G'day mate, yeah "popping the clutch" means releasing it quite quickly while having a little throttle applied. This allows the front wheel to come up off the ground easier and faster just before the obstacle so as you can maximize your ability at conquering large logs like these. Keep on roosting!!!
G'day mate, you just give the front brake a quick, slight squeeze which helps the front wheel pop up easier due to the resulting compression and rebound of the forks. The rear brake will not be able to do the same effect. You do it when necessary, and yes you can achieve the same result by pushing down on the forks. Hopefully we'll get to QLD for some DirtWise schools soon. Keep on roosting!!!
GREAT STUFF RIGHT THERE.. love your vids mate,how about a trailer for COMMON GROUND some of your best work right there.... gotta love that sandy loam, silty loam, clay loam, sandy clay loam, silty clay loam, and loam
@volta229 - G'day mate, it depends on the situation whether you need to pop the clutch or just crack open the throttle - sometimes you'll use one of those techniques, other times you'll use the other one. Either way you need to make sure that you get the front wheel high enough that it touches the top of the log as you go over it. Keep on roosting!
you should pop the front wheel allmost against the top of the log, then compress the suspention then accelerate so you can get that back wheel off the ground :)
Yes it does, however though by doing that technique, especially on bigger sized logs, you greatly increase your risk of getting thrown over the handlebars.
G'day, could you please shed some light on the method of using the front brake to preload the forks. Do you do this with the back brake or on it's own? Do you do it all the time? Can you get the same effect by just pushing down on the forks? When are you going to do one of your schools in Queensland :)
hello. do you think a 15 teen year old can race a yz250 2 stroke? i did have a yz250f but it was too heavy for me so i thought about a yz125 but i do like the yz250 2 stroke, so i thought i'd ask thanks

I just wheelie over the log... long before I get near it. Works! Very similar technique, just a bit earlier in the process.
@DirtWiseRidingSchool thank you very much keep up the good videos
"Tripe over the hangers " I'll have to remember that one

That was a great trip of the hangers
Geez that last bloke took a fair dive..
I am coming to your camp this weekend

This guys in The Moto 3!!!

i know this may sound stupid but when you go over big logs should you pop the clutch a little to pop the front tire over it??
awsome
nice school
when he said if you go to slow a 0:41 that guy has the same number as me
That looked like like it hurt
