Camps Bikegroms
Parc des Sommets
Secteur Oak et P7
A revisited "day camp" formula, targeted at young people who want to progress at a faster pace.
A unique development program! Bikeskills offers a niche product for the development of the next generation of shredders. Much more than a day camp, young riders aged 11 to 15 years old will have the opportunity to spend three days with our expert coaches. They will learn and they will progress, you have our guarantee!
Our youth development program is a mid week program running from 9am to 2pm. It is our experience that a camp running for too long will tire the riders and diminish quality of training. We strongly believe this format is optimal for the kids to have fun, learn and grow as riders.

Progress your long term skills
These progression clinics allow you to start or continue your season with safety and confidence. A progression of technical skills will be taught, allowing you to reach another level of trail riding. Moreover, you will learn in a motivating and inspiring environment, with other riders of your level.
Lesson format : Groups of six participants of the same level are formed to meet the specific needs of each person. A specific theme will determine the sessions in order to cover a maximum of skills while respecting the group’s progression.
Coach: Your coach will be certified level I or II pmbia.org and will have 20h or 40h of remote area first aid training.
Terrain: The type of terrain ridden will greatly vary according to the group’s skill and fitness level. We will insure that you ride a great variety of trails and types of terrain to maximise learning and accelerating skill development.
Please refer to the skill level needed for the level of the session (beginner, intermediate, strong intermediate or advanced)

To protect yourself from minor scrapes and injuries, Bikeskills recommends that you ALWAYS wear knee protection. Gloves, eyewear / goggles and elbow protection are also recommended, but not mandatory. Of course, a helmet is always essential, ideally a mountain bike specific helmet. A full-face helmet and chest protector for advanced and/or lift courses is also recommended, but not mandatory.
As the class will be held outdoors and we might not have access to indoor facilities, it is recommended that you check the mountain weather forecast and plan accordingly, as weather can change rapidly. It is recommended that each member of the group bring snacks and water to ensure they have enough energy to enjoy the class.
As we want to prepare you in advance for a great experience, here are some notes on safe mountain biking
- Communicate your apprehensions, previous injuries and physical limitations to your coach.
- Do not exceed your physical and technical limits.
- All difficulties and modules are optional at all times. We can always reduce the physical and technical demands of the lesson.
- Depending on the objective of the course, challenges will be incorporated, from the simple to the complex.
- Before embarking on a technical section, participants must demonstrate a minimum level of mastery on flat terrain or on trails of lesser technical difficulty.
- For a technical challenge, we stop, analyze, walk the section and then engage… or not!
