Clinics

Fri 28.8. · 17–19

Norco Bikes & Pyörävarikko Freeride Clinic

Bikefest Friday special: Freeride clinic by Ville Vuori. Would you like more flair and style in your riding? Want to learn how to lean the bike while jumping, how to practise different jumping tricks, or how a Skandi Flick is done? Or how to get more out of the bike park trails? The clinic is aimed at riders who have been riding for a while and have strong riding fundamentals. Jumping must feel effortless and being in the air comfortable, and bike park experience is required. Jumping basics and lift use are not taught on this clinic. Minimum age 12 years. The clinic is free, sponsored by Norco Bikes & Pyörävarikko, and includes instruction. Participants must have a valid Bike Park ticket and their own bike and equipment (equipment can also be rented from Sappee's rental shop). Participants are not insured by the organiser. Meet at the Sappee bike school at 16:45.

Riders will be divided into level groups: experienced riders will enjoy fast-paced riding sessions in their own groups, while first-timers and intermediate riders will have a more relaxed experience. The track, Rabbit Run, will be fully lit and equipped with special light spots and smoke effects. Photographers will capture each rider in stunning light and smoke effects!
