Chris is without a doubt the best coach you can find for any level! After one day in Verbier, I don't think I'll ever ride the same way again, Chris gave me all the theoretical bases, and then throughout the day, before, and during the downhill runs, he is constantly correcting your faults and where you can improve! At the end of the day you know exactly what you need to train to get much better technically and how to do it. Chris is really cool and I can add that it was the best and most...

EXORIDE, c'est une expérience unique avec un guide expérimenté et surtout passionné! Je recommande vivement EXORIDE pour vos sorties shuttle, MTB, voyages, cours de perfectionnement et sorties entreprises. Vous trouverez de multitude de sortie à tous niveaux! Très important : consulter les niveaux requis des sorties avant de vous inscrire, si votre niveau est surévalué vous vous mettrez en danger ainsi que les autres. Bon ride à vous.
