Reading conditions, choosing gear
The course emphasizes understanding weather forecasts and determining wind strength, direction and quality so you can choose and set up equipment appropriate to conditions.
From edging to toe-side turns
You'll practice controlling riding speed by edging, achieving consistent riding in both directions, changing direction without stopping and executing a toe-side turn.
Self-launch, right-of-way and jump theory
Lessons cover right-of-way rules, self-launch risk assessment and the theory and safety rules for jumping, culminating in landing a basic jump.
