Good morning, everybody. As you know, I did a breakdown on Jett Lawrence and the rest of the field because, again, he's leading the championship and I've got a lot of requests and things to do to do one on Eli. But I watched Washougal again last night and wow, wow. Those two guys, Eli and Chase, man, those dude are hauling ass.
I don't think I've ever seen anybody ride motorcycles as fast as they have. Yes, the equipment is better than it's ever been, but that the technique and everything is going right now, the speed that they're going is it's almost like it's almost like a moto GP, you know what I mean? Just attraction. They're getting the momentum, they're holding to the lines that they're setting up.
It's it's amazing. So let me break this down. So you look at Eli, you look at Chase, you start with Chase. Chase is so soft on the motorcycle, so patient on the motorcycle. Every bump that he hits, you can just see the body, you know, just, you know, I guess move with whatever that bike is doing, whatever the track is giving to the bike.
There's just such a softness. There's almost a patience to him and there's a smoothness to him with the throttle and all that. I think the bike is working really well. May be probably the best right now is suspension wise, but how is he doing that? I feel that's all through technique because in that class he has the best technique of everybody.
He's on his toes, his hips, his back, his arms. Everything is in a position to allow his body to work at his optimum, at the strongest, most stable, most coordinated, most efficient position. Because if you're going to do something so dynamic as motocross, well, then you better be in the best position. Just like if you want to go fast as they are, you better have your bike set up and balance.
Right. So that is one thing I see with Chase, with Eli. He's just more Alpha, man. He's just more alpha, you know what I mean? I mean, you just see it in his ride. It's like, that's Alpha man and then kind of beta men and just he is on the gas. He is so damn aggressive. But why can you do that?
One is because of strength. He has the fitness that he has now, the confidence that he has the years and years and years of doing what he's done for so long at such a level has made it just instinctual to know what when he gets on the gas, what's coming next? Yes, that bike is working. Really well for him also.
But with Eli, you see, you know, he has he's on his toes, his hips are out, his back is straight arms. Everything is is good, but he does have a little bit of a top to him when he's riding a little bit tight. And you seen it in the past and I've talked to him before, is like when he when he hunches and rounds a little bit, you know, he struggles a tad when he lengthens out on the motorcycle, chest up, hips out.
He's unbeatable. So but the thing is, is what questions me is and I've been the same when I battled with Browny and Langston and Lampson and, you know, all these guys, it's like when we're going for the championship and anybody's going for the championship, can all of a sudden bring that pace to a new level, to a completely new level?
I mean, there being these guys by 40 seconds, which in the beginning of the year, whatever it was, neck and neck. And why is that? Because they're battling for a championship. And so when that happens, you can bring your ability to a whole new level. But my question is as well, why can't we do that all the time then?
Why only when it comes to this point, what is it? You get more focus. You know, the fear of failure maybe goes away because you have to ride at this level, you have to perform at this level. But so it's kind of a strange thing and it's cool watch. But what I see with those two guys is they're so strong in the bike, they're loose on the bike, they're flowing on the bike where if you drop back in again at Washougal, not the beginning of the year because that was the past and not in the future.
But right now that's all I'm talking about, as you see. Dungey. Dungey has you were neck brace forever. Sorry, but it is what it is and you'll see every time he lands there is a bend in the knees and then a sit, even though his hips are out a little bit. He talks a little bit, but there's always a bend in the knees anytime he lands hard.
Your ability to break down the subtle movements that lead to the flow that everyone wants but they don’t seem to be able to call on at will is amazing. Thank You for sharing it with us.
GOD BLESS YOU 🙏❤️💪🤔😁
What if he is just guessing? What if Weegee has better riding advise?
lol
But seriously,---why does a failed actor from 2012 have the main microphone in this sport?
I'm thinking that Eli knows that chase and himself feed off of each other's energy on the track .
And by both riders knowing that it allows them both to push each other to their maximum limits on the track and it somehow gets themselves to tap into that
ATHLETES ZONE of perfection !
Watching These two race against each other is a complete thrill to witness and like you said they are riding on a whole different skill level of motocross racing !
"When Eli Twists it he Twists it." Thanks for breaking it down for us Ryno!
My body was tired,so it threw me on the ground, Hilarious!
Keep in mind when you are talking about getting beat by 40-50 seconds...thats just 3rd place....Lol.
Isn’t that just mind blowing hahahah
Hey you Ladies and Germs, see that #12 red, white and blue Honda gear in the glass case to Ryno's left? That's his year 2000 Motocross Des Nations gear where Ryno and two other guys ended Team America's 3 year loss streak and WON that baby, brought the Chamberlain Trophy home! Ryan, what is that hat you're wearing? RYNO POWER? Is that your company?! RAD. Oh yea, the "other two guys" on Team America that year were Ricky Carmichael and Travis Pastrana, you may have heard of them.
I love AP but you nailed it with the floppy, been noticing something jelly like out there. “Keep on rockin’ in the free world Ryno!”
Fantastic........... Please do more of these!!!
The traction and momentum ELI gets is truly impressive.....would hate to behind that rear wheel, lol
Yamaha YZ450Fs are bad ass. Tryin get a '22 now. Hard to find.
Solid my man no bullshit and or punches pulled. You know all the riders are watching ya!
Thx ryno, enjoy learning, keep teaching
Great break Ryno ! Have a fabulous weekend ✌️❤️
Thanks RYNO! Good breakdown analysis.
Volume much better for me this time. Don't know what you did, but it worked. Thanks
Very interesting information Ryan, thanks!...🕺👍
Best analysis and commentary ever Ryan
God bless you brother great content and your teachings have helped me ride faster and more safe at 38 then I did at 21 love you man
Spot on
Masterful analysis, Hughes is one of the most competent people out there In all aspects of life !! Waylon Rocks and so does his grandson Struggle !!
Your spot on
Always good stuff from the Rino
Awesome lessons and discussion. 👍
Right on Ryan! Great breakdown, from a 61 year oldman.
Awesome video technique creates Speed love it
From someone who watched "the Great Outdoors 2" dozens of times in their early's teens back then, you yourself had some respectable technique Ryno.
Your insight is well appreciated
Love the breakdown analysis perfect niche for a action sport legend, would like to see a video about some of the techniques that can be taken from gncc and off-road racing and if they can be applied in moto
Great video, kick ass shirt!
I've been training my soon with your technic. It works well for fast trail riding. He is 11 went from a cluthless 110 to a xr250r. He is so fast I can't let him go ahead anymore. We have been riding the desert all summer with no injuries. Thank you and hope to cross paths.
Anderson looks like he is working on his form and Craig is nice.
Good points man
Thoroughly enjoyed your break down! I think you are spot on!
Nice analysis. Young man dancing on there limits and beyound. So wild. No need for war anymore.
ET3 is the real deal. #3 or #4 most won races etc. He will go dwn in the history books. Keep doin what your doin Ryno! I'm a 90s racer too.. from Esst Coast. 👍
Agreed , I was a little bit tentative with et jumping on the yz at the same time I was thinking, ok now we’re going to see it’s full potential .
Also agree with you on chase , I love his technique of blowing through rhythm sections like they didn’t exist.
Top dogs
Glad you are doing well!
great content!
Your 100% right about the inability , or rather refusal of our sport to instill the TECHNICAL/ANALYTICAL breakdown of techniques and how it corresponds to speed or results.
I agree with you sure the equipment always progressing , however we can agree the difference from say a 1995 to 2005 factory machine vs 2005 to 2025 is not an apples to apples comparison . The TECHNIQUE however in those same time periods is.
You are carrying the torch on this , keep up the good work
Chase is like Bailey, Eli like Hannah! Respect to veteran riders still involved in our beloved sport. Excellent breakdown. 🤙🏻❤️🇺🇸🤘🏻
Right on Ryan! Great breakdown
Well, you aint lying.
Great job Ryno. Constructive criticism is something missing these days. You do a good job walking that line similar to Ricky. Whenever I hear breakdowns from others the compliments and respect are often missing. Can you slow down and anyalyze a start or two? Talk about blocks vs no blocks, diffent gear starts, bike performance etc
Yes i would be interested in learning about that part of racing
That would be awesome. I struggle a little in these departments
"I don't need no trainer. I don't need anybody telling what to do and how to do it."
One of the best quotes in the history of the sport, and JMB agrees I bet. :)
I will never forget that quote Ryan man.
Oh yea. That is my way of claiming Rob Beems is a snake oil salesman, (who did not finish his degree). Easy prey for those guys, this sport.
Ride the bike,dont let it ride you!.
Love these keep doing it u should be one of the guys that analyze
Interesting stuff. From what I have observed, your analysis of what these riders are doing seems spot on. I like the way you put things and you really sound like you know your stuff. Great content. You have a new subscriber.. Now churn out some more content and videos for me to watch. Hurry up.
👏👏👏🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💯
Thanks for the breakdown and your insight!!🤙
Another theory I have is about RC. When he started getting fast in grade school, the bullies stopped picking on him. That is why he was "Terrified to lose".
We know all those short fat red head freckled ginger kids got picked on.
I say "school bullies", motivated RC to be the GOAT. Interesting enough? :)
I always thought gymnastics or trampoline work outs would be a perfect fit for MXers to learn how to tuck and roll when bailing off the bike.
My biggest take-away from this is that shirt exists and I want it.
Hey Ryan I’ve noticed Plessinger rides different since leaving Yamaha and not as fast or consistent. Is that from how the new bike handles or someone else training him?
He’s probably not comfy with the ktm
Nobody seems to be other than dungy lately.
I likew it new sub! Like toggle smashed.
Man, u r just awesome 🤙🏿
Ryno your analysis are really deep, I love this content, I Always learn something and I am grateful for that, thank you for sharing.
It could be interesting that you talk about Musquin, he had an incredible technique but didn t have the opportunity to really make a breakthrough with it, if you see what I mean, it could be interesting so to share your point of view, maybe his mindset, maybe the little lack of techniques..
I ride and I have experienced the good and bad days which I believe is controlled by my mind! Clear mind = single purpose and no conscious fear! Meditation and Conditioning is key!
You are 110% Correct Professor Rino
This is great 👍
I’ve always been crazy but it’s kept me from going insane
I realized that so much with my riding alway gotta be offensive when riding
Rhino would be the best color commentator since David Bailey if he was ever to call a race.
Jason Anderson and Justin Barcia technique breakdown!
Great break down.
I would love to see one of these on Ricky Carmichael
A fun consideration is Tomacs astrological sign is a Scorpio. His riding reflects those characteristics
Agree with everything you say except one thing, I’ve been studying dungey a bit this year and his sit down early cornering technique is incredibly fast and safe, reliable, if his front slips out he can catch it with his foot which others who are standing more ( like sexton ) go down.
I wish sexton would sit down a bit more in the corners cos he wouldn’t fall at all, brill to watch this mx seasons racing 👏
Eli corner speed is insane.. he comes in faster and exits faster.. road course cars are set up for the corner before the longest straight away for a reason.. Eli eats time up by sending it thru the rough shit and corners.. on top of never lifting the throttle on a 450.. it’s called beast mode for a reason lol
I remember watching Damon Bradshaw land hard from jumps. He would cock his head up as he it the ground, as if he was landing so hard that his head wanted to pivot down, and he was forcing it the other way. Have you ever noticed that? I never landed hard enough to need to try it. :)
I have been so pessimistic about the sport today and for good reason, but I actually think we have a shot at the MXofN victory at Red Bud, (which I will not make the short 4 hour drive I have done many many times in the past,--because it is too expensive over night, and the entire area of lodging joined the fun. The FIM must be soaking them for a million or more bucks.), with Chase, Eli and Justin Cooper, (who will be going, trust me. And he will do great.).
But even though I think they have the talent to beat the best in Europe this year,---they only have about 15 guys on the MXGP starting gate, so the worst we can do is 6th. lol
Thanks for the break down. Can you please do some of the riders that just aren’t “making it”, they are always in the top 5 not winning. And maybe the champions from other years.
Ryan watch some World Cup downhill mountain biking one of the the things that have evolved quicker than moto is body position probably because lack of seat and bike to squeeze but their hip hinge and body position is very developed and very controlled. Two wheels is two wheels and it’s obvious.
I never broke a bone from motocross, and what I teach riders, to try to replicate that, is to follow a simple rule: never ride faster than you can control ☝ that means never 101%. And if you're really good you can win at 99% like Dungey or Herlings. And BTW Herlings admitted he likes going 110% which clearly cost him a few easily won championships at his 95% 🏆 Love your videos and wisdom Ryan but I think it's more productive in this to use this approach regarding why some people crash more than others.
You need to get a good mic brother. Up the prod. value. Love u
RHINO 🤘🏻🙂
Ryan man, I have a theory and I wonder what you think about it. I like to use JMB as an example, (the best in the world in 1991, and made it look easy), but I know there are others, like Lechien all the way back to Joel Roberts. Some guys get very smooth, and they do not do much "off the bike" training. They rode a lot, (and Lechien did not even do much of that for a time because he had that much talent, (best in the world in at least one race). My theory is, "When they got tired, they simply figured they were doing something wrong and were successful in correcting their riding style to be effortless, which translated to speed. They did not train much. They got that way somehow, and I can see that method working. What do you think?
Mr.H I'm a big fan . Grew up in sm next to carlsbad. My friends and I were racing in the late 80s to mid 90s. I was little and and in escondido Kawasaki one day to buy,an kx 80. I was with my dad, and you with yours. My dad is named Gearge, and I hope with all due respect. I believe your dad was named Gearge, R.I.P.. my pops is a ibew journeymen wiremen and that he recognized this man. Your dad, I knew who you were cuz I was 14 yes old wathin you fuckin railing like no other at barona Carlsbad.,etc. So my dad talks to your pops and next thing I know I going home with a 125cc. Your dad had explained to mine that I would be growing being a little freshman in high school. And that the 80 would be useless in 6 months to a year. My mom was pissed, but you and your dad were 100 percent right. So I just wanted to say thanks and wanted to know if your dad was a wiremen or not. And love your channel your mantra your vibe. And to tell you are a goat to me. You bring up essential commonsense topic s. That everybody else misses, you give this knowledge whole heartedly. You obviously love n care for the sport and I think everybody that throws there leg over dirtbike,would be safer n faster with some of your do s n does not s.. in there helmet head. Thanks for being humble accessible and being yourself . I wish we could hear you in the booth on any sunday. Imagine if they talked technic instead of who sponsored by who or won what. Most demanding sport on the planet and one of the worst on your body. There's alot of life left after 30 yrs old no sat nite lites. What will they do with there's. Keep it up man you inspire me to get by body n mind in shape and in time with each other, let's face it that's the only way to know yourself. You are like the dr. Phil of motocross jk... lol n thanks
Fact: The tracks are about 30% faster with the faster 4-stroke engines. The lap times show it of course.
Eli's riding to me is poetry in motion and you nailed it Ryan, he is Alpha! I'm tired of hearing about Chase's perfect riding style. Chase is awesome, but no one is talking about the number one most important thing "THE MIND!" Eli has the mind of a champion. Chase has the mind of a choker. I've seen him choke over and over because you have to have a mind of a champion if you're going to be a champion at that level.
That will come with time. ET did his fair share of choking but with experience comes the ability to always know where the razor's edge is. Chase will get there. He's the only one Even close to ET right now.
Always learn something when u talk
Great breakdown. Ryan, got a question, how many times did you win the kawasaki balance challenge at Ponca City?
Ryno I must say, I swapped to the TP199 knee guards. So much better being able to feel the bike!
Ryno is it possible for anyone to be a champion?
Eli's outdoor motocross riding style is poetry in motion and that's why he's so dominant in motocross. I'm sick of hearing how pretty Chase's riding style is, and what you should be talking about is how Eli has a mind of a champion and Chase has a mind of a choker. I've watched both riders, even when they were on minibikes, and Eli has always had a mind of a champion, and has that spectacular ability to keep it together in the most thick of all things. Meanwhile, I've watched Chase throw many motos away, even when he had long leads and also blowing regular races that didn't count. The mind is where it's at, regardless of pretty style. If your mind isn't 'championess' you will not make it to be a "true champion", especially at this level. Every single dominant sports player has a mind of a champion (Tom Brady, Michael Jordan, Mohamed Ali, etc. etc. etc.). Real champions have an ability to take things to a totally different level leaving others behind. Never underestimate the importance of the mind when dealing with true champions.
Appreciate your lessons, etc., but a different mic system/placement would make them even better.
It would be nice if you had a microphone, it'd hard to hear you.
Please, teach Herlings...
Can I help you with CZcams… I do social media management, basically I clean up and make them look more representative of your brand and it’s quality. You are one in a billion of a person. Your coaching is next level. Just think you need a tiny bit of help with the set up, camera quality, sound and just thumbnails, tags alone need to be cleaned! Just a thought, I’d do it for free especially for you and all you’ve done for me as a rider and fan
Please let him know I can help if y’all can. I’d love this channel to be the next moto hot spot for tech and coaching. I see a future of him having a full app and website with weekly training and tracking progression. Plus private classes all over the world done by streaming to your app.
Email resume, and channels you’ve (IG, TT, YT, etc…) grown and other pertinent info to booking@iamryno.com #chargelife
Thanks for the info!!!
@@hung8969 that is awesome of ya to offer and Ryan to accept it's all valid points and indeed with proper help the channel would surpass many!! Unfortunately with CZcams you have to make things shiney to get them away from the masses of vids uploaded
Eli has a weakness, (but I have not seen it on the Yamaha). He is sensitive, (hippy parents in CO.). If he gets bumped, he has had the habit of slowing down. So Chase could take advantage of that weakness,----and bump him. Just apologize, and do it again. :)
Oh man, I missed it. Apologize with a flower,----and do it again. lol
Привет, Сёма
Like
Decades of lifting and its more about your recovery for sure.
That’s exactly what I said at the beginning of season. Even though chase is larger human and great on the bike. You just look at eli and you see a man on the bike. But yes he is a man against children mentally and physically. Chase may edge eli out but I don’t see it. Not this year.
How do they exceed others in their field?
They have good fathers and they trust and believe in their fathers.
Father and son, pals forever.
Their fathers are their coaches. Who else is there?
Periodization:
could it be that only Chase's dad and Eli's dad have built progresstion into their maintenance phase?
If anything chase is alpha, he's new to the 450 game and still beating the best of eli 🤷
The race bikes are too fast for the tracks these days. JUMP, JUMP, JUMP with those 50hp 4Ts - it's boring and dangerous at the same time. Outdoor 125 2T MX and 250 2T road racing is the best for riders and fans.
I say Chase "Broke" Eli in that last moto. Now Chase knows he can win, and Eli knows Chase can beat him. Beating Eli heads up is one thing, but Eli quit in the last 2 laps and dropped off the pace he needed to win. It sure would have been better racing if there was a couple of passes made though, instead of being the fastest parade on earth.
theres a big thing your missing.. focus ..all these guys doing vlogs and merch.... in 250 class ,trying to be rockstars before the get results..why aint merican 250 guys performing? no consistency..?
How about calling Chase an Omega man. I don't look at him as a Beta man.
He's only at that level because Eli has elevated him to it though. I don't think he would have gotten there on his own. He's following an alpha. Good analysis by Rino.
If everyone just listen to this hombree.... everyone would be champions.....not
