1. Do I need to be an advanced rider to book private sessions?
Not at all. These sessions are designed for anyone who wants to progress, whether you’re building confidence on technical trails or looking to master advanced features like jumps and steeps. We tailor the plan to your current level and goals.2. How do I know which package (3, 5, or 10 sessions) is right for me?
If you want a focused boost on a specific skill, a 3-pack is great. For broader progression and consistency, a 5-pack works best. A 10-pack gives the most value for riders aiming to transform their riding long-term with measurable results.3. What do I need to bring to my session?
Bring your bike in safe working condition, helmet, protective gear, water, and snacks. If you’re riding at a lift-accessed venue (Skyline, Coronet, Cardrona), you’ll need to purchase a lift pass separately.4. Is bike setup included in the coaching?
Yes. We cover in-depth bike setup, from suspension kinematics (sag, rebound, compression) to tyre pressures, handlebar width, and seat position. This ensures your bike is working with you, not against you.5. How is progress tracked?
Each session has realistic goals and KPIs. You’ll also receive video analysis through the Sport Sense coaching app, plus the option for complimentary timed training with our Raceline system to see measurable improvements.
6. How do the 3, 5, or 10 session packs work?
When you purchase a pack, you’ll receive a booking code that acts like credit. You can then use this code to book individual private lesson slots at times that suit you.7. Do the session packs expire?
Yes. All session packs are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase, giving you plenty of time to book sessions around your schedule.8. Can I share my session pack with a friend or family member?
Session packs are designed for one to two riders (similar ability) so we can tailor the progression plan specifically to you.
If you’d like to add more than 2 people in your session, we may only be able to do so provided abilities are the same.9. What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule a session?
We understand things come up. Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 72 hours notice. Cancellations with less notice may count as one used session from your pack.10. What if the weather is bad?
