Paraphrasing: "You tried 10 times, it didn't work out so great, then you went for a ride. Now you're wondering why you still can't do the skill." Describes me perfectly. And yeah: ouch. But I needed the harsh medicine to cure the pain. I'm sure I'm not alone. Thanks tons, Doc.
So, I’ve been doing the 30 minutes/day garage practice for static balance… and I’m 🤏 **almost** there! From seriously not being able to static balance for half second lol. It’s pretty amazing what can be done with quality practice. The balance I’ve gotten to this point has vastly improved my slow riding. Thanks Rich! And thanks IRC!
My boy is 15 has a 2005 ktm 200exc and because of your videos he is doing this double blip and it has only taken him a couple nights in the back yard course to figure it out thanks so much for putting excellent teaching vids out!
@@trg_domes2623 we have a few things set up in the back yard but the one he hits the most is a 3 log obstacle which consists of 3 logs stacked in a triangle which is about 3-4ft tall. we also have tires laid flat and tires dug into the ground to jump over and a small matrix. I have two boys that ride and they spend a lot of time back there. Good luck in your riding!
100 tries is not enough to learn the double blib and before that you better do at least 10 000 tries of static balance. It's tough but soooo rewarding. Thanks Mitch! Came here to rewatch and I think I have to work on my body front-back-front movement. Getting better every session tho and clearing bigger obstacles I could have ever believe!
Your spot on with the repetitions thing, one foot off slow wheelies (for pivot's ect) took me 30mins a day for 10 days with fresh arms then 10mins a day for another ten days with end of a ride arms, i counted reps for a few sessions and averaged it out and it was over 1500 repetitions, sounds like a lot but that's what it took me to get fully confident with them. I find when learning new stuff its much easier to set a goal of x amount minutes practice a day, rather than an actual skill level goal, you put in the time and the skills will develop almost without you realizing (providing you know theoretically what you have to do of course, great videos like this one really help there!)
Does it count as a double blip if you hit rock straight on & rebound backwards, panic, grab a handful of throttle & bike zips out from underneath me & gets over rock without me on it?? My clutch hates your videos, but I feel I take a little bit from each 1. Keep em coming.
Thanks Rick, definitely the most sincere and in depth explanations. I 've found that keeping the practice exercises fun and not to serious you're more relaxed and it becomes easier. It's not like you have to learn these techniques overnight so you can compete in the Erzberg rodeo the next day. I'm 61 yrs. old and just got into riding again. After practicing enough you're brain will get out of the way, you'll have you're timiming down and you can can look forward to your next challenge. Have fun guy's and break it up a little.
I've been practicing these! You're so right though - I counted the number of reps I did and it was in the ~18 rep range. It feels like way more when you're out there trying them.
Great tips, seems very helpful. Will practice. I appreciate all your tip videos! You are a pro at this. One tip I have for you regarding your studio segments...Raise the very low key light you have that casts the strange shadow on the wall.
Thanks for returning to these techniques, it is easy to just hammer on and not get better...this is vid is a wake up call...there's more skill to be gained. Thanks for your time Rich 🤙
Hey Rich so true i can double blip pretty good ridden trials for 30 years and the only thing you kinda missed is when learning the clutch feel is you need to be lifting the front wheel with zero wheelspin thats zero nun not even a bit , really good info and well explainned ,
Hi Rick. I admire your persistance and discipline. You're a perfectionist that always seek to overpass your own limits. Thanks for sharing your knowlwdge. This is useful for enduro and for life. Once I read this on a guitar's teacher wall: DONT PRACTICE UNTIL YOU DO IT GOOD, BUT PRACTICE UNTIL YOU CAN''T DO IT WRONG.
I realized this just last week. i decided i wanted to learn to double blip so everyday after work i would put my gear on and do only double blips untill the sun went down every day that week. because of work and when the sun goes down that meant i had about 40 mins a day. now after that week i am no expert but i doubled the size of the logs i can comfortably hop and increased my clutch and throttle control by a lot. i plan to continue training new skills like this and i will keep telling my mates who complain about not knowing how to do things because of their bike or they just cant do it because of so and so. thank you for the tips and making me realise that to learn things on the bike i cant just go for rides like i usually do and expect to magically get good at certain things.
This is sublime. You just can't say it better. So many techniques for trials and hard enduro are rooted in repetition, reflex, and precision. But not in such a way that they require that to achieve a positive result. The more precise, the better and simpler the move will be. The double blip (clutchless) was the second technique I learned for trials behind the simple ride-up. It. took me at least a month of daily practice to make it second nature. I have to do the same for the TRAIL bike now. And the difference in weight and suspension, combined with the clutch component will make this a COMPLETELY different activity. The real advantage is having the "feel" of the correctly performed procedure engrained into my brain makes recognition of a correctly performed first and/or second blip much easier. Also, there seems to be differing descriptions of techniques, and while I would technically call what you are doing in this video looks a bit like a double-blip zap, where you are getting lift with the stab (jump) and throttle shutoff in the second blip, rather than a blip that continues to the object. I would love there to be a uniting video that clarifies, the differences in the techniques, so it won't get so confused. ---- Either way, it is FANTASTIC INSTRUCTION.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto YOU ARE SO CORRECT!!!! I don't know if you (Rich) monitor this yourself or if you have a "team" of helpers, but you know there are "a-ha" moments in learning the differences in these techniques. I want to share with you one of those that I had In learning the zap technique, I was having trouble getting the lift of the rear tire, and while we discuss the fact that the power stays on until the tire makes contact on the double blip, the MAGIC part of the zap technique is achieved when the unload (jump) occurs at front tire impact and it is accompanied with the hard blip- IMMEDIATELY followed by the chop of the throttle. It just didn't register that the swingarm will not unload (or leave the ground) until you do so!!!! HUGE!
thanks for this new and wonderful breakdown....i´ve started working seriously on that,,,,i see around me riders attempting obst in crazy ways,,,,,i´m a beginner but i wanna built porperly........i realise that the moment i place the front tire is the moment my torso is moving forward...smashing on the bars,,,,,,,.before the jumping gesture.....,,,,thanks again Rich !
Thanks for the honesty! If you could master this stuff in 10 tries or a day, the backs of all our jerseys would say Jarvis, Bolt, Webb....... you get the idea.
Great tip on focusing on the placement of the front tire, yes yes-get that front tire in the right spot and the rest flows easily with out much thought, at least in till the obstacle is large enough to require holding pressure off the back side.... then it gets hard again....
So this is a bit off topic from the double blip.I’ve been trying floaters off of trees and small rocks lately. Starting to get a feel for it, but I struggle to stay on the bike after I’ve punched the front wheel off of the obstacle. With that being said, I was hoping you could do a video on this technique. I’m sure there’s other folks out there who could benefit as well. Thanks man, I really enjoy your videos. Have a good day.
Hey TireGuy, im German and usally i can do the Technics you explain in your Videos but i still watch them, quiet Interesting and Fun!! Keep it goining, LOVE your Vids !!!
So true. Big thing for me to quit trying early is to mentally accept beforehand that it takes a long time, it will hurt and be exhausting. The bike will go down, a lot. And get skuffed and damaged. It sucks, but it's unavoidable and best just get it out of the way until you learn the skill.
500 like, 100 comment! Thx for the class.....again. I came to dirt late in life. You have helped me immensely with your clear and concise explanations. Repetition. My poor bike is gonna take a beating.
Yes….!! Very inspiring….!! Thanks for all you’ve done for us Rich. Lookin forward to cussing your name more as I struggle through hours of suckin watchin you make it look so easy. Cheers 🍻🏁
Hi Rich Do you ever get arm pump? If you do how do you train? When you did 500 double blips, how did you not cramp up ? It would be a great idea for a new video if you don’t have one yet
Very useful !!! question: when you engage the clutch, the acceleration is 0%, you use only the motor inertia ? The clutch lever is release with maximum speed ?
When the throttle for the first time, do you use the front brake to compress the shock absorber? Don't you use the rear brake from the beginning to the end?this confuses me
Are the double blips Identical when running over the rock you're doing with Anson...in my imagination I feel when the first blip lifts the front tire from suspension compression then you take away throttle power then do you clutch it in to prepare for the second blip or you blip with the clutch out...please help me understand...I have a 4 stroke 150 cc dual sport Chinese brand and I've never mastered how to lift the front tyre ...I lift it when on off-road unintended and I feel nice but I want to thrive in it as you said. Pls help out Mr Larson
Ok so im bad at double blips i can get over a log and i get the idea and almost have a sloppy technique but im realising i need to work on the steps before that...i need to work on what im doing with my front wheel first great vid!
I ride moto, not enduro, but I love these skills and have been trying to learn them whenever at the track. I do this over logs and hay bales but it’s more like bulldogging up and over it in one blip rather than 2. Loading the flywheel seems difficult because it’s so light. Am I wrong and just not practiced enough?
Hey Rich, it might just be hard to tell from the video, but in some of the examples it looks like you aren't covering the rear brake when doing a double blip (due to the amount of movement out of your right foot). Should we be covering the rear brake when attempting this, or is it better to have your weight more on the balls of your feet for the ease of movement?
its allways better to cover the rear break, with a bit to much throttle or lean you can easly fall over! I would recommend to place your foot over the Rearbreak.
I don’t recommend covering it at all times while double blipping. 90% of the time I keep my foot on the ball while double blipping Or any technique for that matter. You have more control of your body and bike while on the balls of your feet. Your ability to move from a ball of your foot to the rear brake is imperative.
I tried pivot turns yesterday did 1000 ... 15min later I didn't get it so I actually did go for a ride...... that's my Wednesday cardio now 30 to 40 minutes of balanced pivot turns until I get it.
Yiur videos are awesome, and dead-on! Any time we aren't "getting good" at a technique it's 99% not trying hard enough. Also, you make me miss the riding in southeast Idaho/northern Utah! Question... I ride an 04 CR250R with very little bottom end power. Any specific tips for lifting the front end with a mid-and-up powerband?
i started riding 15 years ago when i was 35 years old. now i'm at fifty, and i i don't see me ever learning one..i've never tried to do one because i am scared shitless... injuries take so fucking long to heal ..... getting old totally sucks ass! i do want to learn to slow wheelie before i clock out of being around on this planet. my only regret in life is that i didn't start riding sooner...
Man I taught before, and it was the same excuse. I can't do it, I really tried! But then in the 30min lesson if I force them to practice the whole 30mins, they are much improved.
Hi! Awesome video, thanks! Question, all double blip videos I come over are by people riding two-strokes. Is there a specific reason for this or is this technique just as doable on a smaller capacity four-stroke?
Excellent video! I really enjoyed the editing when you talked about hitting your tire in the same spot each time. Well done!! If you need me, ill be out counting my 💯 attempts. 💪😃👍
I always feel uneasy smashing into obstacles. I definitely don't have the consistency down and 4 times out of 5, I smash something I didn't mean to. I know that in enduro you have to commit and that the bike is built to take some abuse, but is there a way to get over this mental reluctance?
There’s a lot of things we can do. Mental stuff is always dependent on your level of riding. I’d need to see where you’re at so I can implement drills that will increase your confidence. I’d say if your not 100% with obstacles there is something we need to work on before we tackle a double blip. Clutch control, balance, both? Could be any number of things.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto Yes, clutch control and balance is what I work at most, it doesn't require commitment (except training getting to balance point quick) and it helps with the racetrack as well. Good to know I'm on the right track :) . Your videos are great.
I’m inspired! Thank you! I find my clutch finger getting tired quickly when doing drills, and I don’t have the same level of control when using two fingers. I noticed you were using middle finger? Just preference?
But.. I was told that if I believe in myself I can do anything. I went up to this huge log and revved it like I meant it and dropped the clutch like a microwaved burrito...
I'm on a similar learning curve , placing the front wheel below the lip of the obstacle is what seems 'wrong' , I've had a few tries where I got it sort of right , then got surprised mid maneuver. Well, the practice continues. Finding the right selection of obstacles is useful to help build confidence - big rocks with square edges are a bit intimidating .
@@spatchist the whole loading the flywheel thing is mighty handy on those ledges, especially if you can't double blip. I think the double blip is imperative when the ledges are undercut.
Paraphrasing: "You tried 10 times, it didn't work out so great, then you went for a ride. Now you're wondering why you still can't do the skill." Describes me perfectly. And yeah: ouch. But I needed the harsh medicine to cure the pain. I'm sure I'm not alone. Thanks tons, Doc.

Excellent video! I really enjoyed the editing when you talked about hitting your tire in the same spot each time. Well done!!
If you need me, ill be out counting my 💯 attempts. 💪😃👍
How often do you have to replace your clutch? I’ve been practicing and burnt out my clutch.
Can you double blip on a heavy Honda CFR250L?
Thnks !❤
Haha, ouch dude. But you're not wrong! I'll try harder!
I always feel uneasy smashing into obstacles. I definitely don't have the consistency down and 4 times out of 5, I smash something I didn't mean to. I know that in enduro you have to commit and that the bike is built to take some abuse, but is there a way to get over this mental reluctance?
There’s a lot of things we can do. Mental stuff is always dependent on your level of riding. I’d need to see where you’re at so I can implement drills that will increase your confidence. I’d say if your not 100% with obstacles there is something we need to work on before we tackle a double blip. Clutch control, balance, both? Could be any number of things.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto Yes, clutch control and balance is what I work at most, it doesn't require commitment (except training getting to balance point quick) and it helps with the racetrack as well. Good to know I'm on the right track :) . Your videos are great.
@@Dowent Most of my reluctance went away when i switched to mousses
How will this be done on an electric motorcycle no clutch.. I think I keep my gasser.
thank you!
I’m inspired! Thank you! I find my clutch finger getting tired quickly when doing drills, and I don’t have the same level of control when using two fingers. I noticed you were using middle finger? Just preference?
Middle finger feels weird at first but give it a go. Then you can mix it up and last longer.
preference and when you can controll the clutch with both index and middel finger you can switch them up in a ride.
Middle finger is just preference for me I don’t advocate for one or the other. Whatever you decide stick with it so you gain the dexterity and muscle!
Do we have to have a golden retriever to do it?
:)
Even Mark wants to learn this 😂
Do you actually have to stay on the bike for the double blip to count, guess that would be called the "Ghost DB".
😂😂
But.. I was told that if I believe in myself I can do anything. I went up to this huge log and revved it like I meant it and dropped the clutch like a microwaved burrito...
seriously, i feel like i owe you money 🤟
Please share!! 🙌
Dog: "wtf r u dooin hooman"...
Guess I'll be contacting you in 1000 blips. Let the countdown begin! 🤪
I’ll be waiting!
I'm on a similar learning curve , placing the front wheel below the lip of the obstacle is what seems 'wrong' , I've had a few tries where I got it sort of right , then got surprised mid maneuver. Well, the practice continues. Finding the right selection of obstacles is useful to help build confidence - big rocks with square edges are a bit intimidating .
@@spatchist the whole loading the flywheel thing is mighty handy on those ledges, especially if you can't double blip. I think the double blip is imperative when the ledges are undercut.
the best explanation ever!!! ... thanks bro.. guess my 10-12 reps will not get me anywhere... hahahaha
Hammer down!
Sh.t what it takes is hard work AND patience.....
