Ultimate Bike Academy
Mountain Bike Courses for Kids and Teenagers in Finale Ligure
Ultimate Bike Academy is our MTB school for children, teenagers and riders who want to learn how to ride a mountain bike, improve their skills and gain greater confidence and control.
From the first pedal strokes to advanced riding, our courses are organised according to age, skill level and experience, with activities designed to support every rider throughout their progression.
Our Courses
Our Academy combines technique and fun through a progressive learning path, where children and teenagers learn directly on the bike. Activities take place on pump tracks, jumps, berms, technical sections and airbags, combining skills exercises in the training area with real riding experiences on the trails.
Kids
From 4 years old
A first introduction to the world of mountain biking.
Through games, simple trails and fun exercises, we work on balance, coordination, bike control and safety, helping young riders build confidence on their bikes while having fun.
Beginners
From 7 years old
For children who can already ride a bike and want to learn the basics of proper mountain biking.
We progressively work on body position, braking, cornering, balance, small obstacles, climbs and descents, helping young riders build confidence and become more independent on the bike.
Teenagers
From 10 years old
A programme for riders who already feel confident on a bike and want to take their riding skills to the next level.
Sessions focus on cornering and berms, obstacle handling, pump track skills, trail riding technique, jumps and bike control, with increasingly challenging and progressive exercises.
Advanced
From 10 years old
Dedicated to experienced riders looking to take their riding to the next level.
We take a deeper dive into technique, speed, line choice, jumps, berms, bike control, and tackling more challenging trails, with specific exercises and activities focused on progression and refining your riding skills.
Experience and Passion
Our qualified instructors guide children and teenagers throughout their learning journey, adapting each session to the abilities and goals of every group.
We don’t just teach riders how to overcome an obstacle or tackle a jump. We help them develop solid riding skills, confidence, independence and awareness on the bike.
Because improving is also about understanding your own limits and learning how to face every new challenge with the right approach.
Private Lessons
Want to work on a specific aspect of your riding?
We also offer private lessons and personalised coaching, either one-to-one or for small groups.
We can tailor the session to your skill level and goals, focusing on riding technique, cornering, jumps, trail riding or any other area you want to improve.
From beginners to experienced riders, every session is built around you.
Ultimate Dream Park Feglino
A key part of our Academy activities takes place at Ultimate Dream Park in Orco Feglino, a large mountain bike park featuring jumps, berms, obstacles and trails of varying difficulty. It’s the ideal training ground for learning and developing the fundamentals of mountain biking in a controlled, safe and comfortable environment.
In addition to Academy activities, Dream Park is also open to riders of all levels for practice and training, providing the perfect place to work on your skills. The park also hosts mountain bike events and activities and features a food truck serving food and drinks — ideal for a break between sessions.
TUB Racing Team
The TUB Racing Team is the natural continuation of the journey started with the Ultimate Bike Academy, created for riders who want to turn their passion for mountain biking into a competitive path.
From technical training to race preparation, the Team gives motivated riders the opportunity to continue developing their skills, experience and confidence, while progressively getting involved in the world of competitive racing.
Over the years, the project has grown, taking the TUB colours to national and international race events and supporting young riders alongside high-level athletes.
From Passion to Competition
The TUB Racing Team was founded in 2019, driven by a passion for mountain biking and racing, and by the desire to create a team that could support athletes through a structured and meaningful journey of sporting development.
Year after year, the Team has grown, establishing an increasingly strong presence in the racing scene and creating an environment where experience, preparation and passion come together.
Today, the team includes young riders and high-level athletes such as Francesco Colombo, Dennis Tondin and Eleonora Farina, taking the TUB Racing Team to race events across Italy and on the international stage.
The Future of the TUB Racing Team
Our goal is to continue growing the project by investing in youth development, athlete preparation and an increasingly strong presence in high-level competitions.
Our ambition is to build a structure capable of discovering new talent, supporting riders throughout their development and helping them progress alongside established athletes, creating an ever-stronger connection between the Academy, the Racing Team and national and international competitions.
A project born from passion, with one clear goal: to develop athletes and take the TUB Racing Team to new heights.
