Easter Jeep Safari 2019 Recap

How was EJS 2019? Easter Jeep Safari was more fun than ever this year. Sometimes knowing what lies ahead on your trip can dampen the excitement, but definitely not when you’re headed to Moab, one of the premier adventure destinations in the United States. The abundance of other enthusiast in the area makes for a great social setting of people rocking it outdoors. Shock Surplus’ trip to Moab included challenging trail runs, incredible views, natural wonders, and gorgeous drives through the local national parks - there’s an unlimited amount of gems and thousands of miles of trails to explore around...

SEMA 2018, The Aftermarket King

SEMA 2018 was as wild as ever, the aftermarket industry is thriving so much that the convention hall has expanded out to 4 gigantic tents next to South Hall! All around the convention were free rides, whether in Boss'd out Mustangs, Ford Raptors, Bimmers, or Corvettes, drifting seemed to be the flavor of the week. The lines for rides were almost as big as the lines to watch the Hoonigans shred tires. Over the past couple years 'Overlanding' has caught fire in the offroad world, and it seemed every other vehicle in the 4x4 hall had a rig equipped with...

Overland Expo Without a Plan

Arriving to Fort Tuthill on a Friday afternoon with some sort of expectation to get a campsite around the Expo was laughably ignorant on my part. I severely underestimated the growth and community enthusiasm behind Overlanding. I also partly expected this, and in the end, glad I looked elsewhere. The Expo has grown tremendously over its short life, this year eclipsing even last year’s attendance and size. The Expo’s camp area was bursting at the seams, with scant space between vehicles fit into the dense forest of the Flagstaff area and the Fort Tuthill Campground. Rooftop Tent Everything It seemed...

7th Annual Whittier Area Classic Car Show 2018

On February 25, 2012 the Whittier Area Classic Car Show was born. Still going strong 7 years later, this car show features automobiles from 1976 and older, foreign and domestic. We decided to check it out this year and boy was it worth the drive. Hundreds of flawless cars were on showcase from their proud owners and it was incredible seeing so much diversity in the style of each ride. Like a kid in a candy store we were enamored with all the custom work including engine swaps, forced induction, huge brakes, bold paint colors, and of course modified suspension...

Madness at King of the Hammers 2018

Hammertown, Johnson Valley Maybe this is normal for some of you, living with dust-caked skin day in and day out, zipping around on dirt bikes, UTVs, and quads until your skin is scorched from the desert sun. For a first timer at KOH, it was a fantastic example of extreme offroad culture and community. When entering into Hammertown, one is greeted by a parking lot of heavily modified Wranglers, Cherokees, Franken-Jeeps, bare-bones rock crawlers, toy haulers, side-by-sides, and everything else dirt worthy. Passing by huge manufacturer and offroad camps like Polaris, Can Am, Rockstar Garage, Warn, and tons more, the...
