thought I would send a thanks out to you guys behind the cameras after this video, I started riding not to long ago and you have made me really think about what I'm doing on the bike and try to incorporate new techniques into my riding. I love the videos guys, please keep it up. also, you are great riders especially for your age. cheers fellas👍🏼
I am unable to ride a dirtbike very well due to a foot injury awhile back so I am racing XC on a sport ATV. I have applied many of your lesson in my riding style and they have transferred over from Bike to ATV pretty well. Thanks!
LOL, ANOTHER AWSOME ADVICE FILLED VID.my gumby old ass got beat up on a ride with my son and buddy this eve. after work. some rides the crashes just happen. tnx again Barry! cheers mate oh and I'm immortalized too, (:
Now I thing you guys are just showing off. Lol. Your making it look so easy. Looks like flawless execution. For us gumby riders could you show more footage of you guys wrecking. It would make us who suck feel so much better. Keep the videos coming!
Rebuilding and upgrading my forks as soon as the parts arrive... bottoming them out is my biggest problem with down hill drops like that on a heavier bike. Was quite harsh recently on a single track with a staircase like decent around a sharp corner... CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK. hahaha
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES haha wow for 2 months of travelling in the netherlands your dutch is amazing!!! i'm from netherland but i live in belgium now ;) this was an unexpected but nice surprise! i really look up to you guys!!😊
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES Ooops. I actually meant near 180 degree switchbacks. I must not have had my coffee yet the day I posted that. ;-)
JoeJoe Moto thanks joe, actually thought we should be doing bigger drop offs than that by now but it just hasn't been something we've focused on all that much.
another great vid jedi master, thanks for the quotable quotes,hey the beta fever has bit me hard, i think ive read everything there is to read on the 300 rr, including forums that may or may not mention a certain barry,the new bikes turn up late september , and incase anyone in south east qld was wondering about going into extreme enduro to purchase a new almighty beta 300 rr 2 stroke oil injected ,well im sorry but you cant because lucky for me i turned up at the right time and put 2 G deposit on the last one available, yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh hhhhhhaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr,
mad benny suh-weet! a 2016 italian princess, i'm jealous already lol. no doubt you've seen it, but i compiled this list for mine that might be useful: www.dirtbikeworld.net/forum/showthread.php?t=118948
weird... I come from mtb Downhill school were carrying speed is my only way to survive. Compressing the front suspension that much seems super scarry to me. I think I will pass on that and keep dropping pulling the throttle hard, I'm not saying I'm an expert, just saying I'm really afraid of being crushed by my heavy wr450
Enduro Clutch N Shift we all definitely hated them too but got to like them. mind you, a while back i tried to do a stoppie from the top of a drop off but i went over the bars and the bike landed on top me, was sore for a few months after that one. :(
Personal opinion, if you're MX racing, I would not go below 10lbs. Maybe in mucky mud, but probably not. After 20 years at the track , 90% of the time the magic numbers are 12-13lbs. And not over 15. But 5 of us had our pressure gauges out and decided to compare them. We had a variation of some 3 lbs! Now what?! Anyhow, under 10 lbs could let muck in along side the bead area. Trials riding could be entirely another story.
***** yes, definitely a lot of variables with tire pressure, before mousses and TUbliss i'd only ride with 10psi or less if i had ultra heavy duty tubes fitted, for example. and wouldn't ride an mx track that low for sure.
CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES And what to do with the tire gauge variability?? We trust out gauges but they don't agree. Pressing on the tire with hands also helps to "define' correct tire pressure. I'm going to try a tubeless combo, it looks like a winner.
***** yup, i like the old feel it with the hands technique. but i've also got a low pressure tire gauge too from the trials riding days... these are usually very accurate and available from automotive shops.
love your videos, have watched them all in anticipation of getting a bike! just wondering your thoughts on 125 two stroke for me - i'm a beginner 6' 1" and 16 stone with gear on, would the 125 struggle? i'd love a ktm 200 but they're rare in ireland, and i suspect a 250 would be overpowered for me. thanks!!
Alex McLeod A 125 is not the easiest thing for trail riding. You must have excellent clutch control to compensate the lack of torque. I think a 200 or a 250 4 stroke would be better for a beginner. Just my opinion.
Alex McLeod alex there are so many variables i find i can't really comment on bike choice, beyond what i've already mentioned: crosstrainingenduro.com/cross-training-best-bike.htm
CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES wide000, just saw your comment and would tend to agree, a four stroke is probably a good idea for starting out on hey?
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES +Wide000 thanks guys! I'll extend my search to include 4 strokes, it's hard to know without riding them both but they definitely sound a lot more beginner-friendly. The DIY maintenance was the biggest appeal of a 2 stroke.
Deuce Nukem lol i really enjoy writing them. i'm probably just a bit more sane in the real world because i can get rid of my inner idiot tendencies in those disclaimers. :)
What if it's a steep hill that is so slippery that your rear tire is locked up and you are sliding down but it is to steep and slippery to walk it down because your boots would slip
+Christian 777 i haven't been on anything that steep yet. worst i've done is a steep section going very slowly and even right back on the seat at 2mph the rear wheel started coming off the ground... freaky. but essentially i think you bull dog it and if it slips out of control you just slide down your ass with the bike until the grip picks up again. probably too dangerous staying on the bike until you are a top rider like jarvis who can just slip down slopes like that sideways and stay on the bike somehow.
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES we'll that means I got lucky because I was sliding and dabbing like someone who is extremely off balance
Trains Productions on the italian princess?! i hope not! :) i'll check tomorrow but it might have been on aaron's 300EXC, he's done some petty brutal things to her.

Never thought about de-weighting the front without throttle... great advice!
California Dual Sport Riders it's actually something i keep forgetting too...
CROSS TRAINING ENDURO SKILLS hey El Jefe!
I’m in love with the concept that one day I could be better than I am. In the mean time, I’ll fix my procrastination problem later.
I've been clinging to that belief for six years now.... one day it will happen! 🤣

Finlay Smith cheers finlay, just happy to pass on stuff as it has been passed to us by others. it gets very addictive after a while. :)
I am unable to ride a dirtbike very well due to a foot injury awhile back so I am racing XC on a sport ATV. I have applied many of your lesson in my riding style and they have transferred over from Bike to ATV pretty well. Thanks!
ConditionSix a series of training vids on atv riding hey? wonder if anyone has done that before?
CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES Not in the depth that you guys do! Keep it up!!
Okay this disclaimer is my favorite so far. Also your videos are fantastic.

LOL, ANOTHER AWSOME ADVICE FILLED VID.my gumby old ass got beat up on a ride with my son and buddy this eve. after work. some rides the crashes just happen. tnx again Barry! cheers mate oh and I'm immortalized too, (:
very helpful, man you got a lot of vids, thanks dudes!! always enjoyable : )
Great video Mr. Morris! Thank you for sharing your significant skill and experience with us (your "gumby" ascertations aside...).
Now I thing you guys are just showing off. Lol. Your making it look so easy. Looks like flawless execution. For us gumby riders could you show more footage of you guys wrecking. It would make us who suck feel so much better. Keep the videos coming!
N D well... there was this video we did of our less successful moments! th-cam.com/video/zQ_fXPAwmPU/w-d-xo.html
Rebuilding and upgrading my forks as soon as the parts arrive... bottoming them out is my biggest problem with down hill drops like that on a heavier bike. Was quite harsh recently on a single track with a staircase like decent around a sharp corner... CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK. hahaha
You guys have made my day so many times it's embarrassing.
Keep it up (Freudian slip or not)
Rony Atoun excellent rony, our work here is done. :) i always get a hoot from rewatching the vids, gets me all revved up for the next ride.
just so educational! so much thnx from belgium!!!
SlyElement geen dank, de rien :)
CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES nog een belg? :p wauw!!!
SlyElement lol, i ben niet belg. ik heb voor twee manden in nederland gereisen. i hope that makes sense, my dutch is even worse than my french. :)
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES haha wow for 2 months of travelling in the netherlands your dutch is amazing!!! i'm from netherland but i live in belgium now ;) this was an unexpected but nice surprise! i really look up to you guys!!😊
Great vid. I'd love to see one about near 90 degree switch backs. Those get me every time. Both downhill and uphill.
+Ken Hadden i think i've found some that would suit, it's now on the list of vids to do!

I can always count on this channel for mature humour...
borat15151 indeed. i think you'll find the amounts of mature humour are only matched by the amounts of intelligence found within!
Great skills!

I HATE drop offs 👎👎👎 and I have to say I anchor the back brake when ever I'm trying them as well haha
