Anybody have experience with these? "seems" like a good idea especially for wet dirt boondock camping?

The link has a video of it. (The link doesnt appear to work from this post, sorry couldnt figure it out on FAQ)

Seems like something you could make yourself with a ratchet strap and some scrap metal. Good idea it seems to me.

I haven't tried those...but I did recently see a video and some discussion about these $60 traction boards used to free a bus...and they worked great. I ordered a set after seeing how they held up.
