Skill specific camps are what they sound like and emphasize skills such as Wheel Lifts, Drops, Cornering, etc., but always call into play the whole body of mountain bike knowledge to execute more safely and reliably. You can’t “only” learn drops without learning pressure control, wheel lifts, speed judgement, etc. as well. Safety is always our number one priority and we’re not here to help you “check a box” at the risk of injury or setting up false expectations. That is why we have camp prerequisites in place. These camps go beyond the “intro” level and will dive deeper into variations of the skill and give you the opportunity for extending your experience as your skill consolidation increases.

Cornering happens, but for a lot of us, some corners can be stressful and disappointing. It’s not like a big log that you can dismount and walk over, we feel obligated to just suffer through it and hope the next one is somehow better. After this half-day camp you will look to the next corner with gleeful anticipation! When you learn the range of techniques and how to apply them to different cornering situations, your cornering experience goes from dread to shred!

Some people know how to do one type of wheel lift, but most of us don’t have proficiency in all 4 of the basic types of wheel lifts. The lift you might use to get over a large rock on an uphill climb probably isn’t the same one you’d want to use to keep your front wheel out of a puddle on a fast downhill. This half-day camp covers the four basic lifts and the very different techniques used to execute them and how they apply to many various trail situations.

Why do people say they like riding rocky trails?? Are they just masochists (maybe, lol), or do they know something we don’t? In this half-day camp we break down the different challenges that rocks provide and learn some techniques to turn those challenges into creative riding opportunities. You may even find some flow in the rocks by the end of camp!
