Drops and Jumps Course

26/09/2019 by Geoff Fox

Introduction to Drops and Jumps

Saturday 12th October 2019

8:00am – 12:00pm

New Pine Forest, Howard Springs

DORC will be conducting a half day MTB skills course for beginner to intermediate riders who would like to ride smoother, faster and with more control and confidence.

This course will be run by qualified instructors from PMBIA (Professional Mountain Bike Instructors Association) and MTBA (Mountain Biking Australia).

During this course you will learn how to:

Use your body position and balance to get more from your bike.

Learn how to negotiate drops and jumps smoothly and confidently.

With the use of training aids like the MTB Hopper ramps, we can successfully transition you from riding small drops and jumps to hitting bigger ramps and gaps for more air time. Once you are confidently riding the ramps, we can take your new found ability out onto the trails.

This course is for riders who feel that they are ready and confident to improve their riding skills, are ready to have both wheels in the air and start taking drops and jumps.

Riders wishing to attend this course must be over 18 years of age and be members of DORC/MTBA.

This course will cost $50 per person with all proceeds going to DORC.

Places are limited to 8 riders.
