 Re: silly question but....
Yeah they are free floating just like a longtail. Mine pops up and over logs just fine or you can just press down on the handle and raise it up quik to avoid hitting somthing.

 Re: silly question but....
Actually there are several designs of SD and not all of them will kick up freely like a balanced GDLT or GDSD.....
That might be why it was so long before an answer - cause you did not specify the mfg and model....

There ain't no way Coco ain't paying that man. I've never seen such a brand wh0re in all my life. Every chance he gets, has to puff up the dinosaur motor.

 Re: silly question but....
He's talking about the pd's or maybe even the gt's. They are weighted back and not so "free floating" like the balanced gd frame or some of the mb's. They all float though. If you hit something the lower unit will fly up over it...  @jc

 Re: silly question but....
No u don't understand, gigacunt isn't messing with u. He's retard and believes he has the best damn mm this side of the solar system. He hates on every brand mm known to man except go devil. He swears by it. Eats it, drinks with it, it's in his blood. He has convinced himself that he loves the fact his go devil has no features whatsoever. When in reality he couldn't afford anything else. Word has it, his rig never even seen mud. Heard it stays in the channels as he watches others play around until they r stuck in the really bad shit until they need his help. U guessed it, even then he stays in the channel. I hate to be sooo hard on ol gigafag but damn he gets stupider every dang day. Unbelievable really. Anyways to answer ur question as others have they all will kick up. Carry on...

 Re: silly question but....
Let the record show, Giga did pull me out once when I was stuck. We weren't in the mud though, I hit the land to slow and got hung up. West End Angler has the pics. And to answer the question, Yes they will all kick up, some more than others. I got rid of my GDLT for a 35 Mudbuddy SD. I wont go back to a LT. The SD fits my applications more and I like getting to the spots faster.
