Got to agree. Larsen provides every piece of information to fully understand what you need to do. Perfect for a complete novice like me who has just started riding.
"Acceleration will get you up things, speed will slam you into things" Chris Birch during a clinic. This is good stuff Rich! If you break an obstacle down into 3rds, a majority of the work is being done in that first 3rd, ideally you're coasting through the last 3rd.
I know I'm late to the party, however, I wanted to take the time to say how much I appreciate these videos - I've learned so much from this, because Rich L. is a man that can forget more than most will ever know about their dirt bikes...That's why I now have TWO dance partners now(a 2t, and 4t), and I try to learn more about them every day...I'm attached to these bikes, and will not ever be letting them go! -Almost my only friends, and that's huge for a veteran who's been ate up with mental and physical health problems! My depression, PTSD, TBI, opiate addiction from injuries/prescribed meds, and immense grief would have got the best of me and ended my life if not for dirt bikes...So, I SINCERELY thank you! I will commit to buying MANY IRC products just because of how much you've invested in me and other riders -We are all very thankful, and will not be forgetting!
A few months later, but Kia kaha brother. You hang in there and enjoy the challenge of riding, the amazing terrain it takes us to, filling our emotional tanks with the knowledge that you've earned such, doing more than most could ever do. You take care.

Student rider here. One of my motorcycle instructors told me "the problem is that you are trying to understand it. You should just FEEL it". Perfect example for when someone himself doesn't understand something while teaching it. Thank you very much for the clear explanation, it was perfectly understandable what is happening in the bike and why it would behave in a specific way. I'm checking your Essential Riding Tips playlist! And I'm hoping you would create videos for beginner riders in general, too.
Rider here for 35 years, transitioned over into Harley's for the past 10 years, just getting back into the dirt scene with my now 18 year old son. Great information in the video's, appreciate all the advice, it is helping both of us advance very quickly!
Thank you Rich. I’ve been riding ADV bikes for 3 years now, dropping it on steep undulating climbs losing momentum whilst slowing down for obstacles. Now I have the solution thanks to you!
Rich, you taught me this technique in a group training last fall and it has changed my riding forever. I'd love to see an explanation on the channel of how to load the flywheel continuously for hill climbs. I have a video of you doing that on an insane hill with no run up to it. Thanks for the videos!
Another great lesson! a great breakdown of this "Technic". This kind of lessons you can't get anywhere else over the internet! Thks once again for the great work you do! respect!
This was extremely informative and very well explained, thank you so much for breaking down the mechanical aspect. Loved it! This deserves more views, thank you.
i have taken numerous trials schools by the top riders in the states. not one school went over loading the fly wheel as you do. it seems to be a kept secret. excellent explanation
Rich, another great video! This one was incredibly helpful, and your breakdown of the use of the clutch, and the explanation of the fly wheel finally makes sense to me. I get it. THANK YOU!!
Learning how to load the flywheel definitely takes you to the next level. Ability to read the terrain and knowing when to unload the flywheel is makes it 👌
Love the videos but the clutch cam is exactly what I needed. Makes translating what your saying to what I'm doing wrong that much easier. Thanks for all the great videos
I just wanted to say, GOOD work on the video! Your talents in explanation are as good as your skills on DB. You are a highly skilled DB rider as your videos demonstrate. :-).
Been doing it instinctively and haphazardly. Now it's all clear. I'll try to master it at the first opportunity. This is becoming my favorite channel to improve my skills by the way.
This is great! I noticed my riding *sounded* different from other more advanced riders (they seemingly had higher rev blips while I was low rpm and bogged souding), and this is absolutely why. I've always had a natural fear over overusing the clutch, but I guess its there to be used.
This video definitely gives me an idea of how to start practicing the timing it requires to load and unload the flywheel…I was unsure how to practice this without trying it on obstacles. Also gives me a better upstanding of how much better I need to understand what my machine is doing to do this.
Bro. I didn't even know I needed this information. Just stumbling into your channel has me wanting to get off the road and looking for a new bike for this.
very clear explanation, I was needing this ! Thanks for all your videos, very well prepared and pedagogic ! Now let's spend hours to learn to imitate the master skills....;-)
This is something I've really honed in on whilst riding a lower powered machine like the GPX TSE250R to get the maximum traction and drive on climbs. A very good explanation there Rich good work man.
Very nice and useful videos. Thanks very much ! Maybe you have time to make a video and explain also next terrain, tight ditches (uphill of course). On many hard enduro places, are formed ditches, deep ditches... ( there are many on Romaniacs ). Which is best technique to ride in a tight ditch ?
Congratulations, Rich! The best channel for technical instructions for hard enduro. I haven't heard about these explanations anywhere else. Fantastic your work here.
Many thanks.Great video. I am a amateur rider.Do you use front brake before the rocks? Or only loading flywheel and bodyweight transfer?I have similar bike beta250rr 2t with zf suspension. My front forks are too solid, no bound
Great video Rich..😁✌ How do you go about it when it's not an obstacle, but a climb that keeps going up.. Do you keep the flywheel loaded the hole climb and just modulate modulate clutch, or once the revs are up and your going up do you leave the clutch out and roost up..🤔 My fear is flipping when the revs are high and the clutch is all the way out on a steep climb..

Thanks for your service , Brother. Your sacrifice is appreciated.
That’s the first time it’s actually been broken down enough for me to grasp the full concept. Thank you
I never thought I would come across any paradigm-shifting lesson like this….Huge thanks

This is the best explanation ever…thank you, been waiting for this….
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
This was extremely informative and very well explained, thank you so much for breaking down the mechanical aspect. Loved it! This deserves more views, thank you.
This is the most important off road skill I have learned in a very long time.
So, "load the flywheel", I understand. I really liked this. Thanks!
One of the best technical breakdowns i've ever heard.
Thanks Rich, this is the best explanation of this technique I've seen. Lots of chances to use this in the PA gnar.
i have taken numerous trials schools by the top riders in the states. not one school went over loading the fly wheel as you do. it seems to be a kept secret. excellent explanation
Wow! Thank you! It really is a well-kept secret, I’m glad I can get the word out!
OMG, that was the best explanation and display of how it all works!! Thanks so much!! You're awesome!!
This was a great video man. Completely understood what you’re saying. Thanks for the tips
Rich, another great video! This one was incredibly helpful, and your breakdown of the use of the clutch, and the explanation of the fly wheel finally makes sense to me. I get it. THANK YOU!!
Just brilliant . Great explanation and demonstration. Thank you
I’ve done this intuitively, but did not know the science behind it. Thank you 👍
Brilliant video Rich. Definitely going to be paying attention to this technique. Thanks.
Rich gives the best verbal and visual breakdowns to technique.
Now if only i had the youth and athleticism to execute these. 😆
Thank you Rich for explaining this critical technique!
Great video in answering my question in understanding the flywheel. Thank you. Now time to practice.
Thanks Rich! Great production and clear info!
Wow, I have been riding for 35 years and just heard about this now. Great video, I'm subscribing to your channel.
Learning how to load the flywheel definitely takes you to the next level.
Ability to read the terrain and knowing when to unload the flywheel is makes it 👌
Yet another great and useful video with almost a science-based explaining!
Love the videos but the clutch cam is exactly what I needed. Makes translating what your saying to what I'm doing wrong that much easier. Thanks for all the great videos
Thanks for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Bill Nye the Science Guy would be proud of this segment. Well done.
After 15yrs of riding I have never thought of using the clutch to control the bike... I really like these breakdowns.
Great explanation of timing. This is very helpful information.
I just wanted to say, GOOD work on the video! Your talents in explanation are as good as your skills on DB. You are a highly skilled DB rider as your videos demonstrate. :-).
Top tip, already see a use getting over rocks/steps without gearing down. Big thanks Rich
Thanks for watching!
So packed with engineering level understanding, succinct editing and explanation. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!!
Been doing it instinctively and haphazardly. Now it's all clear. I'll try to master it at the first opportunity. This is becoming my favorite channel to improve my skills by the way.
Glad I can help! Thank you for the support!
This is great! I noticed my riding *sounded* different from other more advanced riders (they seemingly had higher rev blips while I was low rpm and bogged souding), and this is absolutely why. I've always had a natural fear over overusing the clutch, but I guess its there to be used.
I really like your split video demo. Great job. Rotational inertia is your friend.
Excellent Tutorial&Great Control.Thx 🇺🇸👍👍
Heck yeah! Great explanation and demo of concept, once again!
Thank you for sharing. I'm a newbie and this is so insightful.
Good tip. Great explanation. Thanks !
Mate you have changed my riding so much!!!
This video definitely gives me an idea of how to start practicing the timing it requires to load and unload the flywheel…I was unsure how to practice this without trying it on obstacles. Also gives me a better upstanding of how much better I need to understand what my machine is doing to do this.
I’m glad to help! Thanks for watching!
Very interesting, I have never heard of this before. I will play with this. Thanks.
I loved it my friend, and the explanation even more, greetings from Spain.
You have excellent teaching skills.
Thank you very much for your videos. 👌
Exactly what I need to focus on. Added a flywheel weight but still need to keep the RPM's up to get the job done. 💪😃
Excellent video! Super helpful
I think this is the best video seen on this channel.
Desde España , encantado de ver tus vídeos y explicaciones . Gracias por tus vídeos.Eres un artista....
Bro. I didn't even know I needed this information. Just stumbling into your channel has me wanting to get off the road and looking for a new bike for this.
Wow, this makes so much sense! Thank you for such detailed explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
Very cool and great info! Thanks!
Time for more practice so I can more enjoy my rides.
I was today years old when I learned this. Thanks!
This video changed my life. Thanks you so much 🤘😎
Brilliant, it all makes sense, thanks bro.
Spot on break down! This skill must be mastered for any hard enduro rider or for any trail rider that wants to be comfortable in a technical situation
🙌 thanks Bruv!
really well explained...thanks gonna go try it out
I love the videos Rich - and the addition of the clutch camera. Loading the flywheel is terrifying to me... I'm riding my first 2T bike! LOL!
Excellent tutorial, thanks!
This is so helpful! Thanks !
Hats off to you sir. That was an excellent explanation of this technique. Now to the bat bike for practice….
absolutely excellent video
Great instructional video...
very clear explanation, I was needing this ! Thanks for all your videos, very well prepared and pedagogic ! Now let's spend hours to learn to imitate the master skills....;-)
🙌 thank you for the support!
Another great video Rich
Wow. Great explanation. Thanks.
As always your explanations are great - have learnt LOADS for ya - Thanks
I’m glad they’re helping! Thank you for watching.
Great lesson!
fantastic video. great explanation and demonstration how the flywheel affects traction. Glad I subb'd. Thanks Rich.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Thanks this helps me alot!
Best online classes ever!
This is something I've really honed in on whilst riding a lower powered machine like the GPX TSE250R to get the maximum traction and drive on climbs. A very good explanation there Rich good work man.
Right on man! Thank you for the support!
I totally agree. The gpx TSE definitely needs more clutch work and flywheel work compared to my friends 250xcw.
Really good explanation - thanks a lot.
👍👍
Awesome vid. I know exactly where I can practice this near my house too.
Love these videos !!
Thanks!!
This is the gem, thanks!
Great video! thanks!
Thank you!!! Saved me.
Parabéns. Você sempre sabe apresentar os pontos chave para melhoria da pilotagem.
Best explanation......Great job
Thanks for watching!
Very nice and useful videos. Thanks very much !
Maybe you have time to make a video and explain also next terrain, tight ditches (uphill of course). On many hard enduro places, are formed ditches, deep ditches... ( there are many on Romaniacs ).
Which is best technique to ride in a tight ditch ?
Great video with awesome information!
New subcriber here.
Thank you very mucho.
big fan of this channel
🙌🙌🙌
Thank you very much!
This is like finding the Holy Grail..... Thank you sir. 12/10
Awesome thank you!
Thank you good sir! 🙌🏻
Many thanks mate!👍🏾👍🏾
Love your Videos! Keep it up
Appreciated!!
I love this channel
6:38 There we go, this is about my level of
getting started with this technique, a little
incline. This explained very well, thanks..
Congratulations, Rich! The best channel for technical instructions for hard enduro. I haven't heard about these explanations anywhere else. Fantastic your work here.
Many thanks.Great video.
