Gene Hamilton, the owner and head coach of
BetterRide was driving through Park City and looking for people to join him at
The Canyons for some fun ride time. I was excited to ride with him casually to see his true skills. I've only taken camps from him and there is limited time and terrain to show off his true DH skills. Two other young kids joined us as well, Galen (16) and Sam (13). I knew immediately they were going to be rock stars and they did not disappoint! All 3 of those guys are super talented and have mad skills going off this huge jumps. I opted to take the "B" line and take photos!
While free riding I asked Gene if he would give me a private lesson. I ended up with 3 hours of Gene's attention and learned SOOOO much! I've taken two of his camps and needed that foundation in order for a private lesson to make sense. I was tired after riding a downhill bike with flat pedals for 5 hours, respect for all the DH folks that rally those heavy bikes!
