Let me preface this buy saying everyone is ok. We had a really bad Roll today on Lockwood. Joe Stocker lost his breaks and took a nasty spill, got thrown out of his jeep, and jack Branch held on for the ride... rolling about ten times down a steep hill. Point mugu club helped out greatly taking Joe and Jack out of the trail, and the rest of us recovered his Totaled jeep.
Joe had a surgery on his hand today and will need another tomorrow. He also has some broken ribs. Jack got beat up but is ok.

Posted: May 15th, 2011, 8:38 pmNo seatbelts?
I'm glad that Joe and Jack will wheel another day. We seem to be having a lot of rollovers and the trails these days.
Not to sound too morbid or disrespectful Jeremy, but do you have any pics of the wrecked jeep? Any details about after-market roll cage or just the stock one? Where seatbelts used or did they fail? Just trying to accumulate some real-world data and what safety equipment works in worse-case scenarios like this. I thought I remembered Joe having a white CJ with a home-made cage.
Once again, best wishes to Joe and Jack.

Posted: May 16th, 2011, 5:41 amThe roll cage held up well, all things considered. It was tweaked a bit, but completely intact. it was a home built cage on his jeep. I am not sure about seatbelts, I can only speculate. I will try to post pics on our TB website in a day or two.
