Limit 4 riders
$210 p.p
(includes post ride beer or drink and snacks)

An intermediate level of confidence is required for this course.
Best done on a Dual suspension bike.
Learn some simple techniques in a safe progressive manner that will have you launching off everything on your next trail ride.

Do you want to learn how to jump safely and confidently?

Here is the course for you. This clinic is specifically designed for the more advanced rider who wants to get more confidence or learn how to jump and take Drop Off's.

Norm Douglas has been jumping bikes since he was 9 years old. He can show you how to remove the fear and do it safely and with confidence.

What you Won't Learn:

• You won't learn how to "Boost" at jumps Parks
• You won't learn how to do a "bar spin"
• And you definately won't learn how to do a "tail whip"

What you WILL learn:

• How to take hip jumps, gap jumps and drop offs, with SPEED, CONFIDENCE and do it all safely.

We have found the perfect trail to do this on right here in Forrest. Designed by the world renowned trail builder, Glen Jacobs, this trail will leave you with no doubt if you can Jump.

Due to the advanced nature of the trail we will be using, it is expected that you will have a good level of confidence on your bike, and will have a better than average skill level. Further, it is highly recommended that this course only be considered with a DUAL SUSPENSION BIKE.

Take the next step and do our Level 2 course. Even if you don't really want to learn how to "get big air", jumping is a VERY important skill for the more advanced rider, and can often take you to the next level of confidence.
