Up and Nearly Over

[mattcogdell]

I enjoy catching up on some youtube videos at times and seeing other parts of the country people are off-roading at. I found this 4LOW BC channel this evening. In this video at the 8:50 point, would the buggy have not nearly flopped over if it had more up travel?

Seems as if this buggy has 14-16” travel struts but maybe 4-5” of up travel.

It does flop at 10:28 for those with short attention spans......

Yeah. It appears to be in the same manner. Do you think that’s the rear shoving it over since it has no travel left?

I've only watched the two points mentioned in the video, but it seems like he doesn't seem to have much travel, up or down, for a buggy. Flipping over I think could have been avoided regardless with better line choice and going slower. I think he would need a LOT of rear flex to keep from tipping on that rock, particularly with how fast he came off the tree.
