Technical Climbing Clinic 201 is was created for riders who want to take their climbing skills to the advanced level.
Whether you have taken our Technical Climbing Clinic before or if you want to start having more fun on advanced level technical climbs, this clinic is for you. Riders will session step ups, chunky climbs, steep slickrock, tight switchbacks and classic Sedona jank.
Sedona is the ideal terrain to refine your climbing skills with the instruction of a highly certified coach! Join BICP Level 3 Coach, Evan Puglia (one of the top instructors in the Southwest) and gain a better understanding on how to ascend with more precision and skill.
Morning Skills Session:
This day-long clinic will start at the Sedona Bike Park where we will thoroughly review correct body position on technical climbs, the different types of climbing, wheel lifts, nose pivots, track stands, hops, adding traction and more.
Delicious Lunch Options:
A catered boxed lunch alongside the SMBA staff for an hour is an opportunity to connect on the clinic’s content or chat general MTB tips & tricks.
Afternoon Trail Session:
Our afternoon session will exclusively be on Sedona’s trails, seeking out challenging advanced climbs and alternative lines known by the local SMBA staff. Knowing our backyard allows our team to curate an on trail experience that will level up your climbing!
This clinic is tailored for riders who identify as light Intermediate - low advanced climbers. The group size will be small, ensuring plenty of individualized feedback for each participant. This event sells out every season, don’t miss your chance to join the team!
