The session started as usual with the skills checks where I
discovered that I mainly had to work on looking and body positioning. Everyone
quickly understood what was needed, and after some set up changes, we moved
onto the drop technique. Here I gave everyone a mental skills set in which to
use in their riding, and soon everyone was riding off a drop of their choice
with more confidence and control than ever before, some feeling air beneath
their wheels for the first time. We then done a little bit of work on
cornering, and then linked drops into corners, so they could practise their new
found techniques. We then moved onto the tabletop, where I controlled
everyone’s speed individually in order to give them the speed they needed in
order to jump a given distance. We then moved onto the pump and jump trail
where they now had to pump through a number of sections and had to gain their
own speed to be able to jump. Our session finished with everyone riding the
trail top to bottom, choosing whether to pump, jump and some even began to
manual through the sections.
Great session guys!
Tony and Nath.
