Video Transcript for Maxtrax MKII Recovery Boards Review

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at these MAXTRAX MKII Recovery Boards. Now these two turquoise recovery boards are going to provide traction when your tires are bogged down in snow, slush, sand, or mud, and the rows of the traction teeth are going to provide a surface that your tires can grip onto. Now, what's nice about these boards is they do nest together when you're ready to store them. So lemme give you a brief demonstration of that, and give you a closeup view of the front there. So as you can see, they're not going to take up a whole lot of space when you have them nested together so you're not gonna have to worry about, you know, storage space or anything like that because of that ability to nest together, stack on top of one another.

Now talking about the size of these boards, let me give you some overall measurements just so you have a good idea of how long and wide these are. So lining these back up for you, measuring end to end, the overall length is about 45 inches long. The overall width is about 13 inches wide. And then the overall height from top to bottom, we're about three inches tall. The UV-stabilized, fiber-reinforced nylon construction is gonna make these boards lightweight, yet very strong.

They're actually gonna be light enough to easily haul in and out of your vehicle. Each board weighs about 7 1/2 pounds, but they're gonna be heavy-duty enough to bear the full weight of your vehicle without braking. Another closeup I wanted to show you that at each end of these boards is a shovel that's going to allow you to remove excess earth to help you get unstuck quicker. So each of those boards have that, each of these boards have that shovel function at either end so that's a nice addition. And then going back overhead here, I wanted to show you that each of these boards have handles, three on each side, and that's gonna help you not only easily transport this, but also help you to easily retrieve it when you're ready to remove them after getting your vehicle unstuck.

And then also, two leashes are included. I have these bundled up, but you are going to receive two leashes, and these are gonna be handy for securing to your board in case you're in terrain that you know these could get easily buried after getting your vehicle unstuck. So you can secure your leash on the board and then easily retrieve the board when you're done there, They're, of course, a bright orange color so they're gonna be easily visible. And then we do have these keyhole accessory points that's going to allow you to securely mount these boards. Now these do have a lifetime warranty, and as you can see, these are in a really nice turquoise color, but we do have other color options available for you.

So if turquoise isn't necessarily the color that you're looking for, be sure to check out the other options that we have here at etrailer.com. Well, that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
