HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

FRIDAY AFTERNOON you arrive and finish the paperwork. That night, we’ll have an introductory workshop covering the basics of 4x4 driving and recovery, followed by a Q&A session. Then we braai (obviously!)

SATURDAY will see five different workshops. WORKSHOP 1: HIGH-LIFT AND AIR-LIFT JACKS When you’re done with this workshop you’ll know just about everything about jacks – how to use them, what to watch out for and what to keep in mind when you buy one. WORKSHOP 2: KINETIC RECOVERIES Recoveries with a kinetic rope are dangerous if you don’t do them right. But sometimes they’re the only option. That’s why it’s important that our qualified instructors show you how to do a kinetic recovery correctly, safely and as easily as possible under the circumstances you face. After this workshop you’ll be able to do a kinetic recovery with confidence. WORKSHOP 3: WINCHES A winch is another handy piece of equipment that needs to be used with great care, otherwise people, vehicles or both could get hurt. Our instructors will show you how to do it right. WORKSHOP 4: NAVIGATION AND RADIO PROCEDURE After this workshop you’ll be a beter navigator and know how to use a twoway radio correctly on tour or in convoy. WORKSHOP 5: TYRES If you think all tyres are the same, just wait until you hear what the legendary Johann “Tyre” Viljoen has to teach you in this workshop.
