Ryan says:

Trials have always been my passion and my livelihood. Throughout the years, I have learned so much, and I became a six-time National Champion and then a teacher. I love sharing my knowledge, techniques, and experiences, as well as riding trials and meeting new people to encourage and help them become better riders, whether they ride a Trials motorcycle, an Enduro motorcycle, or any motorcycle. I enjoy supporting the motorcycle community and its clubs. I have perfected my trials schools over the past 35 years, teaching all around North America. My trials schools cover every technique needed to become a champion.

I will be covering over 20 techniques that are highly well-broken down, methodically taught, instructed, and demonstrated. It is a step-by-step process, working your way from the basics to the most advanced techniques. I will watch you perform each technique taught and critique you so you get a better understanding of the technique and performance. My trials schools have produced many National Champions in different classes. I’m looking forward to teaching the next champion!

Ryan Young, featured instructor for Trials Training Days 2010

RYP-advanced-dvd-sshot One of the featured instructors for the 2010 Trials Training Days (TTD) is 6-time US National Champion Ryan Young, head honcho at Ryan Young Products.

Ryan’s latest DVD is Advanced Trials Training Techniques and he has a trailer video on the order page for it. (You can see in this screenshot that parts of the DVD were filmed at the TTC. That’s the TTC lodge in the background.)

RyanYoung-video-sshot

Ryan and other instructors will be on hand during the TTD weekend to work with riders on these same advanced techniques.

RyanYoung-video-sshot2If those techniques too advanced for you, no worries.  Ryan’s 2004 DVD, Trials Training Techniques covers the basics, for beginners to experts. He’s got a trailer video for this DVD, too.

Ryan and the other instructors for Trials Training Days 2010 will be teaching the full range of trials techniques presented on this DVD, too.

Sooooooo…

Trials Comp Feb 09 coverI just got the Oct. 2009 issue of Trials Competition News and it contains the lesson I’ve been waiting for: Splatter! 

I’m going to learn to splatter as soon as I get a little older.

Here’s our blurb about the series from our TTC How To Ride/Tutorials page.

Trials Competition Newspaper has been publishing The Trials Technique of Ryan ry-lesson1-sshotYoung series of motorcycle trials tutorials beginning in the Feb, 2009 issue of Trials Comp.

No, digital versions of the tutorials are NOT available here or anywhere else on the internet. The various authors/contributors/owners of that content are still working on the best way to make it available beyond publication in Trials Competition Newspaper.

  • Feb. 2009: Lesson 1 – Stance
  • Mar. 2009: Lesson 2 – Balance
  • Apr. 2009: Lesson 3 – Wheelie
  • May. 2009: Lesson 4 – Bunny Hop
  • Jun. 2009: Lesson 5 – Turns
  • Jul. 2009: Lesson 6 – Floaters
  • Aug. 2009: Lesson 7 – Flip Turn
  • Sep. 2009: Lesson 8 – Roll Up
  • Oct. 2009: Lesson 9 – Splatter

The introduction:
