  • Level 1 trains instructors to teach skills on green and blue trails.
  • Once you are an experienced instructor, Level 2 allows you to teach advanced riders and introduce jumps and drops (Air) or technical trail maneuvers (Trail)
  • Level 3 is for very experienced instructors who want to teach advanced to expert riders and offer long term
