Gary got in touch, like many others he’s getting back into mountainbiking and was looking to brush up his skills and get a good base technique moving forward.
We had a bit of a chat to see if there was anything in particular he was after then headed off into the singletrack to start the session. After a brief overview on over and under rotation we started on cornering and introducing the various aspects of footwork, looking and body positioning.
From here we moved on to the berms and looked at cornering techniques, whilst still trying to promote looking further down the trail. Then we moved on to clearing obstacles on the trail and manualling over logs and obstructions, before introducing unweighting and lifting the rear wheel.
Then we topped it off with more singletrack and putting it all into practice. A fun session
