Dave and Andy wanted some coaching to learn to carry speed through turns , ride over logs and learn how to jump properly.
I broke their riding down and made a small adjustment to Dave’s set up and away we went. The session unfolded under the blue skies and what a session it was. Now they knew about their body positioning and understood the mental skills , their riding really bloomed.
Colin, Tom, Andy and Tony have been to me twice previously and returned with Ian for a skills session. I had to work on positioning and footwork mostly today and also the head game.
The session consisted of Tabletop jumps, style, riding obstacles, drops and gaps and linking them all together.
Joe wanted to find the answer he always felt was just out of his grasp but that he was so close to. He came to me after reading recommendations and today was the day.
I deconstructed his riding and rebuilt it so he knew why it was right or wrong, he could feel it.
I worked on his physical and mental skills and we drew on his experiences from other sports. What a session!
