This program focuses on Trail Riding, incorporating elements of Enduro riding on technical terrain and flow trails; Pump Track training, and Skills Park sessions to develop fundamental skills for jumps and drops. Riders will be grouped by skill level to ensure a safe, progressive, and engaging learning experience tailored to their ability and experience.

Safety is paramount in our program, we prioritize the enjoyment of the sport and continuous learning.  Our coaching sessions kick off at Lost Lake trails and include exploration of the diverse terrain of the Whistler Valley.   We ensure ample opportunities for exploration while maintaining the physical and mental well-being of our athletes through well-deserved rest breaks.
