In this tutorial, which we specifically designed for Cross Country but is applicable to any discipline that involves mountain biking on unpaved trails, I will show you the best techniques for descending with confidence, safety, and style. From theory to practice, I want to teach or demonstrate what I consider to be the correct way to master curves, maintain control in fast descents, perform foot positioning in corners, engage and disengage the pedals, and overall improve your cross country bike riding.
With these practical tips, specific exercises, and on-track demonstrations, I'm confident that you will be able to practice and acquire the necessary skills not only to excel in uphill sections but also to overcome the challenging descents that many people struggle with.
Whether you are beginners, enthusiasts, or experienced cyclists, this video will save you a lot of trial and error and perhaps a few falls and scares along the way.
