River Crossing Technique Help!

Today the IRC Tire Guy is showing his river crossing technique in Hawaii.

Next week: "Hey I'm Richie Larson the IRC Tire Guy and this weekend we'll be scaling Olympus Mons here on Mars. First things first, the gravity might be different, but we still need to maintain proper momentum and - you guessed it - body position."

Got that right! 😂

The rest of the world- this is hard enduro. Hawaii- this is Sunday

[@theheartthehomecom7108]

These vids get me PUMPED.

[@soupysocksenduro]

If I tried this, it would have turned out much differently! ahaha great riding 100% respect!

[@grantbowen5047]

This is a normal part of a ride in Hawaii. Thanks for showing it. Those rocks can be so slippery!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Quite slippery!!

[@singletrackmarc819]

Normal here in east Tn too

[@thailandmopedadventures611]

Very helpful and will save a „Handstand“ on the Bike to get the water out of carb and airbox.

[@trailrideadventures]

I mastered the turn around and try something else.

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

That was Ansons approach 😂 definitely works well!

[@techustle1]

Cool vid! Wanted to say mahalo for the beginner trials class. 👍

[@thedelisopen]

I master the two hit river crossing technique. Go to fast, I hit the river, then I hit the ground lol

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

😂 perfect!

[@krazed0451]

I miss the days of high entry, well sealed air boxes 😂

[@gary6449]

The bearing seals on KTM wheel hubs have an *amazing* ability to let water IN.. and NEVER, EVER let it out !

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Interesting!

[@reddirtmoto4841]

my short legs saying; nope, we're not trying that.

[@natefenn3218]

Bro I need more YAP in my life too!😂

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

😂😂

[@ogasi1798]

rrrraaaap traction, hold and deliver bro - i love it and i keep trying to master it, you should come ride in Wales - that is barely a trickle compared to our 'normal' winter trails 🤣

[@timmychen6]

Can you make more videos on this kind of environments please? This is really similar to where I usually ride and I wish to learn more. Thank you so much

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

I’d love to!!

[@philipsmith6152]

Genius, would love to see you compete in pro events 👍

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Don’t want to smoke everybody 🤣

[@89grant808]

Man I definitely don’t have the confidence for that ‘yap!’ Especially when the river is flowing like that 😂 4:05 . I’d be under my bike in the river

[@jamesdenton3692]

Them rocks for sure complicate the crossing ,but the water ain't deep unless the exhaust note changes .😁

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Definitely wasn’t as deep as I thought!

[@modesteanton5632]

You make that bike look so light. What is the wet weight....and I don't mean river wet😂

[@Dissentient01]

Good times!

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Yes it was!

[@jodyharris4317]

👍👍👊

[@bowhunter1227]

So, what tires did you have on that day?

[@IRCTireUSAMoto]

Believe this was a vx30 and jx8
