Intermediate Jumps/Drops Skills Session

Intermediate Jumps & Drops Skills Session This session is designed for riders who are already comfortable with the fundamentals of jumping and drops and are looking to improve consistency, confidence, and control across a wider range of features. Using our purpose built jump line, MTB Hopper ramps, and suitable trail features, riders will develop their technique through a series of progressive exercises focused on generating speed, improving bike movement, and riding features more efficiently and confidently. The session focuses on refining existing skills and helping riders understand how to adapt their technique to different jump shapes, sizes, speeds, and trail situations. Riders will learn how to: ● Maintain strong, dynamic riding positions through take off, flight, and landing ● Generate and control lift using effective body movements ● Adjust technique for different jump and drop types ● Manage speed and timing for improved consistency ● Stay balanced and composed when linking multiple features together ● Absorb terrain effectively while maintaining flow and momentum ● Improve confidence when riding larger or more technical features IMPORTANT – JUMPS & DROPS All features remain optional, and riders will never be required to attempt anything they are not comfortable with. Coaches will work with individuals to ensure progression remains appropriate to their ability and confidence levels.
