We visit some of the more difficult sections in Svinklove and practice our technique in steep, rustic terrain - but there is probably also a blue track or two sneaking in, where we can get some air under the wheels.
We practice basic techniques such as line selection, position, etc. in the difficult terrain, but as needed we also pick in the menu of jumps, cutties, line selections, endoturns, scandiflick, stoppies, etc. And no, you don't have to know it beforehand, but an instructor can be the shortcut to mastering.
Who can join?
You are ready for the course if you are used to MTB and feel reasonably comfortable on most red tracks and have the courage to practice, possibly with help, at places like Marie's Drop and some of the black tracks.
You are welcome whether you ride XC, E-MTB, trail, enduro or just MTB.
Ask if in doubt!
Trained Instructors
Esben Kronborg is part of the team behind Feriecenter Slettestrand. Esben has the highest certification for instructors in Europe and also trains other instructors. During busy periods, Esben is assisted by skilled, trained instructors in our network - of course, all with the minimum certification D-MTBing1.
You can therefore be sure that your instructors know what they are doing and can provide safe, professional and high-quality technical training. Feriecenter Slettestrand is actually one of the very few places where one can receive training that prepares the instructor for the international EO-MTBING exam for MTB instructors and guides.
