What, Where and When: This Full day clinic will meet with riders ready to ride at the Pisgah Ranger Station at 10am on Saturday June 27, 2026.

Who: This clinic is for Advanced riders who have been on Black Mountain Trail. This is the big pull with the hike a bike and the beautiful overlooks. 276→477→Clawhammer→Black Mountain. I would like riders to be comfortable riding most of the downhill sections of this trail. We will session all of the downhill features on this trail as group energy allows. Riders are expected to bring lunch and 70oz of water and electrolytes as we may be out for a full 6 hours. We’ll be working on building confidence and speed in the technical terrain. Focus will be on improved body movement, braking and vision for faster riding. Riders will also learn improved direction control as well as pressure control in this terrain. We are going to session the heck out of Shrimpers left hand rock corner and work the features on this trail until we’re shredding harder!

Participant benefits: I use video analysis during the clinic to help riders improve their skills. All riders will receive a link to all of the photos and videos taken during the clinic. Participants will receive a thorough write up of the skills and maneuvers learned during the clinic so that riders may use them to continue their learning beyond this clinic.

This clinic is capped at 4 riders.
