Are you already mastering the essential bike handling skills and are you ready to build on them to boost your riding? You enjoy biking easy single trails, however steep terrain, rocks and roots make you feel uncomfortable? You want to become a more consistent rider by gaining confidence on challenging single trails and in bike parks?
In our eXplore. courses, we teach you techniques for gaining speed, maintaining flow, and conserving momentum. Discover your skills safely.
PROGRESS.
You spend lots of time in your saddle and rate yourself as a very experienced rider? You are already mastering difficult trails as well as bike parks? However, sometimes you feel limited, and finding the final touch in your riding skills would allow a cleaner line, a safer jump, or a higher cornering speed?
In our PROGRESS. courses we optimize your riding skills, boost your style, and help you to reach the next skill level when riding berms, jumps, roots, rock gardens, and jumplines.
GET YOUR BIKE EXPERIENCE WITH US
You quickly get arm pump when riding downhill, your feet or hands fall asleep while pedaling, if you ride longer you get knee or back pain, you are not sure whether the width of your handlebar or the length of your stem fits your ergometry, or you want to get even more out of your suspension?
With our bike-fitting, we optimize your ergometry on the bike and adjust the suspension (fork and damper) to your body weight and riding ability. An optimally adjusted bike is the basis for more fun on the trail.

Good to know
Since we are in the outdoor segment with our sport, we have to be able to cope with any weather conditions, according to the well-known saying: “There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing!”
Coaching therefore takes place in all weathers!
In the event of imminent danger (e.g. thunderstorms), coaching will be interrupted at short notice to ensure the safety of the participants.

- Goggles – sports goggles or bike goggles
- Gloves – full finger gloves recommended!
