TOP 8 Tips For Riding Singletrack on Dirt Bike ! Improve Your Enduro Riding

- Looking ahead is the most important technique in single track enduro riding because it determines everything, you have to see in front of you what is coming at you, so you have time to react properly. Also, many good riders forget about this and start making mistakes. Mistakes are easy to make if you don’t have the time to react with your body or dirtbike. You need to get over an obstacle or corner smooth as possible to keep the speed and flow. Raise your head up and look as far as you can, remember the faster you go the further you look, as the speed decreases so you can start looking closer.

If the terrain is a bit rough, then I suggest you stand on the bike, but keep your body low, so you will have more space to control the dirtbike than if you stand completely upright. Also as you accelerate you need to put your body more forward and as you use brakes you need transfer your body from front to back. This saves your hands, and you will use them less. You have to save your energy, because when you lose energy you also lose your ability to control the enduro bike in correct way.
Your body is like a suspension and can be very useful while riding. When you see an oncoming rock on the ground, prepare your body for the impact, but don't stiffen your body. You need to be as relaxed as you can. The more relaxed you are, the less you will feel the impact. Before you hit a rock, think about what you can do and how to react. If possible, try to get around it without losing your speed. If this is not possible then maintain your speed and before hitting the rock pull your body back to transfer your weight to the rear of the bike. With this body position, your suspension will absorb the impact of the stone much better. But remember the size of the stone and the speed at which you travel must be well calculated. Sometimes it is very dangerous to hit a rock that can throw you in the direction you did not want and this can lead to really serious injuries.

A piece of advice I got from a friend made a big difference for me. Your rear tire will always track slightly inside from your front tire. So, going through corners you want your front tire near the outside edge of the track and that will keep your rear still on the single track.
The rear follows the front. Go figure aye lol
Great point! When I think about it, you're totally right.
Good advice 👍
Another good tip, if you suffer from arm pump squeeze your knees on the tank and lighten your grip over the bars on smoother sections. Any small amount of flow to your hands brings life back into them.
Thanks so much for this. I’m a new to off-road rider and am honestly terrified of late on the trails. I haven’t done much research on how to ride single track. I was looking more at videos on how to double blip and stuff when I’m not even comfy with the basics. This video really put my current mindset and fear into perspective. I’m about to gear up and go actually have some fun now that I have some basic knowledge and approach to the endeavor. Thank you so much🫶🤙
Excellent video! "look ahead" is so true. I often find myself looking straight down at the very next rock 😅 Practice makes perfect!
Never look "closer", down. Always look ahead.
Sometimes the best way to go faster, is to go slower. It's all about finding your rhythm and flow.
And, the biggy. Remember to breathe, a lot of people hold their breath when they are highly focused on a task. Breathing correctly will also help you with less arm pump, obviously.
Also important to try and ride efficiently as possible. typically, he who finishes with the most energy, finishes first.
When choosing a bike for ST, try not to get your ambition mixed up with your ability. Small bore 2 T's rock in the ST. "Less is more".
Very useful video! Keep the good work!
Thanks for the tips 👍
Very cool video)
Always pick the smoothest line…unless you see a big rock that can give you air.
Sweet video
I would love to see of the Super Black Bird CBR1100XX comes back as AWD! Anyways this AWB is the future! Am excited
Great content but you should be speaking. Your English is more than good enough. 👍🏻
Yeah, agreed! Dump the voice over.
Agree 💯
I've been practicing talking a lot lasts days, but I'm not happy with the way I'm talking.
@@TheDirtbikeRider I don't like to talk in my videos but I'm not skilled like you. Voice over or real talking is fine. We will support you no matter what. 💪😃

Thank you! As I get new experiences - your "kind of" knowledge and hints got me far ahead of where I stand. Your explanation of the track and body preparation gives me a kind of 3D-4D animation (fantasy-hero-track-dragon-seeking) in my head (maybe), but it feels a kind of real (heart rate) - so maybe a bit willingly you have become my teacher at the moment and I am proud of your self-explanatory abilities. One more question to master my approach: Is cleaning the dirt bike really necessary? :)
You should clean your dirt bike after every ride to keep it's lifespan as long as possible. Especially if you're out in mud or generally dirty terrain.

I want to better understand how to think about the balance of turning the bars, leaning the bike, and weighting the pegs while woods riding. I ride with faster guys and they just seem a lot smoother through twisting tracks - especially those that are not perfectly smooth. Any recommendations?
I'll have to make a video about that soon
slow is smooth, smooth is fast !
oo genial
👍👍👍

Background music... for what??????
Good video... I am trying to build a channel... but it is difficult.
