- What led you to launch Radical Roots in 2018?
- What can riders learn from riding flats that they can’t learn riding clipless pedals?
- Do you think it’s better to learn skills on a hardtail than a FS bike?
- Are the junior riders you work with looking to develop different skills from the adults that attend your other camps?
- How much does having a good mountain bike contribute to rider confidence, and perhaps even skill? How do you know if you need to upgrade your skills vs. your bike?
- What are the skills your students are most interested in learning? Is there a fundamental skill or skills everyone should learn first?
- What are the skills you’re working on personally? Are there things you wish you could do better?
- What makes someone a successful MTB skills coach?

ER, flight for life, reconstructive surgery, need more examples? Just those can add up to jumbo loan status in a very few seconds.
Frankly, folks should focus on the fundamentals. Do the time!! In other words, practice...
Coaching can bring great results but the admission price is still down to doing the diligence called practice. Make that coaching time count!!
