Welcome to Air 201!

Air 201 is for riders who are already comfortable and stable on basic drops, and are jumping 10’+ table top jumps consistently. We’ll warm up on some basic table tops, then move into jumping gaps on Gravy Train, which has gaps from 6-15’ in size. While Air 101 is not a prerequisite, we recommend it for anyone wanting to work on drops and featuring, and to get an in-depth breakdown of jumping.

Air 201 covers:

  • Progressing to gap jumps

  • Improving overall jumping technique

  • Reading jump lines and identifying tempo changes

Who: Riders 16+

Prerequisites:

  • Ability to jump table top jumps consistently

  • A willingness and desire to try jumping small doubles

Skill Level: Intermediate+ (Rider should be already cleanly jumping 10’ tabletop jumps)

Duration: 1 day x 2.5 hours

Location: Duthie Hill Mountain Bike Park, Issaquah, WA.

Where to meet: The group will meet in the central clearing of Duthie Hill park, next to the large covered shelter. Plan on arriving early (we recommend 20-30 min) so you have time to park and pedal into the clearing.

What’s next?

After this course, we often recommend:

  • Air 201 is great class to repeat until you’re very comfortable and consistent on Gravy Train and similar jump lines

  • 2-Day Advanced Air – when you’re ready to ride bigger jump lines such as Semper Dirticus (black diamond jump run), and start adding movement and style in the air
