| So my wife and I took our friend out in the Commander yesterday. There's a gravel creek bed on the property that's about 40ft. wide and 2-3 miles long. The creek rarely has more than 12-15 inches of water in it at any given time. Our friend was riding comfortably in the bed, while my wife was riding shotty as I was driving. After a half hour or so putting upstream, I decided it was time to head back to the house. I wasn't trying to do anything amazing... It just HAPPENED! I'm in low gear, 4wd, cruising downstream in about 10 or so inches of water when I gunned it! The commander literally climbed up on top of the water and skimmed for about 50yds! The speedo said 29mph when it began skimming and the only reason I slowed down was because I could no longer see where I was going. The sun was in my eyes and the full hardcoat windshield didn't help visibility since it was covered in water beads. I'm kicking myself in the head because we left the digital recorder at the house, but rest assured this won't be the last of our creek skimming excursions and we'll post videos to prove it!! | |
