What in the hell are you doing to lose your hood? I charge water fast and mud ride all the time and never have lost a hood? Now that I say this I'll lose it!

I'm with Brian on this, if you look at the shadow on the building wall then the pic is? I know they grow big in parts of Texas but that snakes body is as big as ole boy's leg.

If you pay great attention when you plow full speed into deep water, you will notice that the water that gushes up forces the hood to bend in the middle from pressure which eventually flexes it enough that the front locator lugs will pop out. Once they pop out it is only 1-3 more good gushes to snap the latches off.
I can actually beat the hood snapping off.
Have you noticed when charging water fast that the water comes gushing out of where the front bonnet plastics and the top of the dash meet? I recently had my whole bottom dash fall out 2" on the driver side when I snapped 5 plastic push rivets off (2 didn't snap they pulled thru the hood plastic in front of the steering wheel) It even disconnected the lights electrical connector at the rear of the switch behind the dash. I have now replaced all the dash push rivets with M8 flanged nuts and bolts.
In short Dupupp go faster and harder mate, I am the submarine captain of the Viking Clan. lol
My friends Rhino hood flexes up about 5-6" in the middle when he charges water too, them side rubber straps take a flexing.

Weather permitting I'm bringing my boy to the spring ride. I'm hoping these Rzr nets help keep trail debris from hitting him........
Thanks again Roman58
