Recovery Class - By Zachary Carlson
Since 2013 I have been involved in offroad driving and been in need of recovery more times than I care to admit.
I have attended both Factor 55 and Survive offroad recovery classes as well as running an offroad recovery group in some of the harshest terrain in southern California's desert.
I have worked recovery at some of the most challenging offroad races in the world, ultra 4's King of the Hammers as well as other Uktra 4 and desert races.
Additionally, having the right gear is the most important part for both safety and functionality. Luckily I am partners with some of the biggest names in the industry like Factor 55, Crawler offroad, and Custom Splice.
I look forward to teaching everyone both basic and advanced recovery for both themselves and others.
