I'm an old guy (52) and ride with my new to the sport 15 year old. Mostly ride two track and some single track. I've learned more from your channel than most of the other I watch. Really enjoy your content. We didn't have this knowledge when I learned to ride, I'm trying to break my old habits and setup my backyard with some training obstacles practicing the techniques you've shown us. I'll never do the stuff you do, but some of the techniques you use for training helps for all around trail riding.

I haven't watched anything the IRC tire guy doesn't do well. All his videos have great information and tips. Since I am too am a 65 y/o chiropractor, I understand the need of balancing 40 pounds of extra gear versus passing out in a hare scramble. The mobius braces are excellent tools for me providing great ROM vs protection vs weight. Thanks for the recommendation of other gear and I look forward to future videos.

Camando is the best. It allows the twig and berries to act as a counterweight when going over obstacles.😂

The classic bright out of place Rich Larson helmet I love it🤘🤘 🔥

Thank you. Always interested in seeing people’s setup. I’ve seen you with the Fanny pack style USWE drink system and I really like the way it’s off of your back. Thinking of trying this out. Keep the sweat from building, and show off the Team USA colors in Spain in October!

What about chest protector? I find the under jersey
compression style to be critical. The number of times it’s saved my shoulder and elbows is countless.

You ever try Forma boots? I've had 3 different models and they all fit the same which I appreciate. The soles have the most traction I have seen which is essential here on Kauai

[bradywebb]

Quality gear is a MUST!! I also never ride without elbow guards...

currently watching this with a scaphoid fracture i thought the same exact thing also pretty much did the exact same thing was in a cast for 3 months didn't heal and then had to have the exact same surgery you explained in the video definitely going to invest in some wrist braces after that

[drdonfunke]

It’s interesting that I started out wearing all the protection I could find (60 yo chiropractor). Sometimes I would get so hot I would crash more often due to fatigue. I still wear a lot but have put away the padded shorts and have been wearing a neck brace less frequently. I wear the mobius wrist braces all the time. Wrists are easy to break and take forever to heal.

Sick helmet. Gotta try some of that Phase gear.

[Junmarvi]

Wow!! Rich I will consider these brands.. next year. Thank you

I used Asterisk Cell knee braces for a long time but they were a bit bulky. Then I had my knees checked and turned out that my knees were very different and off the shelf braces didn't fit well enough. Now I have CTi Custom braces and these do not limit my movement on the bike. Maybe in MX you can get away without braces but in hard enduro you fall over and the bike falls on you or you get the leg stuck between a rock or a stump and the bike - not a nice feeling without braces.

Great vid on the gear. How about mental prep before a ride with friends or competition? Aside from mentally preparing with the self reminder to go over the fundamentals which you shared I like reminding myself to have a great time. What goes through your head before a ride?
Love the videos, keep them coming! 👊🏽✊🏽🤘🏽

Who got that scaphoid fracture? Give a thumb up!

[bpdono]

Thanks for the helmet recommendation! I've been looking for a lighter weight motocross helmet to wear on my e-bike which is just as fast in the woods as I don't think a mountain biking helmet is sufficient.

[pseunoxy]

Why aren’t you wearing any chest protection?

[utahdesertrider]

I go flexibility- boots, girdle with pads in it, knee pads. Gloves, helmet. Yes backpack, water, tools etc

[kimberblake]

Just getting into this sport. Got lucky and a friend gifted me his like new 2003 xr400r. Going through it and replacing all the wear items. Would love to know what tools or items for break/fix you carry.

I hadn't considered wrist braces, but thinking about a lot of times, I've hit the ground, they sound like a good idea. I run crossfire 2 srs's, and really like them, also you can pick up leatt z frame hybrid knee braces cheaper than most anything else comparable, and I've used one for my bad knee while off the bike in just day to day life, and its really pretty good/comfortable.
