The reason why you are the best is... You do what Toni Bou dosen't. I hope you share your experience for beginners. That's why your are the best.

You're great at explaining things. Still having trouble keeping a slow wheelie though. I can do pretty much everything else. I don't understand why I'm having such a hard time with that.

10/10 perfect How To video , Learning what gear to be in for various size gaps and hops has been an eye opener , thanks Pat , look forward to the next How To Vid 👍🏻🔥

[@bcherrel]

Great video! Think you could mount the camera on the bars aimed at your clutch so we can see your clutch action?

[@FactoryONE_Motorsports]

Good call, I actually just did one on popping the clutch that I used that angle. It worked out pretty well, so I should probably use it more! -Pat

Hi Pat. I love your videos as you gives also the basic starting pre-exercises. As we many people like enduro could you please show and explain the most useful enduro skills on enduro bike. I have seen many enduro training videos but I like your style which is very helpful!!!

[@FactoryONE_Motorsports]

Thanks! I am actually planning on doing 6 trials and 6 enduro how to videos this year. -Pat

First of all wow you have mad skills 😳 ✊ , is there a complete novice version to practice these skills ? Me and daughter have Osets but I don’t think taking her home with a broken back would go down to well with the misis 🤷‍♂️

[@jabbabbabba]

Howdy Pat!

[@TheFrog767]

What gear to use etc another great how to. Don't those Sherco bikes look great what a color scheme.👍 oh you killed it in Europe100%.

[@thejohn6614]

I'd like to know too. I'm guessing 2nd or 3rd

[@thejohn6614]

Nvm. He's in first and went to 2nd when he skipped the middle rock.

[@krovakxixao2606]

Hi Pat, very nice and useful video. It would be nice to see some video examples how it looks when something went wrong. Anyways, thumbs up!

[@FactoryONE_Motorsports]

Good call, I include that in some of them but not all. I am not sure why, but I will try to include more "wrong way" in the future. -Pat

[@Prieste543]

Nice m😉👍 thank you

[@wildone2163]

but how not to flip back on your arse...

[@krovakxixao2606]

I guess balance is the key, but I agree that some tips for babysteps would be useful too. :-)

[@wildone2163]

@@krovakxixao2606 yeah, I wonder e.g. when you land rear tyre on rock do you use rear brake not to roll off?

[@thejohn6614]

@@wildone2163 he said not to unless you're about to loop out.
