It’s all about becoming a more dynamic rider. We start by dialing in the following Fundamental Skills:
-Stability and balance through proper body position & range of motion. -Smooth flowy riding with proper trail braking. -Emergency stopping techniques. -Proper shifting techniques. -Cadence and vision - how to read a trail.
Using these skills we begin to develop maneuvers such as:
-A ‘peek n push’ for use with roll downs -Cornering - we end our morning session on different types of corners; applying the fundamentals we learned.
WE HIT THE TRAILS, practicing what we learned. Sessioning features on trail is essential to becoming a better rider.
We find features that will allow us to further develop our fundamental skills; rock gardens, rock rollers & steeps, technical climbs and descents, and more! We practice cornering on trail: Using the different style corners available we build on our fundamentals, learning how to flow through corners properly braking.
We finish back in the parking lot to wrap up the day. After our wrap up we head back to the meet and greet location to have a toast with our new riding buddies.
*On trail coaching and sessioning is dependent on the trail network and features available.
Focus on foundational skills before tackling more technical terrain.
Tune your bike’s suspension for optimal handling on varied surfaces.
