Progressive Method MTB Jump 101 Clinic

MTB Jump 101

TBA

Houston, TX

Build confidence and comfort getting in the air and make it a repeatable skill. We cover and build all the necessary skills to get ready to jump including wheelie, bunny hop, and manual.

Learn key jumping, landing, and safety skills to feel confident for a successful jump and landing. We will move through pivotal mountain bike progressions to improve your skills and technique to help understand what it takes to make a successful jump. First, we will start with the basics; lifting your wheels (wheelie), bunny hops, and, moving through progressions of weighting and un-weighting over a jump. We will review the anatomy and types of a jump, discuss variables of a landing and practice using compression for height and distance and proper weight transfer timing.

The goal of the 101 clinic is for you to successfully jump a Hopper tabletop and progress to a moderate (4 to 5 foot gap) and land safely with confidence. You are encouraged to learn at your own pace in a fun, safe, and unintimidating environment of this clinic. You will leave understanding the mechanics of jumping your bike and have a clear picture of what it takes to progressively move through a jump. After this clinic, you will have the skills to practice and attend the 201 clinic to continue your progression. Sign up today!

We utilize adjustable MTB Hopper ramps and Landwave Ramps (tabletop) so that we progress based on the comfort level of attendees.
