Brilliant, looks like an easy way to bend a drawbar or smash a casting
Wow!! A-frames are the dogs danglers for tight turns
the satnav said “make a uturn” so thats what i did!
get the impression thats not the first time he’s done that.
Just a normal day out in the forest, nothing out of ordinary there That’s very handy when turning around in awkward places and even I, a part-timer during summers, have done something very similar. Obviously this is also something you’re not wanting to do when fully loaded if your trailer has more than two axles
didn’t even look possible, that back box is extremely manoeuvrable
i was nervous just sat here watching. definatley seems the only way to be able to get out again.
Makes you think a bit watching that, but very clever fair play to him.
well played nice manouver
he can probably do that with his eyes closed, but i bet if he went to boots @ nottingham he’d struggle
Clever … Very neat.
I honestly didn’t think that was possible
Fair play to the driver that was impressive!
That might be useful if only 2 rigid spaces next to each other were available

nahhh at boots he’s gota massive verge to drive up at boots.
That was brilliant!!!
If you look closely you can see that he has a slightly modified A frame (it’s more a Y shape), the light clusters are above the level of the trailer coupling, and the outriggers are swinging loosely so will not be damaged if the drawbar comes into contact with them.
The shape of the A frame will give him a few more precious centimeters when jack knifing the rig.
This sort of manoeuvre is definitely very useful for turning an A frame around in a tight space but you’ve got to know what you’re doing as it is easy to bend the drawbar.
Also, never try this with a loaded trailer.
Still, not bad for an Austrian
