Downhill Days - Friday Skills Intensives

Lift Access Skills Intensive, Grades 5-12

Build skills and FUNdamentals

 

This Friday summertime full day training program brings athletes to local resorts (e.g Trestle or Granby Ranch) where skill development can be quickly achieved with repetitive practice on challenging terrain. Athletes interested in all disciplines of mountain biking will learn to master the art of descending confidently and safely.  Rides are organized around a progression of skills based on each rider’s ability level and goals. 

 

Equipment Requirements for Downhill Days:

  • Athletes must bring a properly fitting, trail-ready mountain bike with disc brakes in good working condition, a full-face helmet, goggles and protective gear. Bikes, helmets and gear can be rented for an additional charge through the resorts. 
  • Athletes must also bring a comfortable hydration pack or backpack with a water reservoir (e.g. camelback) and enough space to hold snacks, water, a jacket for colder weather conditions, and equipment necessary to change a flat tire and make minor trail-side repairs/adjustments. We also recommend that athletes bring $10 for snack purchases at the resort or ice cream after the ride.
