    This was exactly my style. I grew up being a state champion here in California, but I had the worst technique because my dad never critiqued me. My elbows were always down which gave me the worst arm pump. I could do one hot lap, but then my arms would be so pumped that I could barely hold on the remainder of the race. Arm pump was the biggest factor of me giving up trying to go pro (along with tired of getting hurt). 20 years later I am now getting back into all the sports are used to play, and I’m learning how much better I could’ve been at every sport if I had the proper technique. Excellent video. I wish I had content like this when I was 16. All I had was a VHS Gary Simics video lol

      Same here dude! Sucks to understand this after all these years, then find out what you did wrong all along . But hey we are never too old to learn and as long as your body is good then you should ride and try to learn new things. After 14 years i started riding mx again, but damn i found out my body position is not the best either! Arms fell off after one fast lap or 2 normal laps. I found out my upper body is way to far back which causes the bike to get away from me, leading to pulling my arms = arm pump. I’ll try some new things this weekend 💪🏻

    I haven’t motocrossed since the 1990s (still ride a street bike), but use Ryans’ hips technique for mountain biking when things get twisty and rough. It really uncorks how you move on the bike. I also see World Cup downhill racers doing the same thing and it wasn’t until I watched Ryans’ vids on UA-cam that I noticed it and comprehended it - a bit of a Eureka moment. He nails it

    Great advice. Thanks Ryan. Wishing you the best from Utah. If your primary hinge is the knees, then your heavy, center mass is moving all over the place and hard to control. Easy to get knocked off balance when your 100 pound sack of flour known as your abdomen is leveraging back and forth without the hips. Pivoting at the hips keeps your mass centered and balanced and the knees and ankles are there to keep everything lined up and ready for the next bump or divot.

    • @EarthSurferUSA
      @EarthSurferUSA 2 роки тому

      I don't agree with that, and Ryan as an instructor should not agree with that either. Of course the sport is based on motor function for performance,--but it is driven by thinking,---or else a monkey would be able to get a factory ride. The only thing I know of where feeling, (emotions) can come out of us with no thinking behind it, is music, (not lyrics, just the music), and people who live their lives by feeling instead of reason, lead messed up and irrational lives.

    • @184ktmdm
      @184ktmdm 2 роки тому

      @@EarthSurferUSA I disagree with your statement about music. There’s a lot of thinking in it. There also seems to be a miscommunication about what I’m calling “feelings”. I’m a drummer. Growing up I would practice a lot, and be very methodical and thoughtful. However, if you do that enough you can just “play” and “feel” a song and have fun with it. It’s as if your body is doing the right thing with any mental effort on your part. What I’m calling just “feeling it” is also called “being in the zone”. I think in this sense when we use the word “feel” it does not equate to emotions.
      Also, if you think there is no thinking in music apart from lyrics, please look up polyrhythms. Or really any music theory. Again though, if you practice them enough you will come to a point where you can just feel it.

Thanks for inspiring us all, and giving me a life back with these two dirt bikes, when all I've wanted to do is commit suicide ever since my 5 deployments/tours and finishing my years in active duty military, and US Federal Civil Service!!! It has been a rough ride, but now my ride is much smoother - and I mean that in both my personal life and my riding life. I need lots of therapy now - throttle therapy. I can't possibly get more screwed up than I already am...I'm already 100% connected disabled from Operation Iraqi Freedom & Operation Enduring Freedom...brain trauma, seizures, nausea/vomiting, bad knees, bad shoulders, neuropathy, headaches/migraines, PTSD...but so thankful God has given me the chance to live further, and I will not let this trauma be the end of me...I'm a warrior...a fighter...and we NEVER give up RAIN or SHINE! That's why I respect Ryno...he is a warrior sent from heaven as well...just performed in a different "coliseum!" - a true living gladiator! and am I kissing his arse?? Hell yeah, I am! -He is a champion who gives back, and a leader...so c'mon people??? Let's subscribe, like, and comment, and boost his numbers!!! God bless you all! 🙏

  • @EarthSurferUSA
    @EarthSurferUSA 2 роки тому +2

    Hey Ryan man: What do you think of the boots today for a safety issue? I am not talking about their protection, but the lack of feel to the shifter and brake. I went to a more "adventure" boot, (really like a top MX boot of the 80's), so I can feel the controls. I am riding again after 20 years off, and there is a lot of stuff today I have to change, (like lowering the bike), because I don't like the new directions. I am doing some aggressive single track trail riding in Michigan, (whooped out and berms), and I am pretty sure I will crash less if I can feel the controls. Like a tall bike, I am not willing to get used to it. After the exoskeleton boots I had, (where I could lock up my rear brake with out even knowing I am touching the petal), I love the way the TCX Baja boots feel on and off the bike. What do you think of boots for this issue? Is it not important to be able to feel the controls again in common opinion today? Thanks man.

      There are many way this could happen - did you gas it when landing?
      Was it a bit uphill?
      Were your hips tucked or back rounded?
      Is your suspension too soft?
      There could be a few issues.
      Also you land hard enough and there is nothing you can do from the force of the impact. We do a very dangerous sport as I have been hurt from small crashes or not crashing at all.
      I am sorry to hear this but can't give you a true explanation for what happened unless see a video of it or you riding.
