www.crosstraini... Learning to ride a dirt bike? Do you just gas it, or tend to think your way through? 'Pin it to win it'. 'When it doubt gas your way out.' These expressions come from motocross racing and there are certainly situations where this approach works... although I think inexperienced riders can easily substitute throttle for actually learning to ride better. Try our training vids for working on your extreme enduro techniques. The flip side? Think your way through. This is usually the style of all the best hard enduro riders. Confronted with a tough section, they will sometimes stop, analyse the best path, then methodically work their way through. Need hard enduro training? Work through our video lists. One of our guys is currently racing in silver class hard enduros and working his way up to gold class. These logs are a great training opportunity. If you are enduro riding get into our enduro training vids.The bark comes off very easily then the tyres have almost no traction on the wet timber. It's all about using the clutch, throttle, weighting and body positioning to find just enough traction and momentum to move forward.... sometimes just one log at a time. Hard enduro riders translate a lot of trials techniques where losing traction is a cardinal sin. If you want extreme enduro training see our playlists of enduro skills to learn. We are often surprised at the massive holes in front of small logs or tree roots where riders have tried to wheelspin through, possibly hoping their rear wheel will act like a chain saw and cut its way through. The alternative? Think your way through. A few basic techniques will get your motorbike through with a minimum of fuss. And you won't wreck the track for others. Let's go back to the other approach. 'When in doubt, throttle out'. Hard enduro techniques are covered in our training vids. As mentioned, this is a common expression in motocross. For example, if you make a mistake in a corner the natural reaction is to reduce throttle which will often ensure a crash. But if you accelerate it will tend to lighten the front wheel and you often exit the corner successfully. Can this apply to enduro riding? In some cases, definitely. Into enduro and dirt bikes? Check out our dirt bike videos. But it's tempting to apply this approach way too often. Extreme enduro training vids are our focus. When we first learn to ride dirt motorbikes, we are keen to roost, power-slide out of corners, do wheelies and rev a lot so we can sound like our heroes. It can become our default approach. Our dirt riding tips are great for developing your hard enduro skills. Of course there's nothing wrong with that. If that's what turns your crank, that's great. But if you want to improve your skills, it can slow you down in the long term. Look at the pro motocross riders. They are usually so smooth they often don't look that fast... until they fly past less experienced riders who look fast because they are bouncing, sliding and roosting all over the track. I think the best way to improve your skills is choose the right approach in each situation. Hit that throttle. Think your way through. Or somewhere in between. Age will have an influence. In my 60s I rarely hit the throttle nowadays as the bones tend to snap instead of bend. Personality is a factor too. Some riders may tend to over-think everything and actually need to get a bit more adventurous. Other riders are so addicted to adrenalin that constant injuries mean the thinking approach could possibly save their life. What about you? Throttle junkie or Mr Methodical? Have you changed your approach over the years? Keen to hear your thoughts!
