Dorris Leeper preserve in northern New Smyrna had some fun trails; there are two entrances, the one down the long dirt road is the one i prefer.
This was filmed along a creek just west of the parking lot there(Under the bridge with a thick metal gate). Decent area to find some fun hill sections to just scale crawl.
After decent rain spells, this creek does NOT seem to fill up much deeper than seen here, makes for a good year round spot.
Ive never been, but you may wanna check that park down 421 west of 95, Cracker Creek Canoeing; could have some hidden gems there.

Aside from that, near the beaches, check run off drains, they're often surrounded by decent sized coquina rocks that sometimes have fun, short lines.

RRW krawlzone in Belleview Fl big competition last weekend of January best krawling in Florida with 2 huge courses check their website. 1 1/2 hours from Port Orange

Re: Port orange
 

Thanks buddy , i'll look it up "thumbsup"

Re: Port orange
 

Yea Rrw crawl zone is awesome!

Re: Port orange
 

Any of you guys going to rrw for any of the comps coming up or just a fun run? Let me know ahead of time. I'm new to the hobby & interested in meeting some local guys that are into the hobby. I live a few miles from there. Haven't gotten to go there other than to look, but thinking about going on the 20th to check out the comp.

Re: Port orange
 

Anyone new around here yet , High Fly hobby been saling scalers , where you guys running at

Re: Port orange
 

I'm just getting into crawling, I've played with RC off and on (mostly off) since Reagan was president. I'm really hoping to find some local spots and people to run at/with, but it seems like all the activity is nearer to Ocala.

There are some great parks andrecreation mountain bike trails in the area, so maybe if we can scrape a handful of people together there's hope for a scene. Otherwise I'm gonna burn a lot of gas between here and Ocala!

Anybody else out there? Sound off!

Re: Port orange
 

Where is that located , been so long since I've ran mine , i forget how they work , lol

Re: Port orange
 

They're way the hell out in Belleview. It was about an hour and a half ride for me so probably a tick longer for you, but I had a great time and thought it was worth the trip. They do proper competition events every other weekend, and there are a ton of cool bridges and rock piles and mud pits.

There are plenty of parks and such in this area, but nothing with man-made obstacles that I know of. I'm thinking of trying the mountain bike trails in Ormond this week...unless you know of a spot in your area.

Re: Port orange
 

I haven't found anything around here , the guys a High fly hobbies don't know of any either in this area

Re: Port orange
 

Belleview area has scale mountain and the Santos tiny truck trail. Working on a crawl day at the Santos trail on the 21st of July of you guys are interested.

Re: Port orange
 

What area is that?

Re: Port orange
 

Belleview area. I live about 10 mins from both. I prefer Santos but scale mountain is a great place to crawl. Good people and a great course

Re: Port orange
 

Next Sunday July 21st at 7:30 am there will be a group of us running at the Santos tiny truck trail if you're interested come on out and join us

Re: Port orange
 

That would be great , but i couldn't afford to gas there in my jeep , its a hog :oops:

Re: Port orange
 

Hahaha I know the feeling, oldman.

I'm thinking about Scale Mountain tomorrow but I might just head to a construction site nearby. My backyard needs more obstacles!

Flat land , mosquito and gators , hard to find a good spot here , lol

Re: Port orange
 

It was worth a shot. If you ever decide to head up this way give me a shout

Re: Port orange
 

Thanks , ill do that"thumbsup"

Re: Port orange
 

Yeah, I'll definitely make it out to Santos eventually, I've been meaning to head there for the bike trails so now I have twice as ma I good excuses.

I'd do it on the 21st but my GF is flying back in that day and I have 1:1 needs that need to be addressed. [emoji48]

Re: Port orange
 

Found a guy in Ormond beach , we should try and get together sometime

Re: Port orange
 

Definitely! I'm looking forward to meeting up.

I found some spots in Palm Coast/Flager area, but nothing great nearby. Then again, any construction site should have a pile of dirt that would be fun to crawl.

Re: Port orange
 

Some buddies and I are headed to scale mountain (old RRW) next Sunday the 15th for some fun crawling. If any of you guys are interested in joining your more then welcome to. Should be a damn good time.

Re: Port orange
 

That sounds pretty ideal, actually. I'd be coming straight from work but that's not so bad. What time are you planning to get there?

Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Re: Port orange
 

I think they open at 8 so that's probably when we'll get there.

Re: Port orange
 

I'll be leaving work around 7,so I should be there around 830 or 9. Solid plan!

How about you, Old man? Feel like coming out that far?

to know what I look like. Look forward to running with you! Always enjoy meeting new people. Come on out Old Man! it'll be a great time. Looking like 5 of us at the moment. Nothing serious just having a good time and getting some footage for the channel.

Re: Port orange
 

Hmmm... The weather doesn't look promising. Fingers crossed that it's all hype.

Re: Port orange
 

I will be watching it for sure. As long as it's not pouring we'll be there. Right now I don't see much rain with that storm, but could change.

Re: Port orange
 

Looking like it's gonna be nice tomorrow! Getting stoked!!!

Re: Port orange
 

We had a crisis at work and I was stuck there late, so I missed today. I hope we can try again in the future!
