Nice!

I was there for about an hour and saw all 4 lines done. The far right is a 2 door line, most 4 doors took the notch. After watching, all of them have very small windows for deviation - hit it right you’ll walk up. Miss by 3 inches and you’re resetting. Learned a lot.

Witnessed a stock 2 door JL sport with horrendous side steps bang up the notch after about 10 tries!

Huh, far right was ultimately the line that worked for me in my 4-door.

After very easily walking up the wall, I jumped into n Lake Como, three times. Its cold. Exhilarating!

I thought the wall would be more difficult, it was an easy crawl up the left side. I got to see someone mess up the bumper on his Lexus, his wife was not happy. 🫢

That’s impressive. I saw 0 4 doors make it on that side.

What I imagine they were doing wrong, and what I was doing wrong initially on that right-side line, was not going ALL THE WAY right. Then you high-center hard unless you're at least on 37s with a big lift. I made it going up the right by going extreme right, where there's almost a second mini v-notch at the top, straddling that, driving the passenger front tire almost into that bush/tree, and then cutting back driver at the last second. It was spicy.

That's a great description, it's exactly what I did in that video. I basically aimed for the shrubbery all of the way to the right. I watched several struggle because it looks harmless - saw what finally worked for them and lucked out the first time. Once I looked down from the top I understood - the top is nasty on that side and 2 doors had a huge advantage on the high center.
