  • Adrenaline is the main reason we got hooked on mountain biking in the first place. We spend every day trying to see how far and how hard we can push ourselves. Whether it’s going faster, lifting more in the gym, hitting a bigger jump, a bigger drop…it is a relentless pursuit. Our Comfort Zones series is all about finding ways to push ourselves in a supportive environment. We’re pushing ourselves in areas we’re uncomfortable in- this doesn’t always mean going big and getting gnarly- it means progressing as humans and athletes.

    This is a great example of the difference between pressuring someone into a feature vs. supporting them to trust their abilities you know they have.
    Awesome video!

  • @brocksolidmtb684
    @brocksolidmtb684 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Miranda says one of the truest thinks ever in a progression video. If you are going to do it, its only scary until you drop in. I had this same experience maybe two weeks ago hitting the road gap at doumont in nanaimo, the closest thing i can compare it to is tipping off the bridge when bungee jumping. All the fear comes to a head, then you're into the game and its all that matters

    • @MGMAlternative
