Beating the hail of out EGO's new mower in a NASTY SWAMP

What happens here

The presenter begins mowing a steep hill covered in very thick, wet grass, including dandelions and tall growth from "No Mow May." The grass is approximately 11-12 inches tall, and he cuts it down to 3 inches. He observes that the mower handles well and maintains power without bogging down. He notes that thick, wet grass often mats down, which typically requires a double cut, but his primary focus is on testing the mower's handling and power in these challenging conditions.

Goal: Test the mower's performance on challenging terrain and conditions.

go to town okay so right up in the front we've got a parking brake when that's activated the mower's not going to do nothing to deactivate it just push on it again nice easy blade height change system i'm going down to three inches so we're gonna mow at three i've got my handlebars adjusted the way i like them now we're cutting grass [Music] yeah she handles nice [Music] sorry bees you had your chance skadoodle ah good comfortable seat for sure gotta i'm noticing a few grass skips right there [Music] now we're cutting this grass down from around 11 or 12 inches in total height to about three and these are dandelions so a lot of things with a lot of times what happens is those dandelions will just lay right straight over and then not get hit at all and pop right back up and this is pretty wet stuff we had a severe thunderstorm roll through the night before and this is the next morning so we're still getting a lot of that excess moisture from the previous nights for rain now if you look real close you can see that the grass i'm cutting is actually matting together and creating these quads of just dead grass laying on top now if i don't do anything with those it'll kill the lawn underneath so in my book that will automatically trigger a double cut which i'll do later on right now i just want to see exactly how well this machine handles
