This vid is great. This is what I will practice for the next week or more. It is very useful, including the static balance, acceleration and deceleration you mentioned earlier, and using the flywheel
Love your vids they are so helpful, do you always use the front break to hold the bike ? I always use the rear as I struggle with the front break and throttle
Excellent video. One question, so at 4:30, you said "release the clutch, then reduce the throttle". So the way you pop over the obstacle here is different than what you taught before, What you taught before is - throttle on -> off, clutch out -> in. Thanks in advance.
I caught that. I actually say it on-off then clutch out-in a few times in this video. I repeat myself so many times I’m bound to make a mistake here and there. It is the same on off out in on the release while doing this technique. I will say the off of the throttle and out of the clutch are very close together. Almost simultaneous.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto I got it. See I rewatched your video so many times to learn this. That's why I always remember on, off, out, in. Thank you so much. You are the best on TH-cam!!!
I don’t personally use extra flywheel weight on the majority of bikes now a days. Maybe if I was on a XC or SX KTM. I raced Endurocross on a TC250 and I used one.
I remember something about the front end over obstacles from Gary Bailey a long time ago. It is just for hitting a log or something at speed, where you loft the front end over. To skim the top of the log with your front tire I think was best, with the power on. It all had to do with what the front end is doing (going up or down) when the back tire hits the log. When the back tire hist the log, it will try to force the front end down, and it is harder for your front end to slap down if your front end is going up (under some power) when the back end hits the log. The front end has to change direction, before it can fall down. Using typical "attack position" and a finger on the clutch, it gets easy.
@IRCTireUSAMoto thanks, I really need some tips 😆 I had a Sherco 125 and recently upgraded to a Yamaha WR250F and I have been struggling a lot in slower technical stuff… it stalls a lot, lacks low end power and has a very snappy throttle when in 1st and 2nd gear… but I see so many people riding super fast 250F’s in enduro, I think it’s really just a skill issue 😅 Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
I would assume he is using the front brake, and my guess isn't doesn't have a brake switch on the front.. probably only lights up the brake light with the rear brake. My bike I had to add the front switch.
These are more the skills required for hard enduro. Trails technique is definitely important and similar, but hard enduro and trials are completely different. Hard enduro is about finding what’s possible on the full sized bikes. The open mountain. Trails is more closed course. Feet in the pegs. Pure balance and control.
I’m not even native English and understood all of it 😮
Haha! That’s a great compliment! Thanks for watching!
This is the best explanation I have ever seen. Thank you. Please continue with more training videos.
You got it! 👍
What a great video. I can't wait to practice all of these drills when it get warmer here.
Get it done! 🙌
Super helpful as always. It always surprises me that you seem to find some little thing to explain that I never would have noticed otherwise.
Thank you so much, man! That means a lot🙌

Glad you liked it!
Outstanding piece of instruction right there.
I appreciate that!
"Git where the bike is going to be." Love your show!
Thank you G! Always good to hear from you!
Good video. Definitely need to learn this and know what drill I need to do this weekend.
Glad to help!

You really make the best enduro technique videos, too bad I don't live in the US. I would love to do a course with you.
Maybe one day! Thanks so much for the support!
Exaxtly the Right movement I have to improove, thanks Rich, best didaktik skills you ever make it understanding
Great to hear! Thanks for watching!
Excited to practice all these skills with you at your AZ clinic!
Stoked for it! See you there!!
Thank you very much. This is the best explanation I have ever seen.
I appreciate that!🙌
The 511 special The most used move in hard enduro. Another awesome training video Rich 🙌
Thanks man! Definitely one of the most used moves there is!!

Now I have very good teacher😀😀
Thank you!!
This is an integration of technique. So fun🎉
Thanks for watching!
Do you use flywheel weights to store more energy?
I don’t personally use extra flywheel weight on the majority of bikes now a days. Maybe if I was on a XC or SX KTM. I raced Endurocross on a TC250 and I used one.
This is a great facility in CO. Tax dollars actually working for once. Nice video. Great information
It’s an awesome facility!!

Gary Bailey was a legend!
got so excited i forgot there was snaow outside :[
Show more of the 4 stroke guys!
We have some great 4 stroke stuff coming 👍

one think I don't get, with all that moving forward I loose traction on the rear wheel and it ends up spinning, especially in wet/loose terrain
Where did you find that log in the middle of sand dunes? :)
Colorado tax dollars put it there!
Los mejores vídeos, sin duda
Thank you!! 🙌
Excellent tutorial!
Does 4-stroke works the same, or does it require different delivery-collection work?
Slightly different. The timing of throttle reduction and clutch out are simultaneous.
we love you maaaaan 🙂
🙌🙌
Are you only slipping the clutch because your rear light is off?
I would assume he is using the front brake, and my guess isn't doesn't have a brake switch on the front.. probably only lights up the brake light with the rear brake. My bike I had to add the front switch.
I don't really understand "Hard Enduro". It is like Trials riding on a dirt bike to me. Why not use a Trials bike? Not enough gas in them?
Cause trials dont go nearly fast enough... also boring to watch. Full size bike's are a easier thing to market too.

Yes sir
I’m so sick of hard enduro . I’m going back to motocross and jumping. Hard enduro is too hard!
Thanks for letting us know lol
I feel ya dog
