If when on your mountain bike you ride sections of trail with the “lets see what happens” approach, or come to a stop because you can’t figure out what’s required to ride a feature, then it’s most definitely time to get some mountain bike coaching to fill in the blanks of your knowledge. Knowing what skills are required at what point on the trail, is paramount to becoming a comfortable and confident rider.
" We breakdown the individual skills, layering them up in a progressive format so they are easy to understand, setting you up for future development and miles of knowledge-based riding. "
Vison - When and where to look to maintain control and speed
Corning - Flat, bermed and tight, while maintaining speed
Advanced braking - Maintaining traction and good body position
Unweighting the bike - To allow the bike to float over obstacles
Effective, efficient climbing - Maintaining grip, power and control on the steepest of ups
Pedal wheelie - Allowing uphill momentum to continue over step ups
Manual front wheel lift - Controlling the front wheel over trail features
"Our coaches use varied coaching techniques throughout the day from demonstrations to pier coaching in order to cater for all learning styles and abilities. "
