Editorial Reviews
Bob Woodwards' SNEWS Outdoor Industry Newsletter
The most comprehensive how to mountain bike video ever made. The footage is excellent, the instruction first rate, the whole concept well conceived and executed.

Product Description
Go farther and faster with improved confidence. Fast paced motivational video demonstrates and explains techniques for braking, turning, climbing and descending. Hosted by World Champ and mountain bike legend Ned Overend.

This fast-paced and motivational video helps the viewer understand advanced riding techniques through a series of drills and demonstrations. The instruction is targeted at intermediate recreational riders and beginning racers, but is also appropriate for all levels of recreational riders.

Host and instructor Ned Overend ushered in the modern era of mountain biking with his victory in the first official world championship. He has won six national championships, and countless international competitions.

A methodical approach has been the trademark of Ned's competitive successes, and the trademark of his teaching style. Now riders of all levels can benefit from his superb descriptions of mountain biking technique, as Ned shares his secrets to technical riding.

Instructional sequences were shot in Moab on slickrock, and Porcupine Rim, and in on many of the trails surrounding Durango. Guest instructional appearances include John Tomac, Daryl Price, Greg Herbold, and Juli Furtado.

Technical riding skills are clearly described, from climbs to drop-offs and switchbacks to drifting high speed turns. Body movements are shown and animated, explaining subtle unweights and larger obstacle hops. Specific lessons include improving traction with body English, developing a smooth and powerful pedaling motion, and braking efficiently.
