Mountain biking is going to see some major changes in the next decade. The aspiring athletes of today, though they might still be in their youth, have the drive, the skills, and the gear to fundamentally change our sport, for the better. It only takes being passed by a ten year old on one of Whistler Bike Park’s jump lines to understand… these kids are on a whole other level.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Talents like these don’t appear in a vacuum, however. “It takes a village…” after all. Thanks to the dedication of their mentors, the conditions are right for today’s young mountain bikers to progress faster than any generation before them.<\/p>\n

IMBA’s Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day<\/a>, held June 9th and October 13th, encourages parents, trail stewards, and coaches to foster the love for mountain biking, and help the next generation of riders shape the future of our sport.<\/p>\n

Young or old, the rewards of our sport come with risks as well, and ensuring that riders have the proper gear is crucial. IXS has designed a full line of youth gear and apparel to keep riders safe and comfortable as they push their boundaries on the bike.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From armour to jerseys, IXS has designed a lineup of youth gear that will appeal to kids as much as their parents. A full line of armour, knee pads<\/a> and gloves<\/a> to full torso protection<\/a> and full-face helmets<\/a> compliments race and casual jerseys<\/a> sharing both the material and styling of the adult line.<\/p>\n

On June 9th, join us in encouraging young riders to experience the best side of our sport, and Take a Kid Mountain Biking<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
