Chris Ball's Dirt School DVD
Looking to polish up your XC trail skills? Then this is definitely one to watch. Scottish DH National Coach Chris Ball teamed up with Reset Films to bring you the Dirt School DVD. Whether you are a novice or an advanced rider there is something in here for you.Chris delivers relaxed and informal lessons on all the fundamentals of the trails you will ride from blue to black grade.
This is really aimed at you trail centre/center junkies out hitting technical rides and not your beginner spinning through the park or along the canal towpath.
As Scottish National DH Coach he already has one UCI DH World Champion under his wing (Rhubarb) and he is currently working with the next future DH champions with the likes of Flockhart, Scott and Buchanan (You heard these names here, first!)
Just note this DVD is XC based and not a DH tutorial. That said many of the skills Chris has picked up along the way do transfer very nicely across all cycling disciplines.
Filmed in beautiful Scotland at Glentress and Innerleithen on their World famous 7 Staines Trails you also get a great insight into what we ride over here in the U.K, even Judith Charmers would have been impressed (Wish You Were Here).
