****IMPORTANT…. FISHING LICENSE, GEAR AND SURFING OR FISHING PERMIT REQUIRED! WE WILL NOT HELP OR ASSOCIATE WITH ANYONE NOT IN FULL COMPLIANCE OF STATE REGULATIONS!!!!!***** read the back of your permit for required gear and come prepared please!
This will be our 5th beach driving class. In past years we had about 60 vehicles show up and it was a great success. We even showed some AWD not 4WD vehicles that are beach capable how to navigate the beach with ease. *if you are unsure if your vehicle is beach compatible reach out to myself or the moderators and we’ll let you know beforehand*
***IMPORTANT….. WE WILL MEET AT ROBERT MOSES FIELD 2 PARKING LOT IN THE WESTERN MOST AREA THEN PROCEED TO DEMOCRAT POINT***
This gives us space to wait for arrivals and go over the plan, have introductions etc, and not be in peoples way. We will also air down our vehicles from there and take the short trip around the corner to demo. (We can’t have 40 vehicles show up to the air down area at once and clog it up) Please respond going if you truly are attending so we know who to expect.
What will you learn?
-GEAR what gear is required, also what’s not required but good to have, and how to use it properly
-AIRING DOWN/UP How to air up and down your tires to the correct psi
-BEACH DRIVING general tips on how to navigate the sand safely and effectively
-SAFETY (self explanatory)
-RECOVERY PROCEDURES this is very important. How to get yourself out of the sand without destroying your vehicle or someone elses is not easy. Also how to fix the sand afterwords so someone else does not get stuck in the hole you created. As well as how to properly attach and use a tow strap or chain.
Here is the link to our gofundme page. We ask anyone coming to the driving class to give a donation of $25 if you can afford it. You can always give more or less. This is not mandatory. We don’t not charge for our classes. Donations are invaluable to keeping this club running and growing, keeping the website running, insurance etc. Anything you can help out with is greatly appreciated. Looking forward to what is going to be our biggest class yet by far.
