Technical Descending
£50.00
Learn to tackle the most technical mountain bike terrain in the UK. This course focuses on the techniques to ride technical natural style trails (as opposed to flow trails). It’s also ideal for riders who are looking to improve their results in downhill, enduro and XC racing.
- Cornering with limited grip
- Flow through rough terrain and rock features
- Drops and technical jumps
- Steep trail features
- Discipline specific tactics for cross country, downhill, enduro
Things to consider
You must be able to ride black graded bike park trails, even if you can’t ride all the A-lines.
You’ll need to complete the Core Techniques and Whistlestop Skills courses, or a 1.5 hour private session before signing up (or equivalent with another coach). It will help you get the most out of this course. Get in touch to discuss whether this course is right for you.
This course is suitable for adults and young people over 16. Depending on experience & ability I may be able to allow 11-16yr olds on the course. Please contact me.
