“This is the part where I have to start thinking about what I’m doing”😀

That was amazing. The uncut version, just real life honesty. Failing is part of the game, perseverance is key. We all know that, but seeing a top rider go through that process... Very inspiring.

love it! The fear at my age is not so much failing (well it is) but actually failing and breaking some bones. But the whole start small and work up you speak of is absolutely crucial. I just built a small enduro obstacle skills course on my property and at first it really messed with me but now it's actually getting easy. Made a vid on it to. I really like the mic in the helmet as your vid dude does the filming. Really great stuff but my wife says I need to start acting my age. Almost 58 and still riding hard.

great video. I really appreciate the fact that you show your limit here. "I want you guys to see my limits". Man, that is more powerful and carries more weight than perfectly hitting everything you try. It really helps lesser riders to realize that we all have limits.... It's about pushing against those limits each time we ride to grow and become better riders. Cheers, well done Rich!

you're great and brave!! 💪💪

Unvaluable, thanks so much!

I’ll never forget what you said one time when someone asked how you “crash” so well. You said “because I’ve crashed more than you have tried”. You have a gift for explaining all that is involved in becoming great on a dirt bike. In one of your videos you said something that I had often told people about talent. When you said it I said out loud “yes, exactly!” I’ve spent 40 years playing drums and made my living doing it for a lot of those years. I always chuckled when people said, “man I don’t know how you do that, I tried once and I just couldn’t do anything” I say, “well I couldn’t either when I was 12 and grabbed sticks for the first time!”😂 I don’t believe much in “talent”. Let me clarify. The “talent” someone appears to have is something inside them that makes them WILLING to put the hours and hours and hours of time into any activity to make it look like it came easy. Are there exceptions? Of course but I guarantee there are very few. If you investigate the “exceptions” you will still find hours,days and years of time spent honing a skill.

You are amazing Rich! I always love to watch your videos. You’re a great teacher and I always saw that eagerness on you. Salute!

Great instruction. Thank you

Perfect training.

Outstanding! Love your channel and the content. I literally could've watched at least another hour of this. Same with most of your videos when you're out there just like this. Teaching and educating with great footage, or live recording, of your skills. Keep it up! (I'ma watch it again)

This is one of my favourite videos you’ve posted…thank you!

AND YET AGAIN, rich larson with the most underrated tutorials on youtube. Once my MT16 wears out im switching to IRC. keep it up Larson!

so awesome Rich!

Thanks for sharing!

Bro I loved that ending soooo much, showing how it really is. Can’t wait to see you go over that 💪🔥🤟

Fun stuff. Motivational. Thank you.

To be perfectly honest, I'd probably sit here and watch you hit that rock for two hours, lol. Another great video Rich!

Definitely your best video yet, this is exactly how I get with certain obstacles 👍

Amazing rider and teacher. Honest practice! Learning and Teaching meanwhile. Loved it!

That was amazing to watch! You totally had the last two runs at the big rock at the end...I also could see the down hill approach and agree that puts you in a really disadvantage. Great footage, love the dog, too!

This series is absolutely incredible. What a great teacher and an amazing rider

So cool!! Love the insight and seeing the process!!

Rich thanks bro that was totally inspiring helps me to commit to do more hard things and not be embarrassed to fail

Amazing video, instruction, and words of advice.

Nice one great riding!!

Dude... Thank you for the tutorials! Once again, your vids are not only motivation for improving our Moto skills, but inspiration for life in general. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for showing us this, espesially the last obstacle. Your spirit and mentality to push the limit and never give up is very inspiring. Good job mate! I’m sure someday you will manage to solve it.

Absolutly top notch to watch that was glad ive seen that. Top guy

Dude, you're so smooth over the obstacles. Nice work

It is so cool to see the techniques from trials as they have been brought into enduro riding!

These are the best vids going for training I love these vids

I know this video was shot 5 months ago or so but I want to say your commitment is amazing. You have some absolutely great advice and your teaching is very good thank you for sharing looking forward to more of your videos I just subscribed

Again, your immersion with what you're doing, your mental focus and strategic thinking regarding the obstacle, AND sharing it with us at the same time, if that isn't the art of teaching I don't know what is. You got 100% of my focus watching this video. I was totally in it with you, my hands are sweating. This is 'fighting with nature', like MMA on rocks! Hhaha!! I hope I'll become at least half as good as you are, some time in my life. I have a KTM EXCF350 which I'm way too whimpy about because it's still new. But hopefully I'll be daring the stuff soon enough. Thanks Rich, you're the best.

Love the dog!!

THANK YOU especially for leaving the last obstacle in and the multiple tries. Great video!

BEST Enduro Coach - really appreciated

Nice to watch !!

Wow wow wow.......skills man, tnx for the great video

This is just cool to watch Thanks, Rich 🤘

I love the "just one more time"! 😁

Cool video, man I am so envious with your ability, bike, and riding areas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a really great video. A glimpse of the struggle it takes to master something is much more inspiring than just seeing successes earned by thousands of hours of challenging practice. Also, you know, there’s a point when there are diminishing returns for training on a given day. Sometimes it’s better to walk away and rest rather than making training scars that are harder to break.

Excellent tutorial. Very well done 👍

Really appreciate your transparency in showing the process. I'm a beginning MXer that would like to try these types of obstacles as a way to improve my bike handling and control. This video just might be what gets me setting up a log next to the turn track. Thanks!

Great video.

You are insane in riding and coaching 😮 👌

Best instruction on youtube, Thanks.

Your skill is amazing. I think You're motivating a lot of people to drill them skills up. And it is god to see You riding with your dog He is so happy :)

Thank you so much for this video. I'm very green in all of this and sometimes it feels like I will never master even the basics, but this has just inspired me. I can't Not achieve what I set out to do and am glad to see there are others like this in life as well. The most inspiring video. Thanks for the best training channel. Love it.

you are a very good with the trials tech in your enduro bike

Thanks for Sharing! I find It really motivating for my training. Love your Dog around too! Cheers from Italy, close to the Alps

You're a total inspiration man!

Love watching your videos, They make me a better rider every day from Baja to Death Valley. Please keep on trucking amigo...

so good, thanks for doing these exercises, Great stuff

Great video! Can't speak for everyone but I have no problem waiting for your dog to move. He's rad.

Sharp&clear

YOU ARE SO AMAZING👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌💪💪

Great video thanks

That was vary inspirational. Can’t wait to see you conquer that rock!

Hey Rich, you're the first guy I've met that has ever demonstrated the importance of the clutch by actually having a split camera on it whilst you're doing manoeuvres. Great videos!! Highly motivating and informative!! Well done 👏 💪😁

This was your best ever video! Seeing you trying and trying was so cool. It was very motivating for me to see you giving it your all. AND, Roamer is the best dog ever. I want a Roamer!

Excellent!

WOW!!! these rocks are huge! :) thanks for sharing!! you inspire me

Great episode, I love it when you show when you push your limits. It is very inspiring!

great video!

Thank Rich! Always insightful and interesting! Can’t wait to see you conquer that big rock! Your explanations are very helpful.

Love it man! Great iniciative in going uncut and authentic. Amazing video. Keep up

So awesome Rich. Great video and great work. Hey need tire advice for adventure bike. 60/40 street dirt?

Super video!! Thank you!!

Excellent.

You make it all look so simple. It’s incredible. Love from India 🇮🇳.🙏🏼

This is what we need in our community of riders who watch guys like Rich and dream of getting to their level. We don’t often see all the tries and fails off camera, the fact our hero’s are human. Keep leading us dude, we need you plain and simple.

Always love how passionate you are about explaining how to hit obstacles that 99% of riders would rather just go around 😁😁🤘 keep kickn ass

This the highest my heart rate has raised watching one of your videos. Love it man! That is one mean rock. It's like a 5' undercut given the downhill run up, can't wait to see you nail it! I could watch an hour of this stuff... no way is this too long. Nice to see your attack-dog self out there 🤘I've dropped my bike laughing in the middle of nowhere by myself after fighting with a rock with everything I have for an hour and for absolutely no reason. Then I come home and fall asleep thinking about how to get it done. When this stuff is in your blood it gets personal 🤣

Thanks for the videos. The depth you're going into is really helpful and is just what I need right now. What gloves are you wearing in this video?

Like some of the other dudes already commented. This is the real stuff failing and trying again. Thx a lot Rich

That’s a really tough rock bro! Great riding and general life advice! Riding is just like life, except more fun.

Great vid dude, that last rock was huge haha

You sir, are the single best instructor online.

You're such a geek on this stuff...lol...I love your videos!!!! Keep it up!!!

This was a great honest video and their wasn't really any fails! They were all wins that's for sure.

It's amazing that you can perfectly articulate what your trying to do. And if you don't make it your awsome at recovering from your slight miss too...

The dog is the real star, as usual.

So awesome to see this type of instruction video. I love the humour the dog the determination and most of all the failed attempt on the last rock because it shows whats needed mentally to conquer our fears and on bikes they are huge including consequences. Real world tuition from real world riders. Great channel!

You’re such an awesome teacher/instructor/mentor! Your explanations are detailed and very comprehensive. I’m a fan! Thank you for helping us hone our skills!

Refreshing and inspiring

Awesome just Loving your commitment I Just wish my dog would stay out of the way as Rommy

Knowing when to quit. I learned that just now. Thx

I TOTALLY admire your skills and persistence, you are a great inspiration for my next life 🙂 (I am past 60)

SOOO SMOOOTH

great content as always

So good to see techniques over and over. Its like school...then we attempt it out there. Big up Rich and Romer and the camera person

That last one is Mt. Everest. Great video man. thanks!

as an old man that started riding on a dual sport in SW Colorado rockies at age 59, this will always be out of my reach. But your vids are very entertaining and show me that I can push what I can do a lot more. A suggestion: Shoot these with a high frame rate camera, so that yo can slow mo these incredible clips.

When your dog lies down in front of an obstacle is proof that animals can sense danger. In my case it’s in front of my loading ramp

Love the big rock excitement jitters 😂 haha I bet u had a few more try’s after filming stopped 👍 love your vids cheers Aus

Great video as always, love your channel and all tips you have given. For obstacles like this would you usually recommend 1st gear ? As sometimes I'm torn between using 2nd or 1st gear because in my head I know that 2nd can drive harder but 1st is safer.

I would even try climbing these let alone riding up them…your a better man.

really amazing
