 This looks really good. The camp looks very well put together and professional. COC just looks like a gong show in comparison, but I guess thats what you get when your target demographic is youth and your coaches are nutty slopestyle riders (no hate, its just you gotta be a little insane to be doing what they are doing, and i'm stoked on it). Plus your getting a full season pass here and its still a bit cheaper than coc!

 Agreed Bullcrew. I took one of Zep's courses last year, and as an experienced rider, I was pretty staggered by how much I learnt about stuff I thought I already had a good handle on - I've been riding and racing for about 10 years so to be honest this came as a bit of a surprise to me. The professionalism and polish of their program impressed me a lot, and the quality of instruction was excellent and very insightful - the instructor picked up on a LOT of little things that myself and the others were doing (or not doing) that helped a surprising amount.

 Be nice if someone could put one together down under... But it's all goods if your in North America. I'm sure that camp will be sweet for you guys.

 There are clinics in NZ which are supposedly pretty good. E.g. www.mtbskillsclinics.co.nz. Think they operate in Wgtn & Rotorua

 There are also clinics in Australia (Canberra). Bike Techniques - same set up and style as Zep.

 Luthien... WAIT! We are actually just scheduling our 2 and 3 day "Mini-Camps" for this summer, so look out on our website for the details and dates soon. They will be just coaching and won't include all the extra stuff these multi-week camps include, so we'll be making them as affordable as possible.

 100% agree.
I am really disappointed that they don't have 2 day camps. I had priv session with Paul and I loved it. I don't consider Dirt Series camp because I went once and didn't like it at all. Looks like I am going to go to Schley Camps this year.
