Growing up on BMX and skateboards and snowboards, you get good at bailing. I transferred this technique well on enduro😂. But seriously, if you aren’t falling, you’re not pushing yourself.

These are amazing tips and they've gone immediately at the top of my TODO learning list. One thing, that is, IMO, missing, from this video, is "being ready to give up". A lot of time, I see people unwilling to give up, even when chances of success are next to 0, which is great in life, but a terrible strategy when on top of a machine that can launch itself and you with it into air at high speeds. There is no shame in not making it, but it sure is a shame to hurt yourself unnecessarily...

Great advice, thank you! My worst crash sent me over the bars pretty violently and I ended up snapping an arm and a wrist instinctively trying to brace myself before hitting the ground. I've been over the bars a couple times since then and have had much better outcomes with sort of a tuck and roll technique. Any advice for surviving a crash when you're thrown forward over the bars?

Hi there Rich. Your channel has been a vortex I’ve can’t get out of since I discovered it. Not only are you honest with your viewers in your failures during your journey to becoming the rider you are (and a mighty fine rider you are), I would actually describe you as a Philosopher of riding. Your ability to describe ‘how to do’ is phenomenal ! (I don’t say this half hearted young man)..👌Kind Regards - Rick from Queensland in the land of Australia 😊

Rich, I said it in the past, you are the best teacher of any enduro technique, and that includes crashing. I would add that you are teaching us how to convert a “crash” into an emergency dismount which you so elegantly perform. This brought me to thinking what is the definition of a crash? I thought it required both rider and bike to end up in a horizontal position on the ground. If that definition applies, then the title of your vid would be converting a crash into an emergency dismount. I would also ask that you comment on timing the dismount, you can anticipate and predict, which allows you to decide the timing of bail out. One physical attribute needed to lighten the crash is body flexibility, mostly to the spine, and hips, allowing you to jump over the seat, or to swing either leg around the bike as you dismount. My final request is that you comment on how to land your body on the ground when your truly crashing and not dismounting, as when we get ejected from the bike, probably something close to a tuck and roll technique. Thank you again for your elaborated teachings master, sensei, and sifu of enduro.

Yes you are 100% correct in a standing position cuz i experienced it myself i experienced hard enduro situations on mountain bikes first before dirt bikes and bailing off before a tip over or correction is much easier in a standing position i found that the disciplines with balance are transferable for me and i did not struggle that much with dirt bikes

My new favourite video Rich, I brag about how I crash at least ten times a ride just to see the reaction of people who aren't really trying to make moves in their riding. I also think crashing a lot keeps me safe, I never really get surprised by the next Judo move I face. I also train on the yoga mat and in the gym for those awkward ankle/knee/shoulder cranks that inevitably come with learning new skills.

Finally someone makes a video on how to fall. Back when I used to teach ppl how to snowboard, that would be the first thing I would teach them is how to fall. When someone would come back from snowboarding with a cast on i would instantly know how it happened and call them out and be right lol. I would fall all the time pushing myself but would never really get hurt because I knew how to minimize impact. Falls in any extreme sport are a guarantee so knowing how to react is the most important skill to have. I'm just getting back into riding dirtbikes after about 17 years away from it and both times I made it out i fell once per ride. First fall was more intense but i really needed it to happen because it boosted my confidence by getting fear of falling and injury out of my head since I'm much older and fatter now and nothing happened to me from that fall I was perfectly fine and my gear did its job. The last fall a couple days ago was a minimal fall n soft sand and felt like i rolled off my couch onto pillows lol. Obviously no big deal but it helps me get falling out of my head. Point is, falling happens and if u can know how to do it correctly u can save yourself a lot of trouble and pain. I'm going to practice these tips.

Great video! If you look up the stats for any great sports player or athlete, you'll see that for their hundreds of home runs or whatever they have many thousands of strikes. I don't remember who said, but it's a great quote I try to remember often - "It's really hard to try and fail repeatedly without getting better at something", and I think it holds absolutely true for anything from writing music to riding a dirtbike. Absolutely agree on feet on the pegs thing too. If any guys need further convincing, feet off the pegs significantly raises the chance of the bike rebounding off a rock or log up and smacking you hard in the groin :D

I think one important fundamental trait to aid in, crashing is hip mobility. When one has hip mobility, it’s easy to take for granted, but as we lose, it is important to regain the range of motion, and also avoid any impingement. Squat university has a plethora of good videos and tips.
