ABOUT US

TRIALS IS OUR LIFELONG PASSION

Exactly as much as we love to ride ourselves, we love to teach it.

For this reason, we created Trials Academy — to share all the knowledge (no secrets!) gathered through years of riding, competition experience and countless School of Dirt clinics.

BUT THIS IS NOT ABOUT US...

...even though the page title says so.

This is about your journey on the bike.
About unlocking new skills.
About having fun with friends.


About enjoying the wonderful sport you have chosen.

It's a simple equation:

If you are happy as a rider, we are happy as coaches.

Rider's stories from recent times:

THAT 1 YEAR DIFFERENCE IS CRAZY

“Made the switch to trials after years of all kinds of riding, and I definitely won’t forget my first sessions on the bike.

Fast forward: I tried to learn all these new skills and honestly got pretty frustrated at times. My son rides as well (a lot better than me by now). Thought a bit of extra knowledge couldn’t hurt, so we both started with the courses.

What can I say: It is so much more fun once you get the hang of how to approach stuff that was impossible before. Looking back just one year, the difference is honestly crazy.”

— André, 2024

André is the dad of Lennox, who is now (2026) supported by Jan in the European Championships as a minder. Always great seeing families getting into the sport together!


EASY HOPS - EASY FIRST COMPS

“After doing all your hop-challenges during off season, starting off in my first comps of the year was a blast! So much more feeling when riding tight stuff, saved me quite a few dabs.

Also: The input on suspension was great! Nobody showed me that before in such a way, now I really want to put in the effort on the way to finding that one setup.

In summer the focus will be on bigger stuff & dialing in the splatter, can't wait!"

— Lennox, 2025

THE DOUBLE BLIP CLICKED!

“Many of the exercises and drills I simply hadn’t seen anywhere else before. Coming from enduro and being used to fast riding, I really struggled with all those slow & technical skills at first (yes, my knees are still looking for the seat sometimes).

Of course, in the beginning I only wanted to unlock a clean double blip. You know it, defeat that log. Got so much more, though!

— Marion, 2024

Marion joined as one of the very first members in our online courses back in 2024. Thanks a lot for being part of the journey and helping us test things in the early days.


A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR THE KIDS

“Thanks again for all the input last year.

You guys created such a strong base for my two kids to build on. And to be honest, I also checked out a lot of the material myself — at least I like to think I can now give some decent riding tips as well.

What I really appreciate is your way of approaching things. Clear & structured but without making things more complicated than they need to be.

The kids had a great time, learned a lot, and I could clearly see how much more confident they became on the bike.

Love your teaching style — keep doing your thing. Cheers!”

— Tobias, 2026

Tobias is the dad of Josh and Joona. Both joined our online courses & later our clinics. Great guys & strong riding!
