Default Facing the HILL!

Do you guys have any great advice on how to climb a steep hill. How should I manuever through it? Just stand up, putting my weight towards the front? Is the key here momentom? Is it easier with sports than 4x4 utilities? What if i come upon a log halfway up the climb? What to do if I lost traction? I was too chicken to go up this one big hill that even grandpa could do it. im so embarressed.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

If and When you finally buy that quad you keep talking about take the class the dealer offers you. It would be a good thing.

Is the class free? I haven't went through the process of buying a quad. I asked my freind, but he said that all they did was talk about the safety things and ask questions such as "Do you have experience with clutches?"

i hate it wen u go up a steep hill and u hit a tree stump or sumthing and it popps u up and it feels like ur gunna fall backwards but ir not. all u gotta do is have the guts and just do it. if u hit sumthing and pop up, i would suggest leaning forward even more. if it looks dangerous..... its fun, lol. Hey! thats a cool quote. IF IT LOOKS DANGEROUS.... ITS PROBABLY FUN AS HELL! i like it.
