Who should take this lesson?
This lesson is for riders new to mountain biking or new to lift service bike parks. During the lesson, we will equip you with the fundamental skills to be able to tackle the bike park trails with more confidence, ability, and safety. Trails at the bike park are more difficult than your average beginner trail with steep grades, obstacles like rocks, tree roots, corners, and steps. Arming yourself with the ability to apply proper skills for the terrain makes riding more fun, more safe, and more enjoyable.
Example Topics:
- Equipment orientation and fit
- How to load bikes on the chairlift
- Speed control through effective braking techniques for downhill riding
- Strategies to maintain a centered and stable body position when riding downhill
- Line choice on trail
- Coaching and feedback for individual obstacles and features like rocks, roots, corners, and roll-down drops
- Video analysis for movement patterns, form, and timing
