In Nor Cal like on the Rubicon, it is ALWAYS "driver" and "passenger" if you are a spotter, as opposed to "left" and "right".

Any spotter saying left and right is immediately identifying themselves as a someone is that is not a local, does not really know wheeling, or they are a flatlander.

never got that that was a location thing.

People who KNOW how to spot, as well as those who KNOW how to listen to a spotter, use D or P.

Its too easy to say "left", when you mean right, because you are looking at the vehicle.

Same here. Was funny to watch spotter telling a fellow in a rhd toyota driver / passenger meaning left and right. Fellow driving was all sorts of messed up.

Humping Rocks is where you're kind of just trying the same line and skating your front end around with the steering trying to see if you can catch some lucky traction somewhere, since it's usually accompanied with the truck gaining and losing traction in a bit of a back and forth motion making it look like your truck is doggystyling the rocks it's on.

Is there any fun specific term for a group of nearly identically built JKs on 37s humping the same obstacle for 4 hours on the same line, thereby making your entire trail day about 1.5 trails instead of the 6+ you could have easily covered if you didn't have to sit around watching the stupidity?

Here we tell the spotters to GTFO since they are likely to get hit when we bounce up obstacles.
Also we make fun of people who need spotters.


Turtled is when you're high centered on an obstacle with all 4 wheels spinning and going nowhere. As in:

Humping rocks is a good way to launch driveshafts into orbit.

Say driver or passenger when spotting. If my buddy and I are being silly gooses I'll say "Trolley right/left". He'd ignore me cause even I dont know which direction I want him to go.

Yeah, that's definitely a good one.
