Title: Flop club
Post by: Krawler00 on August 06, 2010, 01:59:18 PM
Who here has flopped and what if anything was damaged? I think I might issue a sticker for those who have. Just GATR guys. Might be fun to have it on the Jeep.

I flopped on escalator out in Moab this year. No damage other than a scratch on the roll bar.

I flopped a Bronco II. Lost a door, fender, windshield, and rear glass.

That sounds more like a slap ;D

Ben, if you make a sticker I'll flop mine just to get one.................................not.

Just messed up my headlight surround, fender, and a little spot on my roof.

Ben,

I'm not sure leaning on some rocks and backing off counts as a flop.   {boohoo}  I was in a similar attitude at MM a couple of weeks ago trying the "hard entry" onto Gauntlet.  Likewise had to back out.  My passenger (low side) seemed a little nervous at the time.

Does this count for Scott (owner of SBC) to join the flop club?   ;D

Feels like a flop when you're in it, but the terrain allowed us to get off the flop, but we couldn't get out of the hole.  Mine surely doesn't qualify, but it sure did scratch up the fenders, but they protected the body.

Billy flopped, but the he was able to pull out too.  Wicked flex!

Not sure if this really counts, but at least it's Tellico. Fell SUDDENLY into "V Notch". Thought it was gonna be bad, but no damage.

And then there's this one. Will was driving so I guess if it count's, Will gets another one.

And before you give Will too much crap Ben. Remember this one.

I don't think you can count Scott. Doesn't he roll or flop every trip?  ;D

Throw us some sticker designs Ben! Sounds cool

Somebody's gotta make things interesting    ::)   {nln}

Probably could have pulled out of the first one, but she cut off on me. The 2nd one is just stupid. lol. No damage from either other than some light clear coat scratches which you can't see. If my Jeep were any other color it would look so scratched up.

 I blame it on the weight from the hard top.  ;) 

I also need to put some sway bars under this thing sometime.
