Default Welcome to the 21st Century

Gimbal gets a camcorder!

Day out with my boys. They are doing some of the driving AND some of the filming Didn't get much usable footage but did learn a few things about video in the process (takes forever to edit )

I liked it, the best part of it is the fact that you are out there with your son.
You know mom will be hard pressed to say no to that new ***insert whatever*** here with little man saying "please"

cool vid, that off camber section your son was playing on under that rock is cool. you should suggest to him to crabwalk to the right to put a load on the chassis pushing up on the side of the rock.... i wish my dad cared about my crawlers he just makes fun of me for "playing with toys like a baby"

I'm 32 and I still play with my toys like a little kid. I tell my wife that every time I go out too.

On topic, looks like a fun spot to crawl in that vid. The kiddo does pretty good already.

yhea, I like to get outdoors with the boys as much as possible. I hate it when they just sit and play video games all day Crawling is a bit of a stretch for them, patience-wise. But Collin my oldest (in the video) is getting pretty decent.
I set up all our Clods identical this year. Only 4ws, no crab. That way they have a chance to beat dad Crab steer is still too technical for them. They have a hard enough time not pegging the trigger all day

Never too old man. I was just eyeballing a 20" federal bike the other day, and I'm 37

Gimbal, great terrain and it is awesome that you take the boys out, looks like they can drive pretty well too.

Good start on your first video! Definitely some cool footage. I only recommend picking up a tripod for the little one's excited hands. Makes a world of difference in vid quality.
