Rocks and Rolls

Sydney has some of the most unique and technically demanding riding in the world, with rock, rock and more rock! If you’re not confident to get your wheels up and down the countless sandstone ledges, roll downs and steps, you’re probably not having a whole load of fun. If you find yourself walking small sections of the Manly Dam trail or choosing to take the B-lines, then this clinic is for you!

 

In this clinic we’ll teach you the skills you need to rule the rocks and rolls, giving your riding more flow and control, using less effort and enjoying the technical challenging parts of the trails much more! After reinforcing our fundamental skills, we’ll work up to more advanced skills and session them on progressively more difficult trail features.

 

​This workshop is also perfect for anyone who's completed our Fundamentals skills clinic and, after spending some time refining the skills learnt on that clinic, is now ready to expand their range of skills and ride more challenging trail features.
