I'm Karl, a storm chaser and aspiring meteorologist, and I'm currently building Rainbreaker, a vehicle designed to withstand harsh weather conditions while providing safety during my storm-chasing endeavors and capturing high-quality extreme weather footage for my viewers.

The vehicle, Rainbreaker, is being built from the ground up with safety, reliability, and functionality in mind. My goal is to create a capable storm-chasing platform that can help me safely document severe weather while continuing to grow my skills and share what I learn with others.

Unfortunately, I'm currently working through college debt while also covering rent and other living expenses. Because of that, I simply can't afford to finish the project within a reasonable timeframe on my own.

I'm starting this fundraiser to help bridge that gap and get Rainbreaker completed. Every contribution, no matter how small, will go directly toward completing the vehicle, getting it ready for the field, and funding for the chases themselves.

Your contribution will go to, in order of priority:

A grille guard

A bed-rack/ladder rack to mount essential equipment on, as well as a retractable hail guard

A third seat behind the drivers seat

A mounted windspeed sensor and other weather instruments

High quality filming/streaming equipment

Maintenance to keep Rainbreaker on the road

Other miscellaneous needs such as fire extinguishers, spare tires/windows, general supplies

If you're able to contribute, thank you. If you can't, sharing the fundraiser is just as appreciated. Either way, thank you for your support and following along with Rainbreaker's build.
