No matter where you’re at in your mountain bike journey, regardless if
you’re entirely new to mountain biking or if you’ve been riding and racing
at a high level for years, we all have certain skills or areas of our riding
that we struggle with. Be it cornering, jumps, drops, wheelies or even
braking there’s always room to learn something new to help improve in the
areas where you struggle.
Our goal is to help you become the most confident and skilled rider you can
become. Even if that journey only begins with us giving you the tools needed
to work on your skills on your own, we will strive to give you the knowledge
and understanding of the six core skills of mountain biking needed to tackle
any maneuver and ride any trail with more confidence, safety, and
efficiency.
