If At First You Don’t Succeed Hammer Down Again: Ride Along In This Rock Bouncer And Claw Your Way To The Top!

Alex Sanders is the driver here and we’re all riding shotgun in his rig known as Ribcage. If you cannot figured out why it carries that name you’ve got some bigger problems in your life. Rather than an LS engine or a big block, this thing uses a tough as nails small block Chevy for power and as you will see, the only thing tougher than the bouncer itself is Sanders the pilot.

All racing and automotive competition requires tenacity. Whether it is the guts to drive a stock car or Indy car hard into a corner at full throttle or its the willingness to stand on the gas in an 11,000hp funny car, these things are all hard to do and to do well. In the case of rock bouncing like we are going to see here, its the idea that the hill is not going to beat you, no matter how hard it tries. Sanders is a veteran of this type of competition and as you will see, he adjusts his approach, his aggressiveness, and his steering inputs each time he nearly makes it up what seems to be about a vertical face before he succeeds.

The payoff here is not just making it up the hill it is seeing the whole course. Coming down is about as freaking as going up! Rock Bouncing continues to be immensely popular and after watching this, we know why. The machines themselves are bad ass, the stuff they are doing seems impossible, and guys like Sanders put on one hell of a show.
