Finally, the Evening We've All Been Waiting For: Introduction to Jumps and Drops!

Get ready to take your riding skills to the next level with an exciting evening focused on jumps and drops!

We’ll begin by warming up with a review of wheel lifts and transitioning into wheel lifts at speed, followed by practicing bump jumps.

Roll Downs:
We’ll kick things off with my drop box, using it to practice rolling the bike down obstacles. This exercise will help you tackle similar challenges you'll encounter on the trails of DuPont and Pisgah, building your confidence and control while descending.

Drops:
Next, we’ll increase our focus on drops. Using my drop box, you’ll adjust your speed to explore different techniques for riding drops of all sizes. We’ll dive into discussions about when and why to adjust your approach, making sure you understand the finer points of safely and efficiently handling drops.

Bump Jumps:
We’ll take things up a notch by using my stunts to practice bumping both wheels over obstacles with a wheel lift. This technique is key for clearing smaller obstacles in a controlled, smooth way.

Jumps:
Finally, we’ll get airborn! Using my jump ramp, you’ll practice jumping both wheels off the ground. This segment will help you build skill, comfort, and control while flying through the air, boosting your confidence in your ability to clear jumps with precision.
