Specific areas

Marked area, equipped, possibly regulated, dedicated to one or more of the following practices:
– Dirt zone: Zone made up of bumps allowing the successive sequence of jumps / tricks.
– Slope Style area: Area made up of jumps and artificial modules that can be linked together in different ways.
– Trial zone: Zone made up of natural and/or artificial obstacles arranged in such a way as to favor balance and crossing.
– Skills area: Area equipped with natural and artificial obstacles specially intended for the initiation and practice of basic mountain biking techniques.
– North Shore Zone: Zone made up of wooden footbridges integrated into the course.
– Free ride zone: Delimited zone, equipped or not, where the rider is free to move.
– Pump track: sequences of turns, hollows and bumps that can be rolled up or jumped in multiple combinations. “Track” means the track while “pump” describes the “flex-push” movements performed by a combined action of the arms and legs on the bike. Thus, it is thanks to this “pumping” movement on the dips and bumps of the courses that the cyclist increases his speed without using the pedals.
