In the Mountain Bike Techniques class, we teach you everything you need to know to be confident on the trail and have tons of fun. New and experienced riders alike can benefit from a focus on fundamental bike handling. We start with proper balance and efficient body positioning, developing a solid understanding of ranges of motion over the bike and how to apply them. Those skills and movement patterns are blended to create a variety of techniques for braking, climbing, descending, and tight turns. In the second portion of this class we build off of that foundation, adding more cornering skills, developing line selection, a variety of wheel lifts, navigating climbing and descending switchbacks, and roll-downs. Finally, we will work on negotiating trail obstacles using all of those techniques.
Each skill is discussed, demonstrated and then practiced with the instructors. Throughout the class, we’ll take to the trail for real-world practice of the skill.
All day clinic is from 9 AM -4 PM
