Rock Solid Technical Terrain Clinic

This session zeroes in on the skills you need to confidently ride rock features—whether it’s navigating through awkward rock gardens, managing steep rock roll-downs, or handling sharp ledges.

We’ll cover:

• Reading rock features – how to spot rideable lines, anticipate wheel placement, and plan your approach
• Body position & timing – mastering a low, stable position with proper timing for weight shifts and bike movements
• Controlled braking – learning how and when to brake to maintain traction and balance
• Momentum vs precision – knowing when to roll smooth and when to go slow and deliberate
• Front wheel lifts & rear wheel management – using technique (not just brute force) to get over obstacles
• Commitment and confidence – building mental strategies to reduce hesitation and ride more fluidly.
