Mastering Mountain Bike Drops: A 3-Part Progression Series Take your riding to the next level with our focused 3-part series on mastering mountain bike drops. Whether you're a confident trail rider looking to add style and control to your descents, or you're new to airborne features and want to build the right foundation, this course will give you the skills and confidence to ride drops with control and flow. Class 1: Foundations & Technique Learn the fundamentals of drop technique in a safe, supportive environment. We’ll cover body positioning, bike setup, timing, and how to differentiate between a rollable drop and one that requires a proper lift. Expect plenty of drills, feedback, and slow-speed practice. Class 2: Small Drops & Body Control Build on the basics as we tackle small drops with progressive height and difficulty. Focus will be on approach, takeoff timing, mid-air balance, and smooth landings. We’ll introduce speed control and line choice to prepare for more dynamic trail features. Class 3: Intermediate Trail Drops Put your skills into action on real trail features. This session emphasizes flow, commitment, and adapting to variable terrain. Riders will practice drops in a variety of trail scenarios, including roll-to-drops, blind entries, and more technical landings. By the end of this series, you'll not only be landing drops more confidently—you’ll understand how to ride them smoothly, safely, and with style.
