Freeride Team

Our mission is to provide the best high-level mountain bike coaching by offering routine development and training for youth racers and freeriders alike in a team environment.
Freeride Team Goals
The primary goal is to provide a well-rounded, rewarding experience that helps athletes grow as riders and as individuals. Each athlete’s journey is supported by individualized planning that focuses on long-term growth. By setting clear goals and expectations, our coaching staff tailors training to meet riders at their current ability and help them progress with purpose. Whether riders are looking to progress their skills or looking to compete at a high level, our program is built to adapt and support them every step of the way.
This program differs from our Race Team because this team focuses on general skill development and making well-rounded riders rather than having a specific race focus. This team welcomes riders with a range of abilities, as there will be multiple groups. This team does have the possibility of focusing on more freeride-based progression and utilizing our foam pit and resi landing to safely progress tricks to the mountain. If you are looking to safely progress your riding in a fun team environment or if you are interested in progressing your skills and tricks on our freeride terrain, this team is for you.

This program differs from our Development Team because this team will focus on race-specific training. We welcome riders from all gravity disciplines, from enduro and downhill to dual slalom and pumptrack. Our training program will focus on riding the technical terrain serviced by the chairlift; however, if you are looking to succeed in any gravity discipline, this team is for you. This team will focus on learning how to go faster in a calculated way, but we will also focus on building the most well-rounded racers we can. We will have plenty of days riding technical terrain, but we will also ride our freeride terrain, XC network, and more, if possible. This team is for any rider aged 10-16 looking to be a part of a team that has fun and focuses on learning how to ride faster. You do not need to be an experienced racer, just one who is willing to try!
