Just in time for the start of the new season, the Propain Gravity Kids came together for the first time for a two-day team event. On the schedule for the first day, there was a visit to the Propain headquarters for the adjustment of their protectors at Ortema, and on the second day, they had their first training session with Marcus Klausmann at the Stride indoor bike park in Strasbourg.

 It's nice to see that industry main player decided to return
0.001% of their profit back to society.

 And the most fun has: Marcus!
Just had a nice chat with him, also about riding with your own kids. We share the same expierence there: Up with the best things in life!
What he can do with these propain-gravity-kids now, must be pretty close to it.

 Could you imagine being handed that big box of gear for you to try on and take home?! Those kids must've been jacked! I would've loved to have been there to see their faces as they got their gear and bikes.

 This is excellent, and great to see Propain and other sponsors stepping up to help young achievers excel, there's coaching and now there's "coaching" the developments in how people were coached and now are coached had changed massively, now there is more mentorship and soo forth, so cool to see!!' Keep the positive side up!

 I think all those kids will remember Propain for the rest of their lives. Great thing you did here @PROPAIN-Bicycles!

 Looks like 100% (and many others) may have had a lot to do with this as well. Unless the price of an Aircraft helmet was wrong when I couldn't afford one. Also great job letting the kids on the pumptrack before handing out the helmets. Still a good thing and keep it up.

 I would love opportunities like this, its tough to be recognized because all the bike companies support kids in Whistler or other big mountain biking destinations.

 There were just under 200 Kids at the Crankworx Kids race from 5 - 15 years old times are changing mate especially in all sports the kids had a blast and all the kids I know love riding their bike, these kids are super lucky to have this program just imagine how good you could have been if you had the right coaching, gear and terrain to ride that is available today!!

 @BMXrad :
I think you are missing the point! Our program is about giving the kids the chance, time and environment to develop and become better riders. There is no pressure and no requirements they need to meet. These kids are highly motivated on their own to ride their bikes. We even have to force them to take a break on our coaching weekends. Seems to me like they have a lot of fun...
Cheers,
David (Team-Manager of the Propain Gravity Kids)
