About the event
This seven week Downhill program is based at the Bootleg Mountain Recreation Site on Wednesday evenings from 5:30-7:30pm, May 13 - June 24th. This program is offered to youth aged 10-15 with a focus on developing more downhill skills and techniques at Bootleg Recreation Site. A full face helmet, knee pads and gloves are mandatory, and body armour is highly recommended for all groups. There are 3 programs offered: , intermediate, expert and advanced/race.
Intermediate MTB competency is required, and a full suspension bike and ability to ride all black trails at Bootleg are a pre-requisite for the advanced group.
Coaches will do their best to place riders in the appropriate group based on a combination of age and ability and group composition may change over the program. PARENTS ARE EXPECTED to help deliver the downhill program by providing a shuttle truck and driving shuttle service or other on-site support for AT LEAST TWO SESSIONS and for liability reasons are also required to be club members. If shuttle requirements are not met, then families will be charged a $200 shuttling deposit at the end of the season. Shuttle sign up will be required prior to the start of the program.
