:scared-eek:          Thought for sure this was going to be a demonstration of how well the ROP bars held up.

It's all fun & games until you exceed the side tilt limit...

That video has it all - loss of steering control, loss of traction, and torture testing the pressurized lubrication system.

Probably better to hit that area with weed killer...

@ri702bill  @T-MoAGREE ON THAT  !  done a lot of  brush  clearing with tractors , could personally feel the danger zone  in that angle , basically it was his speed that made it scary . would also  have weed killed it , minimizing  bulk ,  pete

Certainly pucker stuff!

That ground is pretty common here in Greene Co. Pa. The farm boys here can make you nervous in these hey fields.

I have frontage that is about the same and I have just about 40' of it that I can't mow. I slide to the ditch.

There is a lot to learned for the vid. The best tip is keeping your front end higher then the rear wheels, very important. Notice when he is coming back around the tree and the front dips down how the machine starts to slide. 

The duals are a big help and he is working those turning brakes like a real pro. Lifts that brush hog just at the right time too! 

Wondering if he has filled tires?

Good vid 

I probably would fill better in a smaller machine tho! 

But those days are over I would pass, lol.
