Freestyle Now has recently hosted some epic BMX and MTB airbag coaching sessions, bringing the excitement and thrill of BMX and mountain bike riding to participants of all skill levels. The last few sessions took place thank to West Cycle at Bindoon and Kings park and the City of Melville in Applecross at the Shirley Strickland reserve. The sessions gave riders the opportunity to learn and practice their tricks in a fun and safe environment. It’s all about building skills, boosting confidence, and creating rad memories!
The Freestyle Now airbag setup featured a custom-built kicker ramp leading to our massive airbag landing, allowing riders to safely work on everything from basic jumps to advanced tricks. The unique airbag design helps riders practice and perfect their stunts without the fear of hard impacts, making it the perfect platform for progression. Freestyle Now’s experienced coaching team was there to guide riders every step of the way. From building the confidence needed to ride over the ramp to making the jump gap larger as participants improved, our coaches provided guidance and encouragement throughout. Whether it was a young beginner getting comfortable with their first air tricks or a more advanced rider fine-tuning complex moves, the coaches were there to make sure everyone had a great time. It was fantastic to see riders of all ages participating in the airbag coaching sessions, from young kids to seasoned riders eager to learn new skills. Each session had an amazing atmosphere, with everyone cheering each other on and celebrating each successful landing. The progression and growth we witnessed were incredible, proving once again that BMX and MTB are for everyone, regardless of skill level.
