Looking to specifically improve on jumps and drops. Currently I only tackle small drops and landing those feels more like luck than technique, and always roll or take a chicken line round jumps (previous attempts have not ended well). When I visit Wales I usually ride red routes but would like to do them better and maybe tackle a few black runs one day. The courses at UKbikeskills and looks pretty good, just need to sort a day off with my boss!

1st session: in the red jacket

2nd session: in the green hoodie with a blue Demo

Makes a huge difference to your riding and confidence on new jumps
