Alastair Adams Bike Park Coach

MTB Skills Coaching – Bike Park

Utilizing the Whistler Bike Park our coaches will work through the skills you want to develop further to have more fun on your bike! You’ve heard about riding in Whistler and now it’s time to experience it with one of our professional coaches and bring your riding to a new level.

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 with lift line priority 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 team are official Whistler Bike Park Coaches and have also 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.

The Experience

Your tour experience starts by meeting your guide and our team at our Bike Shop in the Upper Village. Looks for all the bikes on the patio of Le Chamois Hotel.

We design each tour as a Private Ride in that it will just be your group riding together rather than joining other riders that you don’t know. This way we customize the ride to your exact interests.

Your ride will start right from our Bike Shop. This way our team can fine tune any fit adjustments for your ride and you have the opportunity to pick up any riding apparel at a preferred rate as one of our tour guests.

Our Professional Difference

We hold all the necessary trail permits including Commercial Recreation Tenure, BC Parks Permits and the various Municipal trail use permits.

All our guides are certified Mountain Bike Coaches with the PMBIA. All lead guides carry Level 2 certifications.

We operate from a full service shop that is focused on quality in everything we do.

Part of the proceeds from your tour payment is donated back to the trail builders to continue to maintain and improve our trails.
