Kids Camps
Skills for gravity induced fun
Based in Minturn, Colorado, Gravity Theory Mountain Bike Camp is a three-day course focused on having fun on our bikes! Created for riders age 8-12, this program is designed to provide skills and progressions that will safely encourage participants to develop their mountain biking abilities in the Vail Valley.
Spread out into various segments such as trail riding concepts, bike maneuvers and body positioning, this session will also cover trail etiquette and basic bike mechanics, while reinforcing a love of playing in the outdoors. We will utilize various methods of instruction to help make riding even more fun including games, races and some MTB team building. Campers should be prepared (and excited) for lots of time on their bikes as we enjoy the trails of Minturn.
