Good to know
Each track weighs almost 2kg, so while they are manageable, you will need to physically slide them under your tyres. It is a bit of a workout if you are in deep sand, but that is part of the recovery process.

James's Verdict
If you love getting off the beaten track, these tracks are a smart safety net. They are designed to get you out of soft sand or mud without the stress of calling for help.
What You Get
You get a pair of heavy-duty nylon tracks. They feature a sloped end so you can slide them under your tyre easily, plus 7mm grip teeth to give you traction. The rounded corners are a nice touch to help protect your tyre treads while you are working to get unstuck.
Using them is straightforward: when you feel your wheels spinning, slide a track under the tyre. The handles and mounting holes make it easier to position them. It is a simple tool that keeps you moving when the terrain gets tricky.
Value
At A$99.95, this is a reasonable price for a pair of 10-tonne rated recovery tracks. Considering the cost of a tow truck or a missed day at the beach, this is a small investment for peace of mind. Plus, delivery is free Australia-wide, so you can have them ready for your next trip without extra shipping fees.
