This is SO helpful! Thank you for sharing all this diamond info!

Thanks for watching!

Something to practice in the uk, while there arnt any tracks open. Nice simple break down, and knowing the sound to listen for helps. Great video happy new year

[@Mr.shadoe]

So cool to watch the instruction with different students to hear how you tailor the technique to each of the riders and styles!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Stoked you enjoyed it!

[@augustogaudiel6327]

You are very nice & very helpful your student will really learn and become better. More blessing and power to you and your vlog.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thank you so much!

Great video. Tons of good stuff in here. I didn’t see Morgan there. He must have been fixing bikes. 😂

Great video! Super helpful. What I noticed was at 13:10 the guy was moving his upper body instead of his hips. Same as the rider at 16:50 his moves his whole body upwards instead his hip back. Am I right? Just trying to clearify it for myself. Keep posting those videos, we learn a lot. Tnx

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

You want as little upper body movement as possible!

[@tigerrider6711]

Hips are almost the only thing that matter. Any amount of pulling with your arms or upper body is not going to work and tire you, notice how he is mainly throwing his weight back and forth and only pulling back with straight arms. That’s where the novices burn all their energy, trying to use biceps and shoulders.

[@SwormCycles]

Looks like your back in Peach Valley, Olathe, CO?? Great place to ride & train. Did it for 20 years there.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Peach valley is awesome!

[@Jrod_FPV]

Rich does 360 degrees of front tire hops and not only isn't out of breath but continues talking as if he didn't just expend tons of energy. Crazy stamina!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Haha! Thanks man! Lots of trials practice!

[@baneeyboy]

Watching as many videos possible! I have valleys extreme this weekend, I'm sh** myself 😂

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Good luck!! 🙌🙌

[@silverblazer8246]

How do you throttle on at the same time as front brake? I feel like my fingers aren’t long enough.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Try bringing your elbow up and re-gripping.

[@Впоискахдревностей-э5я]

It's amazing channel thanks for the video.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thanks for watching!

[@oliste63]

I tried it several times, but it works pretty good with my Beta trial bike. With the Husqvarna FE 350 (4stroke) it is almost impossible. There I have to stay on the gas throttle.

[@timmychen6]

I always find body front and back taking too much time. Focusing on only moving body back makes it easier. Is it correct?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Depends on the situation

[@spookyroofus]

Another awesome explanation. Thanks, Rich! But quick question: what's the relationship between this technique and the "load the flywheel" technique a lot of your earlier videos emphasized. Are there times when you want to load the flywheel and release the clutch with the throttle on, versus this technique, where you come off the throttle before releasing the clutch?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Hill climbs I’d be loading and keeping the throttle on. The majority of obstacles I’d be turning the throttle off, then releasing the clutch as I go up the face

[@spookyroofus]

@@IRCTireUSAMoto Makes sense! Big thanks again.

[@spookyroofus]

​@@IRCTireUSAMoto What about pivot turns, when you need the front end a lot higher than you do on a typical obstacle? Ok to keep the throttle on while releasing the clutch on a pivot turn, or is the goal to get so good at the "on/off out/in" technique that it works for pivot turns, too?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

I would use on off out in to get the front into the air then transition to steady delivery of clutch and throttle together

[@spookyroofus]

@@IRCTireUSAMoto Thanks! That's exactly what I'm doing on my trials bike. I was worried I wasn't doing it quite correctly because of my need for throttle after the tires in the air through the on/off out in. Really appreciate your help!

[@edicionesDB9]

As soon as I make the lift, my arms get tense and I lose throttle and clutch control 😢 should I try to pull or just relax the arms?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Sounds like you’re trying to use your upper body. This is all done with the lower half hips and legs.

[@steve6548]

Time at 16:19! Way to go!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Would these concepts still apply on an EM with clutch?

Definitely 💯

Shane watts philosophy is complete opposite. he says don't complicate things just give it some gas and release the clutch.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

That’s one way to do it 👍
