Nothing's much worse than being stuck off-road in the middle of nowhere. Luckily, we don't have to worry much about that, thanks to the MaxTrax Lite. Built for the Australian Outback, this recovery board helps us dig out our vehicle and lay down some traction to back out of whatever muddy, sandy, or snowy predicament we drove ourselves into this time. The Maxtrax Lite is 48% lighter than the Mk2 traction board and measures 35 inches long for easier portability.
