build!
@@Sublimeshredder an hour north of Charlotte! I'm in a couple of crawler groups on Facebook, such as Carolina scale crawlers and nc/sc crawlers buy sell trade
Why do they have so fast gearing? Is it given by rules of the race? Like.... yeah it is fun, but I have feeling I would do better with my slow Axial Wraith. And I wouldn’t break anything.
Every rig there was capable of make the hill. It's not a point of if they can make the hill, but how fast. We'd love to have you come out and back up your talk!
I dont get it why are these cars not killin this hill?? And why is there no 4 wheel steering on these?? It looks like my revo would drive right up that hill. . maybe in person its steeper then it looks. .
Thank you for watching! Some buggies do have rear steer. If you watch some of my other videos, you'll see guys using it. Your revo would probably do very well. However, they are not allowed, among several other RC platforms. If you would like to check out the rules of this series, you can visit www.nationalrockracing.com. Please come out to an event, and show us what you got!
@@RCCommand ya i figured that lol do u custom build those? They are sick ass cars dont get me wrong i just figured such awesome cars would rip up that hill no problem. . what state do they do those in?
@@2blades_rc650 The sport is so new, that drivers and builders are slowly finding ways to keep them "bouncer" but still function properly. They've come a long way in two years. This race was in TN. The series covers from as far west as Johnson Valley CA to as far east as AL. The schedule can be found at www.nationalrockracing.com.
@@RCCommand nice im in indiana but my dad lives in TN. . . im going to have to try and make some of the events and check it out in person. . thanks for all the info!
If you're looking to just buy a buggy that comes ready to go out of the box, I would recommend the Axial Ryft. A lot of the buggies here are custom built. That doesn't mean you need one to be competitive though.
Thank you for watching and commenting. You can find all the rules for the national series, featured in this video, form their website www.nationalrockracing.com.
Have these guys ever done this before?? I wish I was there to teach em a thing or two. there outta there minds with the acceleration it's just ridiculous, learn control & how & when to accelerate, Im not trying to sound like an idiot although it probably comes off that way, but it's hard to even watch this!! .
Well, then I suggest you come out and give it a shot. Just make sure you're with in the guidelines, and come win some money! It's easy to comment on the internets, when you don't have a few hundred people watching you in person, with a few hundred more watching online, and hundreds of dollars at stake. But in the meantime, thank you for watching and commenting!
There a lot of good chassis builders out there these days. If you are on FaceBook, there are a lot of good groups. I'd start with the RC rock bouncing group or King of the Mountain RC bouncer race series. Hope that helps.
Thank you for commenting. The term came from the beginning of the 1:1 sport. I recommend checking out my sister channel @onthehillwnick or @rockracingtv to see where the name comes from. We travel the country racing these things, and not every part of the country has rocks.
The level on this comp is awesome 👍, awesome trucks, drivers and organization👍👍👍
Thank you for the kind words! We are really looking forward to next year!
That's the coolest rc competition I've ever seen.
That means a lot. Thank you for watching!
Not only that everyone is involved and paying attention. It doesn't seem like a chore or burden to attend this event. The commentary is rc dad af 🤣.

That drivetrain must be insane to switch from forward to reverse in full throttle.
Thank you for commenting! Yeah, these things are usually built for a beat down, just the real thing!
They seem a little over powered
I love this Cup Series!!!! Awesome!!!
These is so cool 😎 you are the best youtober on the world
This race really brought out some a decent crowd. Socfood tocsee these boys race at the 1/10 size. Good stuff Nick!.👍😛
Thank you for always sticking with us this year brother. Your belief in us drives the series to be better and better every race.
Man it doesn't matter if they fail the course, it's still fun. I'd love to see this in my area.

Nice brother
I was sub 982 your getting close out have a couple hundred my to go my self 😁👍
I’m a newbie and this is cool as hell.
Just curious why they are flat on top and no type of curve to help get flipped back over?

Sometimes you just gotta look at it this way...you just gotta look at it.
These guys would do soo much better if they relaxed and didn't rush it would actually save time instead of rolling down the hill 5 times

5:14 champs?
Are you asking if they won? Not the driver at the 5:14 mark, no.
Initial drivers did not seem very good, it picked up quite a bit.

Decent!
I feel like my crawler would go right up it lol
It probably would. The point was not "if" they could make it, it's how fast they can make it. It's a race.
Annoucer is hilarious
Eric is a great guy with a quick wit.
Why do they have so fast gearing? Is it given by rules of the race? Like.... yeah it is fun, but I have feeling I would do better with my slow Axial Wraith. And I wouldn’t break anything.
It's a race. Fastest to the top wins.
Nice! 💪😃👍
Whats a good motor choice ?
Thank you for commenting! Castle recommends a 3800-4600kv motor for rock bouncing. I would need to know how much your buggy weighs.
V8
I'm thinking my Rovan bm 5, 1/5th scale 29cc gasoline powered truck would probably do a little better on that course
I'm sure it would! If they were allowed, we would have a lot different course.
Can I use a dedicated rock crawler to compete??
Thank you for watching, and commenting! describe a dedicated rock crawler. The rules can be found here: nationalrockracing.com/pages/rules
My Stock trx4 will pass the First Hill.
Totaly annoying

I don’t get it.
My stock slash 4x4 can do better
If it were allowed. The rules only allow RC rock bouncers. There are lots of RC's that could probably do it better.
What aironing
nice car
Have these guys ever done this before??
