World Champion Greg Minnaar is teaming up with Gene Hamilton of BetterRide for a three day downhill mountain bike camp in Boulder City, NV at Bootleg Canyon. This is an amazing opportunity to learn from one of the most experienced coaches in the sport and one of the fastest racers in the world, Greg Minnaar. Sign up soon as this camp limited to 12 riders to ensure the optimal athlete coach ratio."I learned more in this camp than in my entire career to date. The changes to my body position and cornering have already made me much faster." Andrew Pierce, Go-Ride Factory Team

"My first run down the mountain was on a trail that I had ridden many times before. Gene was following me half way down (to see if I was really paying attention) and it was my best run ever!!! That one run alone was worth the fee for the clinic, I was so impressed with what I had learned so far!" - Norba expert racer Chris Shelley

Designed for downhill racers, this Downhill Camp focuses on core skills, course inspection, finding the fast "pro" lines, memorizing the course and mental preparation and FUN. This camp will help racers shave 20 seconds or more off their race times (guaranteed).
