[@PNWSingleTrack]

Your videos have made me a WAY better rider. Thank you for all the effort you put in.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Stoked to help!! Thanks for the support!

[@cmuz0013]

​@IRCTireUSAMoto 100%...free advice and tuition - how good is that!

[@enduro-parts-aus]

Second that 🤘

[@_nitinsehrawat]

Amazing! Love from India

[@joshk3476]

Best moto coach teaching the enduro stuff on the internet. Thank you for these, they’re invaluable. Camera looking extra crisp lately too, keep it up Rich

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Stoked to help brotha!! Thanks for the support!!

[@elinicfurniture6860]

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you. Top riders do these, we see it, but nobody ever explained what, when and why.

[@Matthew-zw9su]

I love it. Such a good instructor. I get it just from watching, words and visualizing.

[@motocatfish]

Bravo!!! This was your best explanation & demo of these techniques. Now I know the details of what to practice. THANKS!!! 👏

[@enduro-parts-aus]

The amount that unstuck technique has helped me is unreal. I always used to think i needed to drop the clutch with my weight over the rear and it either span or front end lifted Now the rear just floats up and over things with my weight forward 💪🏻🤙🏻

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Great to hear!!

[@robertocgomezdelacruz]

Great explanation of the power collection 👏

[@Matthew-zw9su]

Tremendous, as well as his encouragement to LISTEN. The sound is a language I understand intuitively.

[@robertocgomezdelacruz]

@Matthew-zw9su i really appreciate all the work on videos you do for us they do help a lot your videos are for me a inspiration to become a better rider thanks a lot

[@natefenn]

As always Rich, thank you for your knowledge and the time you’ve put into developing these drills for technique, as well as the lengthy explanations that people so often give you a hard time for😂 always making the riding world a better place!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Haha thanks man! I’m going to keep over explaining 🤣

[@r_s_enduro]

Thank you so much for these videos my dude. I bet ive watched em all a hundred times

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thanks for always support man!

[@lawnmowerman25]

You're a great teacher! I really enjoy your videos. I'd also love if you showed some of your students learn your techniques.

[@วรากรบุญมา-ท5ฬ]

Thank you so much for the great lessons. They make me a better rider and make riding a lot more fun.

[@trentzimmerman9040]

Nobody explains it like Dr. Larsen! Still waiting on that extra large enduro essentials poster I can buy.

[@simplymoto07]

Another cool vid.. I do think seat time is the key to getting better. And maybe cool to let your group show you how they would hit something then help them perfect their technique...I've got loads to practice when my bikes finished. Definitely want to master the double blip.. I got delivery and collection dialed in 👌🏼👊🏼

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

They all practiced the technique hundreds of times. This is 15 minutes of an 8 hour clinic

[@MMAI-x8j]

Great explanation! ❤

[@scotthallenberg3575]

Love the detailed explanation. To confirm the sequence as it said differently sometimes, it’s 1) throttle off and front brake off simultaneously and 2) an instant clutch pop (out back in), correct?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Yes sir 👍

[@bobhalliburton682]

Definitely need an overhead shot of your hands while you do this collection exercise - even better please cmon out to TN/GA and teach me/us in person 😅

[@seanodonnell7112]

Thanks for the help!!

[@Olli315]

Wow... thanks for explaninig it so well...i can´t say it with words...this was realy important to understand whats all goining on before i go about an obstical. Crazy like hell, but now i can train it, because i think i understand the right steps.... thank you so much!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Love hearing that!!

[@AKKA1976]

Hi...you always show and explain how it should be done perfectly... Most of us getting it wrong along the way. Can you make a video which show the common mistakes that we do...and how to correct it? Thanks.

[@NickNorland]

Love your videos. I have learned so many ways to practice different skills in different ways. So thank you for that. I also am a huge fan of IRC tires. However, lately I can not seem to find a distributor that can keep anything in stock. Is there some reason for this? Is there a manufacture shortage?

[@octanejimmy]

So simple yet so very difficult to master. Thanks again for a great lesson.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!

[@octanejimmy]

@@IRCTireUSAMoto I fully understand the concept but my brain has taken to many blows to perform it. lol Ill keep trying!

[@eastwood4006]

Me too! I've been riding my whole life but this technique isn't a habit so I'm struggling with it a bit ​@@octanejimmy

[@elofrosch6609]

Great Video - thanks

[@NorthWestMotos]

You and Neil Price are the only ones I've seen talk about this. Rev, squat, go!

[@roostafish961]

Really appreciate you Rich.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

I appreciate your support!! 🙌

[@kevinm.n.5158]

Crazy timing... i was just practicing this. Its a very fun technique to practice

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Love that!!! Thanks for watching!!

[@eltonaraujo6603]

Sup Rich another good video, thank you.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thank you!

[@mosca3289]

Dude, IRC are lucky to have you 👍🏻

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thanks man!

[@18S_TD]

Fun (unrelated) fact: “Forward back, forward back” is the emergency engine shutdown procedure for the CH-53E.

[@sirius7507]

Great Content- thanks bro. 🤙

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

No problem 👍 thanks for the support!

[@DIEZ919191]

best video EVER!!!!!

[@Впоискахдревностей-э5я]

Thanks a lot. It is amazing video

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Thanks for watching!

[@ShortsBySatya211]

Love you Rich! The same guy from Nepal 🇳🇵

[@vipera4646]

What gear is used and what gear? I use a 13:51 but I have very short first gear for this exercise

[@cmuz0013]

How will you teach these techniques on electric bikes when engine tone [on ICE bikes] is such a reliable indicator of power?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

When they have a clutch, it’s exactly the same. Without a clutch, it’s gonna be a completely different technique entirely.

[@silver244]

are you planning or dreaming (or neglecting :D ) to come to Europe to give some clinics here as well?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

More dreaming!

[@roostafish961]

Vieni in Italia! Il biglietto aereo è economico.

[@menashephoto]

Rich like one of your recent videos it would be better for us if you take off your hand guard next time so that we can see exactly how you perform your magic ❤

[@nickrobarchek2509]

How much would you charge to bring you out to Oregon? I have a group of guys and the best trails in the us

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Richlarsen511.com hit me up. 👍

[@lucasamaral630]

In a 4 Stroke, does this technique works the same?

[@eastwood4006]

He has a video of him doing this on a KLX230 air cooled play bike. Check it out, it's pretty impressive. Seems the concept is pretty much the same for every dirtbike.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Got that right!

[@spookyroofus]

I find myself stalling a lot when practicing this (and I'm on a two-stroke). I think it's because the timing of my clutch release is too far removed from the point at which I'm done rolling off the throttle. Is that right? Meaning, if I tighten those up so that they were closer together in time, would I be avoiding stalling? Of course, the trick is not to let them overlap, so that I'm still on the throttle as I'm releasing the clutch. It's easy to tell when I do that - the RPMs don't get fully collected if I'm on the throttle as I'm releasing the clutch, and you can hear the engine revving too much. But am I right that's stalling here is likely caused by having the opposite problem: waiting too long for the clutch release after the throttle is rolled off?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

That’s tough to say. I’d have to be next to you to tell. It could be either too early with the clutch and now enough RPM or too late as the RPM is already on its way down. It’s all in the timing. The release of the clutch is very close to the full closed throttle. That’s the tough part!!

[@spookyroofus]

@@IRCTireUSAMoto Thanks Rich! Really appreciate the response. And actually I think I may have figured it out (yes, I'm writing these comments as I'm practicing ;-)). I think I was being much too slow on my clutch release and pull. Meaning that the snap out and the pullback in has to happen very quickly. That's because if not, you're waiting with the clutch lever out and the revs off for too long, which of course will cause a stall. If you snap the clutch in and out quickly, your clutch lever isn't out long enough to be in the dreaded clutch out/engine off position to cause a stall. At least that's what seems to be working for me.

[@LuckyNikitaBoba]

Too advanced. I just learned how to start the bike.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Keep at it!

[@eastwood4006]

I've been riding/racing motorcycles for almost 30 years (I'm 37)... And I'm still working on and struggling with this lol. More seat time is all I can say if you are beginning in the sport 👍 Stay with it! It's incredibly rewarding

[@OlegAvdeev]

Beta dude at 13:50 seems to have a bit of existential crisis

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

lol!!

[@mosca3289]

Gets off the bike, looks like he’s about to just let it fall over, walk away, never ride again.

[@MrJanaRobi]

Yeng Blah ,Yeng Blah !

[@Enduro.Trials]

I prefer to just add LOTS of POWER to my 3 hunny and let her rip! Then just ghost ride my bike at the top and start making excuses.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

That’s one way to make it happen!!

[@DarkTideOffroad]

you should let off the clutch sometime so u can collect some speed do u ever go faster than 4 mph? please give us some advice on going fast too because that wins races. thank you.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

These are fundamental skills 99% do not have. Kind of a walk before you run situation. That being said, what’s a specific technique you’d like to see broken down? 👍

[@stevestackpole6817]

I like what you’re saying but your delivery is shite
