While a Rock Crawler may be created by modifying a factory vehicle, the Rock Bouncer is made of hardened steel bars that have been bent to very specific, and exact angles using a mandrel technique to provide rigidity, exceptional strength, internal parts protection, appearance, and, of course, driver safety.Įach Rock Bouncer is custom made. The sport is all about speed with bouncers going flat out over the most extreme obstacles with little to no regard for machine (or driver).Īccording to Autowise, “ A Rock Bouncer is a Rock Crawler that has been custom-built to do what a Rock Crawler does, but in a much more aggressive manner.” While Rock Crawling is not for everyone, Rock Bouncing is even more exclusive.

Large gear reductions in the vehicles drivetrain and high torque allow the crawlers to drive up, down, and across obstacles that would appear insurmountable. Rock Crawling requires careful and precise driving, at a pace so slow it almost seems like the crawler is moving in slow motion. They are driven on mountain trails, foothills, and over boulders and rock piles. It is an extreme form of off-road driving using four-wheel-drive vehicles such as Jeeps, trucks, and 'buggies' that have been highly modified to overcome obstacles. These features provide more than enough capability to slosh through a shallow mud puddle, negotiate minor ruts and crevasses, and climb over rocks the driver of a VW would never think of attempting.īut a select few off-roaders look for a bit more, a vehicle specifically designed to handle the most difficult terrain and adverse conditions.
