Advanced Jumps, Drops & Slabs Women’s Coaching Program

Wondering if this program is the right one for you?

Answering YES to all the questions below means you are in the right place. But if you have any doubts please reach out to us on our contact page!  

✦ I have more than two years of mountain biking experience on varying terrain, riding environments and conditions. I am comfortable and consistent on Black Trails here in Squamish as well as the surrounding areas of Squamish, The North Shore and Whistler. Examples of Black trails here in Squamish would be Ditch Pig, Pammplemousse and all of the features on Rupert.  (If your answer is NO, head to our Intermediate Program page, we can provide you with the skills you need to progress to our Advanced  program and get the most out of your experience with us.)

✦ I am now ready and looking to add more skills to my tool box and explore how I too ride jumps, drops, rock slabs as well as steeper more technical terrain with more control and efficiency.

✦ I am wanting to ride with other women, make new riding buddies and progress both my confidence and skills on a bike together in a supportive and encouraging environment.

All of our Women’s MTB Coaching programs take place on a monthly basis running all season from April-October. We have both weekday evening and weekend sessions to choose from. They consist of four 2.5 hour coaching sessions with one of our experienced female coaches, who you will be able to get in contact with throughout the program. They will also provide you with riding and trail recommendations for you to explore outside of your program sessions. To explore available dates and times please click BOOK NOW.

‍What will I learn, what skills will I progress? ‍

This is all dependant on where you are on your riding journey, our coaches are experienced in pinpointing exactly where that is so that you can move forward together. They will cover the following skills on a variety of terrain and trail features so that you can progress your riding ability: 

✦ Position & Balance 

Build stability & control on your bike so that you are able to resist forces on the trail, enabling you to react & recover with a greater range of movement. 

✦ Operation of Controls 

Gear selection to maintain efficient cadence so you can ride for longer! As well as how to control speed and traction on varied terrain with different braking ratios.

✦ Terrain Awareness 

Learn how to plan your lines and achieve that dreamy flow & efficiency through corners and features, a better awareness for upcoming terrain and line choice.

✦ Direction & Pressure Control 

How rotation, leaning and angulation can improve your cornering ability. Learn to ride more smoothly by increasing traction and/or speed by controlling, creating or releasing pressure from the bike.
