best way to practice backing up is to practice going around sharp corners.

once you can do that stuff, the rest is super easy.
and some people are naturally good at it, and some just suck no matter how much practice you give them. im mostly referring to women when i say that..... jk......

first time i backed a trailer up, i got it perfect. its not hard at all.

Noah, I'm planning on plowing up a few jumps and some turns around the perimeter of the moto track for the Raptor. Basically I'll have all but 1 acre of the property to do with as I please if we get it.

good price? well it depends on where you're looking, but we found the house and land for $189,000 just because it's out away from the city.

As for your trailer, it just takes practice man, and the longer the trailer the easier it is since it'll turn more slowly. I used to have an 8' trailer that would jack knife in heart beat, but when I worked in WY I had a monsterous trailer for my Snow Cat that had to be 20' long and it was easy as hell to back up and put exactly where I wanted it.

still trying this backing up thing with the trailer. i can get the trailer where i want it, but getting the truck there too is a different story.

and $189k is cheap for land. try that here in ca, and you get a 500sq ft shack on 1000ft of property........

brother got 10 acres and a house with multiple buildings (sheds, huge barn) for 100K

im good at backing up trailers. my little 8x8' trailer i backed into a 9' opening, around a corner first try.

just think about what to do in your head, so you know what its gonna do before you do it. thats how i do shit, visualize it, then just do it.

Just keep practicing man, you'll get it before long. Repetition is key with trailer maneuvering.

Nah, I had to sacrifice sleep to do that, I'm tired as hell today. I normally only have about 30 mins to mess with the internet every day. I made an exception in his case.
