@@IRCTireUSAMoto yeah, this channel is fantastic. I stopped riding 8 years ago, at that point there was literally no one explaining any of this and all our riding was trial and error. Watching your videos for one evening has been a revelation. Think I’ll go buy another bike and start riding again.
You're a master at breaking down techniques and dumbing them down for us. You're truly appreciated by so many and hopefully we'll be scheduling another class with you this fall. 🤟
I lol at the title and thumbnail vid sample, if this is intermediate, I'll never even reach beginner. Yet after viewing the hoping drills, I've learned something, I will be working on this, the instruction is very good, well detailed, not just fragments.
As usual a fantastic explanation, and demonstration, of how to develope, and master a needed skill. One day I hope to meet, and take a course form, the amazing, Rich Larson!
I’ve been implementing these techniques for a long time. I practice in my yard a lot and on the trail. Passers by my house probably think I’m an idiot, but hey it works and really helps my slower, technical ability. The more precise you can be the better offf you are.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto I live right beside a county road. Back in the country here in East Tennessee. People will literally stop and look, most shake their heads, and keep going lol. I try to keep my skills sharp lol. A lot of these techniques you teach I have mastered and they really do help when you use them on the trail.
My understanding of the flywheel inertia is like the impact screw driver. Think about a stripped screw and you can’t turn it but spin the screw driver like a spinning tire on low traction surface. When you can’t turn a stuck screw with a regular screw driver, the sudden brutal force provided by the impact screw driver can help the tip find enough friction to turn the screw.
I truly enjoy watching all of these videos and have learned so much. I was away from riding for about 20 years and to have expert guidance was something not readily available back in my day. A bit scary trying to learn so much information but I really appreciate all that you share! Love my KTM 300 XC W!
Great video! I'm definitely one of those who's above beginner and below expert, so this video will keep me busy for quite a time of practicing... I kind of naturally came to these drills on my own, but was not really determined to keep training them, just did few repetitions time to time... And now thanks to your vid I'll be more focused on those.. You're great teacher, Rich, thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for making these videos. Your hard work is greatly appreciated!! I have been riding for 30 years and continue to work at my skills. Your break downs and explanations help so much. I have already implemented many of your suggestions and notice a difference.
Hey Rich - I'm a 54 year old former MX rider that has gone 'all-in' to trails and Enduro riding (not Hard Enduro) and learning its a whole new ballgame. I ran across your videos a few months back and you provided some simple (sometimes boring) drills to work on that made sense for Mortals. I've gone through a few techniques over the past month or so and put in the Reps and WOW... One thing I see you do a lot that I would like you to break down is your lunge move... like when you're straddling and obstacle, right foot on brake, left foot on surface, and you pull back on the bike to load it and then lunge your body forward as you release the clutch. A lot going on there. Was hoping you could break that down and possibly a simple/safe way to practice it. If I can add that move to the arsenal I'm already learning from you that would help eliminate one of the major obstacles I struggle with the most. Riding is much more fun these days now that I ride better and its keeping me off the ground as well. Thx Todd
Oh, I forgot to add. I recently started rocking the IRC 33s on my YZ250x and it automatically upped my Game. May have to drop one on my Factory Sherco as well. I may not be able to ride like Rich but I can at least try to look like Rich.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto That's what I was looking for. Time to put in some reps and see how it translates. Mastering this, I'm sure will give me confidence to tackle some things I would normally pass up. Thx Todd
Thank you for these videos Rich your an animal on that machine. Since I started watching your videos my riding technique has gotten a whole hell of a lot better. I appreciate these videos.
These are fantastic videos. I have never before heard someone be able to so clearly articulate his hands on experience into words that so many people and understand. On another note.. what kind of bike is that??
Excellent man - Thanks - you've explained to me what I do when I do it well - BUT up till now know why!!! - now I'll practice and do it hopefully even better
i come have an expert mountain biking background and i switch over to dirtbike recently. i intuitively understood loading the fly wheel before i knew what i was doing. i would do the same thing with my legs on a mountain bike approaching obstacles.
Love that you're gonna go more independent on the flywheel. Would love more trottle/ clutch sounds. AND on a four stroke!!!! 2 strokes a so light. I'd appreciate that!!!
Most hard enduro guys use 2 strokes for the weight, but also the ability to lug the engine. 2 strokes only need about half the rpms to stay alive. A lot less bogging Nice last name aha
Hey, Rich. I'm a big fan of yours and IRC tire (VE-33s on my Beta 200rr). I live in Taiwan, people here use to speak chinese (mandarin). I really love your technique video, and I'd like to introduce them to our riders. However, most enduro riders in my country have poor English-listening ability. I want to translate your video and send you the chinese subtitle. Hope you can understand.
Great thanks to IRC for supporting such a great enduro technical knowledge! Watching every video, keep going! Rich, your explanations are pretty good, may be you could improve it by explaining your clutch and other controls engagement points while showing stop frames while playing obstacle shots.
Hey, really appreciate your videos and just the sharing of hard earned knowledge. Question... do you lower your bike? Is that a "done" thing with hard enduro riders? I find it amazing how unassuming most dirt bikers are in stature and appearance but, when riding the dabs, easy on / offs, the flat footing through the most gnarly ground .. I'm 6' and just are not able/talented??? enough to walk a bike like that... Thanks much for the vids..
One thing I learned in this video is that I am nowhere near being an intermediate rider. =)
Tremendous ability to clearly explain what's going on is as amazing as the riding skills. It's a privilege to watch these videos.
Our pleasure! Thanks for the support!
Well said, Ditto :)

i bet you can't name someone better and more underrated than him... amazing vid btw.
Dude, this is pure gold!
Nice vid! At 4:44 your neighbors must be the nicest ones on the planet! 🤘🏾🤘🏾
What a guy this Tire Guy! Thanks for making these videos, really helpful and inspiring!!
Definitely the best hard enduro training videos on youtube
Three cheers for Rich! Always good stuff to work on in the yard.
I lol at the title and thumbnail vid sample, if
this is intermediate, I'll never even reach beginner.
Yet after viewing the hoping drills, I've learned something,
I will be working on this, the instruction is very good, well detailed,
not just fragments.
Wow, these videos of tips and skills to work on are awesome and informative. Thanks for sharing!
Simply the best at explaining these techniques and you are a great asset to the sport. Keep it coming, greatly appreciated.
Amazing how clear your explanations are. At the same time it makes me feel like a beginner now!!
Best vid I've watched in awhile, post more like this. I'm right at the point you mention in the video. A+
Thanks for the tips. Keep breaking down the little things for us!!! Your videos are super helpful.
2:15 to about 4:00 , great 'front end' hopping instruction.
very helpful and analytical, especially the slow motion sections
Glad it was helpful!
I really enjoy your tips and tricks. I will be applying this stuff next time out.
As usual a fantastic explanation, and demonstration, of how to develope, and master a needed skill.

Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
I think you need to watch your back after revealing those techniques in such an excellent way )))) Great Vids man !!!
Great stuff!! Been practicing with my kiddos!! Your vids are really the best. Thank you
+1 to Sal, I’m going back to the beginner class 😂
Excellent video and very clear break down, you have a great skill for making it simple to understand. Thanks!

You are a Master bro. Love your videos👌🏼🤟🏼
You make such great videos! Great didatics and skills, it helps a lot! Cheers!
Digging the vids Rich! I'm excited to go practice pivots with more awareness of when I step over the bike. Awesome tips!
Glad to hear it!
Love this guy.
Well described. I subscribed. Nice 👍🏻 one brother 🤙🏻
is OK if I achieve the next level in another 5 years...LOL love the vids
Hammer down it won't take too long!

Great advice once again....
Wow thanks for this, I'm small man I dunno if I can do the pivot turn
Wicked Video Rich , thanks for these tips!
No problem 👍
What are your thoughts on using elbow guards?? Should you use them?? Can you do a must have gear for enduro??
Awesome videos thanks
Excellent.
Always good info, 👍
Very helpful video. Like it.
Great video as always!

Absolutely masterpiece!
Always great!!!
you technique out...great video
Such good info!
What front tire is that chief?
Thats an IRC that is coming out soon!
Good info
Would be nice to watch you doing all these stunts with a Dualsport like a 250 CRF L or 250 KLX S.Amazing skills!
Thanks Rich
Great info
Great thanks to IRC for supporting such a great enduro technical knowledge! Watching every video, keep going! Rich, your explanations are pretty good, may be you could improve it by explaining your clutch and other controls engagement points while showing stop frames while playing obstacle shots.
Rad skills!
Great stuff! Thanks

Your videos are very good. Could you explain the balance of wheels and the importance of traction and balance?
You're amazing
Hi. What sag do you run with this type of riding? Thanks
What tire do you recommend for trail riding
In rocky terrain?
(Black Hills South Dakota)
Just an idea, but can you also mention when there is any difference when using a 4-stroke bike?
Have to get one. We plan on it in the future.
Great 👏👏👏

SERIOUS QUESTION! I have one bike, 4 stroke 450, should i try to practice low speed wheelie balance on my main bike?
What the weight of your flywheel?
When performing a pivot turn how much are you pulling back vs using the clutch to get the bike up and keep it there?
Mostly clutch. You really shouldn't be working too hard.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto sounds like I got work todo! Thanks!
Your page is it a hashtag page? I didn’t find you
I'm yet to find a bike to master these skills...are 2strokes better than 4strokes...we have limited choice 100cc two strokes or 150cc 4strokes
Like someone else said; 'I'm not intermediate', though
I thought I might be getting close lol. I have a long
way to go.
It's all about compressing your front suspension..about how many inches????
SOLID!
Thanks!
Anyone knows what's this guy's height ?
Here’s you comment, cool videos ..
Ok, after about 10 yeas of riding and after watching this, I might be just below beginner stage 😉
