What level rider am I?
Downhill Basics (Beginner):
Are you new to downhill mountain biking or have been a few times, but could use some guidance on proper positioning and techniques? Are you a little timid when it comes to the descent and want more confidence to not walk through sections or ride the brakes as much? Want to find the right balance between endurance and skills? Then the Snowmass Downhill Basics is the right choice for you.

Grow Your Skills (Intermediate):
Have you been downhill mountain biking before, but finding it hard to progress on your own? Maybe you just need a few helpful tips and tricks from a professional MTB guide and a crew of other like-minded and determined women to help bring you to the next level. We’ll discuss cornering at high speeds, bunny hops over rollers and how to maintain proper speed through different features. Come check out the Snowmass Downhill Grow Your Skills MTB Clinic.

Advanced Riding (Advanced):
Have you been biking for a while and want to work on your downhill, technical skills? Join our Snowmass Downhill Advanced Riding clinic and start to conquer those intimidating steep roll downs, wooden features, technical and tight terrain and getting faster through blind cornering. If you are currently competing or interested in competing in mountain bike downhill or enduro races - this course is for you.
