Just so your bosses know as a consumer of dirt tires I'm actually more likely to purchase IRC because I want these tutorial video's to continue! Your ability to explain complex techniques in ways we gumbys can understand is fantastic. Please keep at it.
A good way to practice static balancing at home in your garage is to lean your front tire up against a piece of timber on the floor. A 4 inch timber is a good start and as you get better the timber can be lower. Another option is flat tyres. It’s definitely more rewarding and motivating when you can balance assisted versus being unassisted and getting no where.
Man you got talent to explain everything in short and in so much depth same time! Thanks for tips! The double blip over double tires in the beginning was just massive O_o
@@IRCTireUSAMoto I must agree with the previous commenter: you REALLY have talent to explain enduro techniques: you're a great communicator, and you know how to structure your videos so they are digestible and fun to watch. And that is not even talking about your talent as a hard enduro rider. Kudos to you 😀
One of the 3 best channels for hard enduro / trials skills in the world of RU-vid...(together with Offroad Fanatic and Cross Training Enduro Skills channel). Man and your vids are a great addition to the techniques
I just dropped into the 5 Miles of Hell trail system. I started slow on the intermediate trails and finally found a group of 3 excellent riders that let my tag along on for a short trip between escape routes. I found myself coming back to many of your techniques throughout that ride. Well Done! Thanks for the help, if I would just find more time to practice, I'd be up to the full 5MOH challenge.
Man thank you so much for your teaching and your enthusiastic energy Rich. I really do enjoy learning from you. I am fairly new to this sport, but I’m all in. Keep it coming. I would like to attend a school this summer if you are doing that. Thanks again!
As always very good video Rich. I personally practice every single day basic techniques as much as possible ( riding bike is my job on enduro, gymkhana, road riding, and racetrack ) and it’s always good for warming up.
Rich, seriously brilliant, spot on. I think this is the wisest and best basic advice I've ever heard. Also exactly what we lazy people need to hear about how critical it is to practice.
Jeez.I cant believe you climbed up that rock face.You are the master.Looking forward to practicing your tips on the next ride.How do your neighbors feel about your backyard track?
@Kevin Kang Probablly the other way round, dont you think? I've seen talented but lazy guys that doesn't get much. And also not so talented but disciplined guys that with time and effort get really good...just an opinion.
Hi Rich I'm writing from Europe and enjoy your videos 👍 Finaly someone who can axplain what he is doing thank you 😉 Can you make a video about which gear to choose in which situation?
Your videos are inspiring! I’m only a couple videos in so far, but great explanations, and great ideas to go out and practice! What levers are you using? Are they both shorty?
Constantly I hear "Ride with the balls of your feet on the pegs" however I also hear "cover the rear brake when doing wheelies". Seeing as much of your technical riding requires you bring your front end up, are you often riding with your right foot on the arch?
I think you have to, yeah. It's something I've been trying to figure out for over a year and came to that conclusion. Just get comfortable with moving your right foot from the ball to the arch and back until it becomes second nature.
Thanks Rich. I've been looking for exactly this to help train a couple of beginners. I'll refer them to this vid and then take them out to work on it. 👍
I wondered that as well. My experience was that i was able to get away with riding my trials motorcycle in my back yard lot but my 4t enduro even with stock pipe , no way. I hate to admit it but the electric motorcycle will be the answer for the future.
2:54 , Curious as when you do the low speed things where there is a lot of clutch slip. Like slow wheelies and such, slow speed double blips. Are you in 2nd gear? I seem to use 2nd gear a lot even if its very slow. Should i be in 1st sometimes? Thanks in advance for your response!
Obviously, you are talking about trials techniques. My riding has improved significantly since I started moto trials. Hope IRC comes up with good trials tires that work for lightweight dirtbikes!
I have learned a large amount from you videos, but the speak speed is difficult to follow while taking notes and requires going back in the video multiple times. Thank you for your training tips.
