About This Adventure

Join fellow mountain biking enthusiasts for an exhilarating clinic that dives into advanced skills like pressure control and timing. Experience thrilling jumps, drops, and technical features on the trails, while enjoying camaraderie with new friends. Conquer challenges and refine your techniques, all culminating in a celebratory post-ride gathering.

The intermediate/advanced clinic we start to explore more advanced mountain bike skills such as pressure control and timing & coordination.

Join other participants and your Dynamic Cycling Coaches the evening before every clinic at a local venue for a meet and greet.

Sunday Morning:##

TIME TO GET OUR WHEELS OFF THE GROUND. We will focus on managing and actively responding to pressures from the terrain (compressing) as well as proper timing & coordination by going through a proper jump and drop progression including:

Proper techniques for front, rear, level wheel lifts, and more. Learn how to properly clear (up to) a 6-foot gap jump. Learn how to go off (up to) a 4-foot drop. In addition you will learn how to conquer large rock rollers, properly ride a rock garden, wheel lift over rocks/logs, ride a skinny, and more.

Sunday Afternoon:##

WE TAKE IT TO THE TRAILS!! Time to get ‘poppy and playful’.

We take our new found compression and absorbing skills to the trails; hitting ‘bump’ jumps and sessioning features like rock rollers, jumps, drops, rock gardens skinnies and more.

We finish back at the parking lot to wrap up our day and enjoy a post ride beverage with our new riding buddies.

*On trail coaching and sessioning is dependent on the trail network and features available.
