I've never been dune riding, but Im assuming the bike's at fault for not knowing whats over the top of the hill? But the Zilla also shouldn't have been parked there?

He took it better than I prob. would have.... good thing they were maier plastics and not OEM!! glad they re both ok though!

Fault aside, they are both lucky.

I'd say that dude on the bike crapped himself

Dunes=too dangerous for me.

WHEW* I flinched watching that!

GNARLY. Man that happened so quick. I will remember that video forever... Yeah I flinched phuckin A!

That right there is why you try and not to go down where everybody is coming up !

Wow, look at all the dorks with Go-Pro cameras on their helmets.

Kyle...if you ever want to ride some dunes where it's not dangerously crowded, I've got a spot for you.
In fact, you could literally be the only one there if you wanted, and every track you see would be your own.
Riding without having to worry about other people is a lot more fun.

Wow, now thats scary.

That dude is lucky to walk away from that one.

Guy on the zilla is a dumbass for turning around.

WestTexasKing · « **Reply #11 on:** June 03, 2013, 03:45:23 pm »

There's no safe way to climb and descent that hill in an orderly fashion, because people just do whatever the hell they want.
Hence, head-on collisions.
Reminds me of the video that was posted not too long ago where a sandrail collided with a quad in the EXACT same manner.
You can only be as safe as the most dangerous idiot in the dunes.

Dezsled · « **Reply #12 on:** June 03, 2013, 04:59:56 pm »

A 'spotter' would have been cool. That and you don't want to park in the impact zone like where the camera man was

Zilla273 · « **Reply #13 on:** June 03, 2013, 07:09:18 pm »

wow that's crazy!! I would imagine this happens at the dunes a lot, atleast the mans walkin $:-\$

Maxxh2o · « **Reply #14 on:** June 03, 2013, 08:07:14 pm »

Blind sides suck, especially on a bike that can get big air. Bet he was pulling his seat cover out of his sphincter. Exactly why the big buggies have spotters and radios.

I'd definitely say he bears more responsibility than the bike, he turned around and headed down the middle of the valley where traffic is coming up. He should have crossed over and went down the side with the rest of the traffic.

Darwinism at work here....

Dezsled · « **Reply #16 on:** June 04, 2013, 12:16:34 am »

Definitely a failure to assess the danger he put himself into

GrkGuy · « **Reply #17 on:** June 04, 2013, 04:59:18 am »

i guess this is why silver lake has one way hills.

but shouldnt he have seen his flag also.

JayTater · « **Reply #18 on:** June 04, 2013, 06:27:59 am »

That guy = not eligible for the crown.

Rider414 · « **Reply #19 on:** June 04, 2013, 07:19:39 pm »

For sure the risk of having bi-directional traffic on a hill.

Stpltn250r · « **Reply #20 on:** June 04, 2013, 09:12:46 pm »

I'm gonna go ahead and point out the obvious you don't travel the wrong way on a one way road. drivers ed 101 or basic common sense. than for him to camp out and frankly thinking he safe to be sitting in the exact area he HIMSELF just came up?? That dude us a freaking idiot.

QuadMan8 · « **Reply #21 on:** June 04, 2013, 09:19:12 pm »

Thats the good thing about out huge dunes in utah ( little sahara by delta Utah) there are not many people out there. If you go mid week you might only see 4-15 people all day. Easter is packed of course.

SL limits the amount of morons a day, it's only 450 acres. The zones are layed out to head east or west depending on your section.
