Coach Dan is awesome.

He's been a ski instructor for 18 years and has always enjoyed sharing a love for the outdoors. When he started working as a ski instructor he had to find something to balance the seasons. That led him into the world of mountain biking and he found it just as enjoyable. For the next several years Dan's life was full of teaching skiing in the winters and working as a bike mechanic. Biking and skiing have taken him to a number of wonderful places over the years and he loves sharing and teaching people ways to have fun experiences in the outdoors.
Coach Dan has also been head coach of a very successful local NICA team and is eager to help other coaches in their own efforts to support young riders.

Should coaches work with coaches? Can really good coaches learn more? Lone Peak High's staff sure thinks so! They came, they learned, they're now out teaching with that much more skill. What a superb bunch of dedicated people!

Yes, we were jumping, and it was awesome. 😎

Same jump, different results. Can you see why? Comment below before reading the description.

Jumping takes a combination of forward movement and upward force. Speed is straightforward enough to work with. It's the force that becomes the focal point of any jump lesson. Here we have a rider showing the difference between absorption and resistance. When met with speed, the jump provides upward force. It our job to work with it, and translate it to stable and controlled flight. How? Well that's a topic for later. 🤘

As we reflect on this last year, our most valuable teaching skill is quite clear. The value of listening is profound to us, not just to help our riders learn, but also because our intentional listening is a sign of how much we care about our riders. We want you to be heard and understood.
Here's to another year of listening and learning!
