Mad March Racing is teaming up with the Silver Star SameSun Hostel for a 3
day freeride/downhill camp at the Silver Star Mountain Resort near Vernon, BC.
The camp includes 3 days and 3 nights on hill lodging, meals, coaching, and
lift tickets.
This is a FreeRide and Downhill focused camp. Riders should be comfortable riding
at intermediate to expert race speeds. All ages are welcome. Shaums will cover
drops, jumping, line choice, cornering, bike set up, and race strategy.
Silver
Star is a mere 22 km (12 miles) northeast of Vernon in British Columbia.
The mountain has some incredible mountain biking - a quick 7.5 minute ride time
to access 1,600 vertical feet of trails in Silver Star’s expanded bike
park on the Comet Express, Canada’s largest mountain bike chair lift.
Only 4 spots remain! Visit madmarchracing.com for camp details and registration.
Editor's note:
Last summer I had the chance to experience a morning of Shaums' instruction
and it did nothing less than revolutionize my riding. If I'm having a
bad day I call on some of the tips Shaums gave us and I'm back on track.
I'm much better in berms, at speed and cornering in any situation. Shaums
teaches you to use the terrain to your advantage and he is a fantastic
teacher. Don't miss an opportunity to let Shaums teach you to ride faster,
more smoothly and with more confidence.
Another bonus is riding at Silver
Star. The entire nsmb team was up there this past weekend and the
new trails that have been built are some of the most fun I have ever ridden.
I'll be following up with our impressions of the terrain next week but suffice
to say the place is phenomenal. You will love it.
