Thread: Maxtrax / recovery boards

Anyone tried these?

Can see a lot of uses when on your own, bit redundant with another vehicle.

Reason for asking is I was out last week and got stuck.... Had to dig out the land anchor and do a decent winch wih pulley, all I needed was a bit more traction to get over a muddy spot.

Reading up on them this evening, the spikes on maxtrax wear off quickly if spinning tyres and aren't designed to be used as a bridge. Thinking back, a small section of bridge / timber would be handy in places
