JustMTB Introduce The Ultimate Skills Course

The innovative and fun team at JustMTB are always looking for new and original ideas to make their tours more interesting while at the same time stressing the importance of developing skills and learning in mountain biking. To this end, they have introduced the ultimate six-day skills and training week, a skills camp focused on improving their clients’ riding technique, speed and skill which can be seen at http://www.justmtb.co.nz/#!wyn-masters-tour/c1sue. As the course explains, “Whether you ride to compete or just for fun – it’s time to get faster”.

This new course is based around the mecca of Rotorua, New Zealand, where JustMTB have access to some of the best of bike parks, downhill tracks, enduro shuttles and backcountry trail riding all within a small area.  With World Cup Downhiller and Wheelie Wednesday star Wyn Masters as their coach, JustMTB will focus on specific skills throughout the week, increasing riders’ speed, polishing their technique and boosting confidence.

However, it won’t be all learning as participants will have the opportunity to shuttle with Wyn for fun, working on what they have learnt and posting times to mark their improvement.  The tour will head out trail riding into the native backcountry, exploring some of New Zealand’s best hidden trail secrets, riding through the ancient untouched forests concealing these ribbons of perfect single-track.

More than a skills camp, this is a tour of self-improvement and people will leave with more than new found bike skills; they will leave with an understanding of how best to utilise their body.  The course will also concentrate on the importance of nutrition and hydration and how to build a training plan around everyday life and how to peak for those critical events.

Following morning skills sessions riders can then enjoy the world class local single-track and enduro trails, race their mates on the dual slalom and track their progress with timed runs on their favourite enduro trails. Evenings will be spent relaxing with a beer by the lake or in the local hot pools, soothing tired muscles, while the JustMTB guys get the BBQ going.

Included in the course is accommodation, the majority of meals, all required transport, shuttle passes, 24//6 travel guides and, of course, coaching by the man himself, Wyn. For further information please visit the website at http://www.justmtb.co.nz .
