I have used the tow bar to recover vehicles ... 🙆🏻♂️. Thank you very much mate. Now you have aducated me on a safe way to do it. 🙏🙏
This bathroom break has lead me to hands down the best tutorial video of anything on youtube. Bravo.
Wow, thanks! Glad you liked it mate - we had a lot of fun putting it together! Cheers Brenno
Lol . The toilet media room. I learn a lot while on the throne.😂
Killer video man, thank you for making this! Wife and I just got our first 4WD beach vehicle and we plan to take it all over the coast to surf spots. Already knew some of the basics, but this video really helped fill in the gaps of knowledge needed to safely drive on the beach. Thanks legend! 🤙🏽
Next time you are bogged in the sand like you showed on the beach if you have a bucket get water from the ocean pore it on your tyre tracks and walk along them to compact them don’t forget the sand next to your tyres it doesn’t take much water then just drive out .simple. You don’t need to let your tyres down and you will not need to be pulled out. All you need is access to water .
Once you have compacted the tyre tracks you don’t need 4d4 so long as you don’t spin your tyres it doesn’t matter how dry or deep the sand you don’t need as much water as you thing then just walk up and down your tracks . Try it
Another valuable tip is when going down a steep dune trying to go slow and your truck starts to get sideways do to limiting your speed is to give it some gas scary or not and your truck will get straight. Fighting it getting sideways limiting your speed will get worse and you will roll your truck in the sand sideways on the steep sand. To make it up dunes you need to start up the dune with speed and floor it. With lockers your tires aired down some and a good engine that pushes you into the seat hitting the gas you might make it. When you are reaching the top do not let off the gas peddle or you will almost make it or high center on a sharp peak. Keeping some speed up and not stopping where you are not facing a downward direction is the best. Starting from a stop on a uphill direction is rolling the dice. Don't go for any steeper stuff until you know what your truck can do and get some experience. Sand can surprise you quick and harshly.
Great vid! All beginners should watch this, it was very well presented. I've seen my fair share of mistakes out there including not locking the centre diff (overheated). I wish it was around when I owned my MK SWB SD33T Patrol (in late 90s). Well done.
video deserves more than 5.6k likes, given over 87K are subs and has had over 1/2 million views. Fantastic advice. Thank you.
This is by far the most knowledgeable video I have ever watched on youtube
Thanks
Great info mate...! It’s surprising how many people are embarrassed to ask for input or help. Thanks for making the video.
Thank you so much. I've always wanted to drive on my local beach, but never had a vehicle to do so. Now that I do, this is a big help as a starter. I'm still going to be going with someone who is much more experienced first, but this was such a big help. Thank you again!
Hi Brenno looks like you and 4WD Supercentre should get it own TV show. would be like the old days when the shows used to teach people good stuff, after over 50 years of 4WDing I like to help young ones onto the right path and you are doing a good job here mate.
I have had all number of 4WD vehicles over the years all the good ones, I am now 75 and have downsize to a 2012 Nissan X Trail 4WD it is a great little vehicle, not many sensible places it won't go, have set up a dual battery behind drivers seat all with Super Centre gear, and we are back into camping.
I have never been a fan of letting tires down to much and have never been bogged due to sensible driving and looking before you commit no matter what the track.
Everything you said was great info for young beginners and all those rich people with LANDROVER and Autobahn tires who think they can do Fraser :-)
Just one really good tip you missed was keep your thumbs out on the rim of the wheel when driving avoids possible breakages to them.
Also if your bogged at the back wheels and have no diff lock a small amount of handbrake will get you out most times even two wheel drive ute on a muddy building site
Old bloke over and out.
Just had my first bad sand experience today. Was not prepared at all. Thankfully some good samaritans helped me out big time. Definitely coming prepared next time thanks to their tips and this video.
Thanks mate, some handy tips.
Got way more of what I was looking for. Great video mate.
Thank you great vid
Probably the most Australian video I've seen on youtube. Absolute legend!
lacking Fosters beer ......other then that, spot on.
Well then you must not have seen the vid of the guy punching a kangaroo that had grabbed his dog lol
How? 😂
The most important tip for beach driving is to have absolutely no shame when you get bogged at Inskip
Or have absolutely no air and never get stuck
@@johnmadsen37 nothing like the trusty 4psi
are you two for real perhaps you need some skill lessons? next time you are bogged watch an old time fisherman drive past you ?
@@alanhoult3613 just gotta drive it enough to learn those old fisherman probably got bogged in there youth there
Its all a myth, full tyre psi, red lining throttle, sideways down the dunes just like a surfer shooting the curl. Guaranteed to produce a memorable 4x4 adventure.
Awesome vid mate. Very helpful for a beginner like myself. Cheers!
This was really helpfull. I just bought my first 4WD. Very good made video. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great video, thanks for posting
Great vid. I was looking for something like this for a while. Awesome retail, awesome video!
Simple and practical tips
Thank you man
Thanks a million times.
Great info video. The only thing that I would add is, for very low power vehicles like my 86 kw io pajero, 4wd low range is always a must in power sucking soft sand and always select a low gear and keep it in the torque band
things i have learnt from doing remote beaches is burring a wheel in the sand will make a winch point and if you winch dies, you can taking turns over your wheel with a snatch/tow rope will work too
Traction boards are also a good item to have on the sand. I bought a pair and just two days later I was using them to help a young family that was stuck, worked great!
Very relaxed presentation! Got my like!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Straight up, straight down, never sideways. I remember learning that on "The Fall Guy"! Great video, thank you!
Good call mate, that's excellent advice! cheers, Brenno
Love seeing Brenno back behind the camera
*in front ;p
Great vid Brenno !
Awesome vid guys, thanks for the info
Good tips & advice! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Amazing video mate. I’m getting ready to do some beach camping and I don’t have a lot of sand driving experience under my belt. This is gonna help a bunch.
Have fun!- Ashleigh
Great video thanks
Never drive below the high tide line
Enjoy the beach with your feet
You'll be returning home in your unbroken car, simple rule
What great advice, thank you 👍🏼
good clip,hope people take notice
Excellent thanks
Legends! Love that at the end! You’re the man!
Cheers Ian, stoked you enjoyed it mate! Thanks, Brenno
Excellente mi amigo.
Muchas gracias
Muy bueno.
Loved it... for a novice it was such good info.... great video
Glad you liked it!!
Great video guys
Great Video and Presenter. Very helpful. Why are there dislikes? Must be the keyboard Warriors who don't have a licence yet or can't afford a car?
Thanks for the vid mate I got savagely bogged on the beach first weekend of having my 4x4 with a rising tide very lucky someone came along and I have a winch but I have to get back on the horse and I’ll go get the snatch strap 👍
Best video with all tips
Great tips, just brought a triton so I need all the tips.
Rock on!
Great informative video. Thank you from California.
Glad it was helpful!
7:49 that hand brake sound when you are stuck,priceless
haha

Crazy how much the sand changes location to location or even season to season. I live in the north west USA and used to do beach recoveries for fun in a stock silverado. It was easy, 4hi and dont think we had a front locker. No digging or anything just hook up and pull. It was hard to even get that truck to bog down in 2wd. Drove my lowered open diff rwd bmw out a few times and only got stuck once, got out without help. Driver was the difference, my buddies in awd SUVs needed help.
Simply Splendid Thank You !! 🎩
Awesome idea! One that we all should remember for that one time when we are out in the desert sands.
Excellent!
Great clip.Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
100% correct excellent video
Thanks legend!
Wow! Not a Maxtrak in sight!
Great information and techniques. I would suggest to anyone interested in driving on the Beach that they must watch this video first before going.
We agree!
Nice one mate. Thank for taking the time out for this. Good point about rated recovery points. I've been using the hook under my 4x4 bumper for recovery
I did that. It turned out it was some wheel rod that looked like a hook. I’m glad it wasn’t my car and the guy wasn’t around. He wasn’t stuck either. I just wanted to pull something. The car didn’t move but that rod came off.
@@johnmadsen37 🤣
great vide mate ! Thank you
No problem 👍
Don't forget your Truck Claws that you can put on your tires and it'll practically get you out of everywhere. Good stuff thanks for posting. I'm in Arizona and we do have sand dirt and rocks here LOL Merry Christmas to all and to all a good-night
Tip if stopping on beach reverse up about 10ft itll make taking off easier if beach soft
Excellent point mate! Cheers for watching. Brenno
Fantastic vid... new sub
this was an amazing video. Let me try the tips on the beach of India with my 4x4
Much appreciated
Informative Tips
Great vid, my first time out as a kid in my new 1989 wrangler,i sunk right down,didnt know i was suppose to deflate! Than ,on the beach in a suzuki SJ-410 so lite i didnt have to deflate. Im gonna assume that the pass on the left is a UK thing, here in thr states ,we keep to thr right.Great vid
great video
Really informative
I am in GCC country now and seeing the most of people using the wrong way to tow the vehicles in Dunes
Most people use the wrong way. You just haven't been off-roading in other places.
Bloody Nice video 🤙👍
thx bro clearly explained
You're welcome
Thanks good info
Glad it was helpful! Cheers, Kathryn
Max Trax would be handy to have too.
straight forward, simple and informative ... love it!
Mate where’s the Max tracks! That’s a must have in every 4WD !
8:38
Great vid, thanks I do have a question about snorkels do you rate them for beach driving I notice you are not using one in your vid? I am not sure if I need one if I have know intention of getting my car in that deep water but I do want to get down the beach every Chang. I get
Yeah, I've been everywhere, man, I've been everywhere. Every campfire when there's a bunch of 4WD people, there's always one, they've been on every track in every place, everywhere and they went there before you did, etc. etc. etc.
Nice info
Great ideas
Thanks for watching mate! Brenno
Good seeing Brenno on screen again! With personalities like Brenno onboard...4wd Supacentre should have its own touring team and series oneday..? 🤔..😎👊
The best piece of advice here is confidence in the man's voice... what's the worst thing that could happen ! wait for hours before someone more knowledgeable shows up. No shame in bogging. Shame in not trying enough for the fear of bogging. !
4hi doesn't work for every single 4x4 as not all 4bes have the same gearing ratios or tyre sizes, power etc these all make a difference. In low powered 4x4s low range works so much better
His talking bout averages mate. 👍
How important is it to have your underside car protected from sand? Or is a simple wash with hose under carriage good enough? Appreciate any tips
Awesome video, what beach is this on and what state? I know some beaches north and south of Perth it's risky driving close to the water as it's just way to soft
It looks like my home beach Redhead beach (Newcastle) NSW.
What wheel package are you running? I like them alot.
Got to buy all this gear.....🤣
the best part was the solid hand brake pull when she was already bogged n not going anywhere.
It becomes a habit.
Don't suppose you have a list of all the free beaches available to drive on in NSW?
The vehicle pulling you should be offset to either side to give you a little added safety. The strap will thank you! Doing a straight pull is hard on your strap!
I drive 18psi at my beach and just cruise in 4 low
Often wondered about leaving the gearbox in drive vs manually selecting the gear, which is better for the longevity of the transmission when travelling on soft sand?
I can only speak for my old 4 gear automatic Prado. I NEVER drive on the beach in 'D'. Always in 2nd, with just occasionally knocking it into 3rd at dead low tide and the beach wide and flat like a motorway.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with manually selecting an appropriate gear in an automatic gearbox and just leaving it there. It's exactly why the function is there, to be used.
I park at beach access roads in Texas. Put out a surf rod and wait for rich folks to get stuck. I pull them out and never ask for anything in return. 9 times out of ten they'll want to give you something....... My favorites are the Cadillac Escalades' and the huge desil 4x4's. It's a GREAT way to spend the day. I love tha Salt Life.........
good to know cheers mate
Brought me a Thmuper and Kwiki Tyre deflator. Lesssgggo
Never will I get bogged to my chassis rails thanks for the video!
Any time!
One of your best tip vid so far...Are you sure they were proper recovery points and not tow hooks...🤔...
Not even tow hooks. Just tie down points.
Great informative video. Everything except calling ya mate Champ 🤐
good your dmax ?
Welcome to Lapland - everyday doing
Nice ADD.
Tasmania needs a 4WD Super centre
What was Tassie like ?
I learnt to park at the high tide line
And never drive on a beach
60km walk back to town overnight after snapping an axle .. taught me that I have more endurance than my dog did, I rescued the vehicle
Camping is fun ...beach driving isnt camping
