If you’re a mountain biker living in Nelson or just visiting, you’re in luck because there are many opportunities to improve your skills with a mountain bike coach in our private progressive mountain bike skills park. The “Field of Dreams” offers a safer environment for riders of all levels to improve their skills, learn new techniques, and challenge themselves with jumps, drops, and other features.
Advantages of a Progressive Mountain Bike Skills Park
One of the main advantages of coming to a progressive mountain bike skills park is the ability to learn new skills in a safe environment. The park is designed with features that allow you to progress at your own pace and challenge yourself without putting yourself at risk. A skilled mountain bike coach will work with you to identify areas where you need improvement and provide you with guidance and feedback to help you master those skills.
In Nelson, mountain bike jumps are a popular feature of many trails, but they are often not progressive and come in a widely varying range of difficulties, shapes, and sizes. The “Field of Dreams” on the other hand has many progressive features, so you can build your skills up with increasingly difficult and bigger features. With the help of a mountain bike coach, you can learn to approach jumps with the right speed, body position, and technique to ensure a smooth takeoff and landing. You can also learn how to control your bike in the air and adjust your trajectory to land safely. By mastering these skills, you can tackle more challenging jumps and build your confidence as a rider.
Another advantage of coming to our progressive mountain bike skills park here in Nelson is the opportunity to work with a mountain bike coach who understands the local terrain and can help you prepare for the trails you want to ride. We can use the “Field of Dreams” to prepare you for Nelson’s trails. Whether you’re interested in cross-country, enduro, or downhill riding, a skilled coach can help you identify the skills you need to succeed and provide you with training tailored to your goals. By working with a coach who knows the area, you can also learn about the best trails to ride and how to approach them safely and confidently.
