Things to consider

If you cant already jump tabletops bigger than 3 bike lengths, I recommend you attend the confidence & fundamentals course before this course. 9/10 riders who come on this course to learn to jump, lack fundamental skills that hinder progress.

You must be confident at riding red graded trails, and physically fit to ride for a day.

This course is for riders over 16 yrs old.

• A mountain bike in full working order
