***** Rider Grouping System  *****

 Kids rider level descriptions can be found here

We also have have a pictorial glossary here to help explain the various bike set ups and bike relevant terms mentioned within the rider level descriptors.

Our rider levels are replacing our previous system of grouping by age. This system will enable us to form groups based on; bike set up, confidence, current riding experience, and current skill level.  Age will still be a consideration, but generally only used for guidance. The new system will enable us to move riders across our groupings as they progress and develop their skills!

If you are unsure on where your rider should be placed, please don’t hesitate to get in touch to discuss.

This is a 2-day Shred rider’s program is designed to enable kids to develop the fundamental skills of mountain biking.

Each session has been designed and planned to progress the fundamental skills sets, therefore it is essential that the 2 sessions are completed consecutively.

The program will progress your child’s position, balance and ability to operate their controls efficiently and safely. This will be done through fun group, activities that build essential skills and confidence helping your child to ride safely and smoothly and with good control.

Each session includes plenty of trail time within the Spring Gully network and as skills are consolidated, we progressively access more challenging terrain over the 2 days.

This extended 3-hour session includes time for a short BYO snack/food break around 11:30am.

Groups will be formed based on our rider levels. We maintain a coaching ratio of 1:6 which allows us to safely manage our riders and importantly to maximize learning time where we prioritize providing specific individual feedback.
