You may not know who Ryan is, but you have for sure seen his one of a kind Typhoon AUV (Aquatic Utility Vehicle) that looks like a Polaris RZR riding atop two jet-skis! We dive into who Ryan is, what made him want to build such a unique vehicle, and all of the engineering challenges involved in creating such a uniquely offroad experience on that water!

In this episode of The SXS Guys Offroad Podcast, we talk with the always handsome Russell Porter from Buggy Whip! We last talked with Russ on the podcast in Episode 50 at UTV Takeover back in 2020. We check in with him and talk about what sets their whips apart from the rest. This isn't a sales pitch, it's the passion that drives Russell and his entire company at Buggy Whips. We talk about Grandpa Porter, the fact that they are 50+ years into making whips, the safety factor of why you need a high-quality whip that you can rely on, and why safety as a mindset is so important. There's so much to unpack in this episode, we hope you get to listen or watch the whole thing!
