The folding ones seem legit for the size and the fact that the fold makes allows them to fit better where there might be little to no ground clearance. Great video I found this very helpful!

In Australia, everybody carries Maxtrax in their vehicle. You just have to. The distance between towns is so huge. Drinking water, 2 cans of guzzolene and Maxtrax. Difference between life and lonely death.

i used my Maxsa's for the first time yesterday to get through some nasty stuff, and they worked very well. my buddy spun his tires on them so much that i smelled the plastic and it only barely wore down 1-2 of the small nubs on the end of the board. Definitely worth getting for the price as long as you dont mind the weight, length, and lack of stacking ability. The maxsas do come with velcro to strap them together tho.

Great video bud! I have a bad habit of getting buried in the sticky stuff when I'm by myself and recently came across those Maxsa boards on Amazon, I'm definitely pulling the trigger on 'em now! They're $139 for the pair plus there's a instant $10 off coupon! Thanks again for the video! 🤙🤙🤙

Thanks. Great review. I spend most my time in snow and ice and most my effort goes into helping other get out. Looks like either would do the job. Day in the mud earned a sub.

Great video and nice demonstration. I've had my eye on the MAXSA's for a while, but hesitant to purchase given how inexpensive they are to the MAXTRAX. This video has sold me on the Maxsas. As half the price of maxtraxx, I can't see why anyone would choose differently. Thanks!

Kyle H Because they are still working as intended four years later. Let’s see how they go with the full flex test which should simulate a bridge. Buy cheap and pay again in my experience. Tried the cheaper options and they are ok for a couple of trips in the Aussie bush and then they are toast. Aussie design which is a bonus..👍🇦🇺

Imagine if they made a traction board with the inverse of a specific tire brand pattern so it would "theoretically" grip better.

@danconatser8699

Great comparison. Conclusion-- that all these boards are just molded plastic and no way to justify paying 3-4x the price for same function. But yes, I have seen people "brag" about their purchase of the MaxTracs, which cost them same as a budget winch... And yes, I bought the $100 versions that are bright orange, so that I could find them in the mud. Plus it is the experience of the driver that is key too. Spinning your tires on traction boards is not so useful. Thanks for the great video.

Net/net, any board is better than no board and most available options do a good job. I use Maxtrax, but I'm certain any option would be welcome when stuck.

The ones with the less flex offer a better ramp than those that flex and not as you state. The ones that flex will be steeper!
@marceld6061
@marceld6061 5 жыл бұрын
@fukthegoog , PortugalCarp is correct. When the board is angled up the slope and it flexes down (as it does when it sinks into the hole created by the spinning tire), the resulting slope (the board ahead of the wheel) will be a steeper angle than the one you started with. Flexible boards to have an advantage and that is that they are less prone to break when bridging a gap.

I disagree with what did or did not do well. The Maxsas were clearly more affective in that situation. Yes, they all worked. However, it was clear(should have been to everyone)that the Maxsas bent and elevated the vehicle to a more level plateau giving the vehicle an easier time driving out. Less slipping. I personally don't have any kind of boards. But IF I were to buy based of this review, the Maxsas would win for functionality and storage. Compact and very affective.. who would want the opposite?
