ELEVATE YOUR RIDING – BIKE PARK SESSIONS
Take your riding to the next level with our MTB Skills Coaching sessions. Are you interested in learning how to do drops on your bike? Maybe you would like to improve your ability to do jumps or corner faster so you can keep up to your friends? Or maybe there is a specific trail in the Whistler Bike Park that you would like to be able to ride? If yes, then you have come to the right place!
The format of our Bike Park based skills coaching utilizes the chairlift to access the trails. The chairlift gives us the opportunity to review the overall plan for the session and then your guide will choose the trails and features that serve as the most effective classroom.
All of our professional coaches have undertaken training in the industry standard Professional Mountain Bike Instructors (PMBI) as well as advanced first-aid training. With these industry leading qualifications we ensure our coaches deliver a much more effective program of skills based training and proper trail progression.
The sessions will start at our Bike Shop in the Upper Village where you will meet your guide and get all setup on your bike. There are also options for you to bring your own bike rather than use ours and this is listed in our pricing structure of the tours. With our MTB skills coaching sessions we will still get lots of riding in, but your coach will use specific sections of trails to work on the fundamental skills that will help you most.
NOTE: Lift Tickets for the Bike park are not included in our package and can be purchased directly through Whistler/Blackcomb.
