Not sure where these skills would be useful but what they can do is incredible. The last rider, Tony Bou is the GOAT.

I've been a trials fan for decades.
I think the advancements in the bikes (engine tuning; frame materials; tire grip; clutch materials; and weight savings) have really allowed rider skills to move into a new realm.
The technique of rider leaping forward, and then transitioning the CoM (center of mass) ahead by allowing the bike to climb ahead makes for some really mind-blowing abilities. They can literally leap upwards and forwards by 8' or more.

I watch some hard enduro races. They use some trials techniques for the tougher obstacles.
I love watching those guys from time to time. Something I'd never be able to do though.
