Intermediate

Lessons

  • Learn correct body position for descending confidence at higher speeds on more challenging grade 4 trails.

  • Learn how to use the intermediate body position to build speed and confidence in corners.

  • Learn the difference between your front and rear brake and how to use them together for maximum speed control.

  • Learn how to find sections of trail that make braking easier and more effective allowing you and your bike to open up during technical sections.

  • Learn how to scan the trail and find faster lines making technical sections easier and improving exit speed out of corners.

  • Learn how to take your “front wheel lift” and “rear wheel lift” and combine them to lift both wheel in the air at the same time (this skill is needed for jumping).

  • Learn how to take your “bunny hop” learned in the intro to jumping technique and add timing + intention to get some sweet air time.

  • Learn how to angle the bike and use bike-body separation to keep your weight stacked evenly over the tires for maximum grip.

  • Learn how to “whip” the rear of the bike out on jumps. This technique shows comfortability, style, and control when jumping (you must have good jumping technique for this skill).

  • Learn how to lift your front wheel into the air by pedalling and how to hold the front wheel up using momentum and balance.
