Remy Metailler Teaches Us How to Ride Rock Slabs Like a Pro

We met up with Squamish local, Remy Metailler, on our recent mountain bike road trip through the Pacific Northwest. He took us to the iconic granite rock slab, In-N-Out Burger. Remy shared his knowledge and provided the crew with tips and tricks to effectively ride this iconic trail. From body position, brake modulation, and common mistakes the crew was able to walk away from the experience having progressed as mountain bikers. However, Remy wasn’t quite done with us. He had one more trick up his sleeve and it blew our minds.

These type of features look super gnarly!

[@backcountry]

They are gnarly, but still manageable. Especially when you've got Remy coaching you.
