PRESS RELEASE: Kasper Wooley

Today, I’m excited to officially launch Kasper Woolley Coaching — a personalized 1:1 online coaching service for mountain bikers of all levels, delivered via Zoom sessions.

If you’re looking to take your riding to the next level with 1:1 online coaching, then this is for you.

My goal is to make high-level coaching more accessible to riders around the world. I want to make high-level coaching more easily accessible for anyone all over the world. This is especially a really good option for people who mostly ride on weekends and don't want to spend their valuable free time at coaching sessions. This model will be a low-time commitment for people to access high-level coaching at a time that works for you. The online format offers a flexible, low-time-commitment way to access high-level coaching, allowing you to make real progress without sacrificing valuable ride time. My area of expertise is cornering, body position and bike setup. All details, pricing, and booking info can be found on my website (linked below).

Just to clarify — this doesn’t mean I’m stepping back from racing. It’s no secret that this past season has been a rough one, with injuries and illness keeping me away from the races. But I’m more motivated than ever to come back strong in 2026 and show what I’m really capable of. In the meantime, this downtime has allowed me to develop a coaching model that I can run from anywhere in the world, which fits perfectly with my racing schedule.

How It Works:

1. Select your session and time slot via the website.

2. You'll receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to submit your riding videos and the Zoom link for your session.

3. During our session, we’ll review your footage and focus on personalized strategies to help you progress faster and ride with more confidence.

To celebrate the launch, I’m offering a free introductory session for a limited time — so be sure to book early.

Thanks for the support — I’m looking forward to working with you and helping you push your riding to the next level

About me:
I am a professional DH mountain bike racer currently riding for the YT MOB factory team. I have been on a professional racing team for 6 years. I have 5 years of experience racing in enduro, and I am currently in my first year of DH racing. In that time, I have had 8 top ten finishes on the Enduro World Cup circuit with a 7th overall in 2024. I also came 18th in my first-ever World Cup DH, and I was 2nd in 2024 at Canadian DH Nationals.

I have only been racing for 8 years, so I have had to work extremely hard and dive deep into the details on how to become a better rider and racer. I have really gone in depth on cornering technique and body position, as these are the core elements of riding faster and more in control. This is an ongoing process of learning that is always evolving. Being overly picky myself about my technique and bike setup, I want to be able to really help people make real improvements. I am not done with my racing goals, and this is not me taking a step back. I am still continuing to pursue my goals of winning a World Cup DH.

I am constantly learning and refining my craft. My goal with this coaching business is to pass on my knowledge and help people achieve their goals, anywhere from having more fun, going faster, feeling more confident, bike setup or race results.

 I have no connection to Kasper Woolley, and I'm not really at a point in my life where I am trying to get a lot faster. However, if I were, I would look seriously at this.

Paul the Punter featured Kasper in a couple videos as far back as 2019, and Kasper's advice was, frankly, awesome. Here's the first video:
youtu.be/hJf4bQ1y1f0

I assume he has only gotten better as a coach since then.

 Kasper is fast as f, has great style and is a really good communicator so I bet these coaching sessions would be valuable.

 Is a really good communicator? Just listen to the downtime podcast episode with him. I’m not a English native speaker but can certainly express myself 10x better.

 This could well fill a gap. Lots of coaches out there that do well on beginner/intermediate coaching, but the talent and availability thins out fast above the intermediate skills level. How effective virtual coaching is remains to be seen.

 this fills an income gap... as the team dissolves in thin air .. as again YT pulls the rugs

 @Lagr1980: Not saying you're wrong and the team might be affected; however, Kasper've had some health issue for a long time, and looks like his body can't withstand the injuries well. He's a great rider with a nice style - this is the way to get him some income outside of WC/EDR

 I'm not so sure about that. On the contrary, pro riders are usually naturally really talented and didn’t have to "learn" how to gap, jump, drop, etc. Of course, they’ve perfected their technique, but I’ve noticed that a lot of the best riders I’ve met often struggle to explain exactly what they’re doing.

 @nicotikk: very possible. When Barry Bonds retired from smashing baseballs and became the Marlin’s hitting coach, he was really bad at it. Putting the barrel on the ball just came naturally to him, he couldn’t communicate how to do it.

In a similar vein, I sucked in math at school. Had to work so hard to pass secondary school math. Now that I’m a school teacher, I love teaching math, and am very good at it, precisely because I had to work so hard to understand it. Teaching English though? Jesus, I had to do so much research on what a predicate, or subordinate clause is, because I never “learned” English.

 @nicotikk: yeap, being good at your craft doesn't mean you can teach it Smile but I guess... it's also a skill and it's possible to learn to a certain degree.
  • 20
 @nicotikk: Naturally talented with great special awareness (in general) but.... they have spent the hours on training and practicing.
We are lucky and have some great coaches in the area I live that have done very well at the races too at the elite level. They seem to get good outcomes from their students.
It has to help to see or hear the level of commitment and dedication it takes to learn the craft of riding fast.
We can see the number of 13+ coming though now from various clubs and facilities that are so much faster than that age group was 10 years ago. The sprot is moving just now and moving fast. It like the "lost generation" of senders, downhillers no in their 30's with expensive bikes are being replaced by the generation of young, flat our senders who train hard and ride fast. Largely due to the coaches who didnt quite make it having to find an income. Its awesome to see.
  • 50
 @nicotikk: good counter-example is Yoann Barelli; he rides several levels above us mere mortals but is a phenomenal coach. Teaching is a skill itself and the best coaches consciously break down the techniques into teachable components and practice communicating them.

That said, I'm not completely sold on the online delivery of what is (IMO) best taught in-person and in the field. Maybe some of the non-riding aspects, like mental or race preparation? not sure. I did the Ryan Leech "Learn to Wheelie" course and the watch-understand-practice cycle works OK, but that was for essentially a single skill.
  • 20
 @betsie: For the younger generation, it's a mix of several factors, like better bikes and people already doing things that seemed impossible for us 10 or 15 years ago. But you're right — having a coach and a clear direction is really important. I wasted so much time back in the day, for example, learning to drop, when the only advice people gave was "go backwards on the bike," which isn’t always the best solution for everything, haha. I live in the area where most of the best French mountain bikers come from. For instance, I watched Loïc Bruni racing in our regional races when he was 14 or 15 (and he was already so fast). I'm pretty sure Loic couldn’t have told you how or why he was going so fast — he was just naturally gifted. You could clearly see that this kid had something special. But some pros, over time, can become excellent coaches if they really dig into it
  • 30
 Another new one come out lately for performance cyclists, I have seen also has virtual with a video platform is apogeeacademy.co

Been meaning to give it a try but haven't got around to it yet
  • 61
 not many can corner better then Kasper.
  • 10
 Seems like a tough thing to pull off virtually. I presumably have to enlist someone to video me, hoping to get the right angles, terrain, etc., to enable effective coaching. Upload videos, take the advice, go out and try it, maybe I do it right, maybe I don't. Video again, etc.
  • 40
 Maybe you will just have to see for yourself

 I hope this works out for him. Better to secure a second source of income before YT pulls the rug on their athletes once again.
