What is recommended to start off on gravel or road? [/quote]
I’d do the road, the gravel might make your feet slip a lot.

Had my 1st bout of prowler flu today after doing ‘the hell that is New Jersey’ workout. 1st time in a long time i have been brought to that

Where’d you got one that cheap?

looks like he made it himself, I was planning on doing it, I had all the specs but just the metal would have cost me like 200 or so and I couldn’t even find 2" square tubing.

OK wow nice work; Im not that handy in the metal shop

Fuck!!! This makes me want access to a prowler again! Hill sprints are ok but the prowler was the devil.

It was such a love/hate. I miss it :frowning:

I tried having one made, was at least $300, where did you get that quote? what a deal!

Brother made it at his place of work from scrap metal. It didn’t cost me any cash, just a bottle of Oxy Elite pro fat burner to make, and a case of beer to get powder coated

Goofy question…

How much noise does it make on pavement?

My wife is afraid I’ll bring the HOA down on us cause it’s too loud scraping on the ground.

My thoughts were that the loudest part would be the ensuing vomitting.

All the vids I watch didn’t sound loud at all.

Thoughts?

Hahahaha, oddball for sure.

If there is anything the HOA thread in the ‘Get A Life’ section taught me, it is that the HOA will get you for anything at any point in time for any reason. So have fun!

I would find this a little hard to believe if I hadn’t already done both. A prowler unloaded on grass is quite a bit harder than a half ton pickup. Throw 50lbs on the prowler and it’s not even close.

Been there, pushed that.

Grass was wet, which helped ease the pain a bit.

Oh and it’s not loud on the pavement, the only issue I would see and HOA having with it is that it “scuffs” the pavement, not so much a scratching/destroying anything effect.

Edit: Having weight on it while trying to push it up a wet grassy hill made it too tough to get any traction.

Last one. Don’t mean to whore it out, but I love making videos of Prowler sessions
