  • The Rubicon has a reputation for being one of the most iconic Jeep trails in the world and for a reason - It’s crazy beautiful and of course, it has some of the most challenging and non stop rock crawling fun that you can find anywhere. In this second, of our 2 part series highlighting, the Other Rubicon, you’ll get to see us take on the Little Sluice, the Old Sluice or True Sluice, the Big Sluice and more of the optional lines and obstacles that you can find all along the way and to the very end of the trail. We hope you enjoy.

    Nice video. Great to see people taking challenging lines to better/improve the driver skill level up to the limit of the equipment. Building the driver and spotter relationship and improving each others skill level to the limit of the equipment is entertaining. When your skill level is limited by the equipment, then it is time to improve/modify the rig to allow additional driver/spotter skill level to try more challenging trails or lines. Nice job to the group and great videos. Thanks for sharing.
