    I've already got a set of TREDS and haven't used them yet. If I didn't have them I would have considered these but only AFTER I have physically seen them first.
    Was impressed with the strength when used as ramps.
    Cheers

    I thought I've seen that stuff before..... we used it as non slip flooring inside the workshop and as walkway/gangway on top of tanker trailers.

    When will this gouging of fools stop?

    Regards

    They used these things ,on the Camel trophy. I'm sure of it. THey were hanging off each Defender. And were yellow too from memory ...

    Edit. Sorry they were similar. But I remember them using them as bridges as well...

    Those things in Post #1 have been around for, like, forever in England and Europe.

    Most common slang name I have heard is "waffle boards" and are essentially the lighter modern version of PSP in the piccy above.
    Used to have to make hardstands out of that shit when I was a lad

    Waffle Boards don't have anything like the traction of a Max Trax in Sand/Mud but are much better at handling bridging loads when suspended, so kinda two seperate uses really IE a bit like comparing a winch to a snatch strap
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    OK. So maybe instead of 4 Max Trax you can go two of each and have a more versatile system? Then again, if you stack the Max Trax you should be able to use them for bridging as well.
