The FAST Way To Quickly Learn To MTB

Stop two of our cross-country roadtrip was in Branson, Missouri at Howler Bike Park. There was just one problem...it was closed on the day we arrived! They shut down the park for a day to do maintenance on the park, and of course that was the day we arrived. Thankfully, the crew at Howler was super cool and gave us one of the most memorable days of the trip!

A huge thank you to the crew at Howler, and especially @hayden_cavanah for all the shuttles and riding!

Here is the list of ALL the upgrades that we gave Teegan along the way:

Howler is awesome and the Howler family are the greatest people you'll ever meet.

It is so cool to see you do this cross-country trip with Teegan and the progression he is making. Is Violet interested in mountain biking or trials?
Shout out to Hayden for his help in making this possible.

Aaron you've demonstrated how to be patient as a father and let Teegan have it stress free. I've got a lot to learn from you on this topic, as well as the trial skills of course. Good job!

That is a fantastic way to get to know your son as a young man, congratulations on a great trip and bonding time together 👍👍
I wish my kids rode with me!

So cool to see that progression, from the previous "I'm not riding down that" to just cruising down something even more technical, well done both of you!

Dude, Jenson is the best for this thing. Just got the wife shoes for $22. 80% off! My Stamps have a few months left in them, but I'll be keeping an eye out for the deals.

6:21 Nice!

It's crazy to me that you are so good on bikes and he is that old without ever being interested. Hopefully he falls in love with it and more father/son time can be had.
I have 3 daughters. None of them are interested at all in anything outdoors.

Awesome video, hope he keeps the stoke! 🎉

Nice to see trails at howler for us mortals. That loose rock covering a lot of our trails out here is spooky for beginners. Its like riding on golf balls. Wonder if some knee pads would have helped his confidence a little.

It may seem insignificant to some, but have good mtb specific shoes really does make a huge difference.

Might be a good idea for him to pad up as a first time mountain biker.
