September

All of our teams take a 2 week break at the end of August to allow for change of schedules with school and a nice break in the heat of the summer. We will provide athlete evaluations and suggestions for next steps for your athlete at this point. If your athlete desires to move on to Drifters, and our coaches recommend them, then they can join the Drifters team for September training. 

​

October

Banditos may be invited to our world famous Desert Sessions. We ride the old Red Bull Rampage sites and teach kids how to ride this amazing terrain intelligently to avoid injury and maximize fun! 

​

Banditos is open to athletes across the country ages 6 and older. Riders must provide their own bike and gear and be comfortable riding intermediate flow and tech trails. Banditos must have basic understanding of trail riding, shifting, braking, and jumping (small airtime is fine, just need the desire to catch air!).

 

If you have an absolute beginner-to-downhill, with some trail experience, we can provide private coaching to get them ready for Outlaw programs.
