Too Afraid to Ask

Whoops are those bumpy, wavy sections of trail or race track. A good suspension helps the UTV stay controlled and not slam into the ground.

Technical Definition

“Whoops” are repeated, closely spaced bumps commonly found on off-road desert tracks. They demand suspension travel and damping control to prevent the vehicle from losing contact or bottoming out. The speaker uses whoops to justify why the ProR’s suspension specs matter.
