Eliot's love for the sport is contagious and adds to the relatable of the course. His years of experience and infectious smile draw you into the class and make the time fly by. Throughout the series, he shared extensive knowledge of mountain biking, from basic techniques to advanced maneuvers. His clear and concise explanations made it easy for viewers of all skill levels to follow along. Overall, I highly recommend Crux Academy's video series to mountain biking enthusiasts.
