Is riding MTB down the trail actually "practicing" or does it require some additional focus? Although we teach all sorts of flat ground skills that are easy to repeat, not everyone wants to put the time and effort into that style of practice.

This week I got a brand new bike, the Marin Alpine Trail 1, and I took it out for a ride to demonstrate how we can mix skills practice with trail riding.

If you want a closer look at the Marin Alpine Trail, here's the link: https://jenson.sjv.io/Qy7gd9'>https://jenson.sjv.io/Qy7gd9

If you want to check out the Industry Nine wheels/hubs that I mentioned in the video, here's the link: https://jenson.sjv.io/EKj9DQ'>https://jenson.sjv.io/EKj9DQ

Big thanks to Seth Kendall for helping me film the riding clips in this video!
