ChampGrad is the next step after the 2-Day ChampSchool—designed for riders who want deeper understanding, sharper skills, and personalized coaching that accelerates improvement.
Whether you choose the high-touch ChampGrad Semi-Private format (2:1 ratio) or the more structured ChampGrad small-group program (4:1 ratio), every ChampGrad event delivers individualized coaching, expanded curriculum, and the same physics-based methodology used by world champions, factory test riders, and top-level pros.
ChampGrad is exclusively for graduates of the 2-Day ChampSchool
What Makes ChampGrad Different?
Personalized Coaching
You’re not just another rider in a group—you are the curriculum.
Every drill, every lap, every debrief is customized to your riding.
Professional Tools & Analysis
ChampGrad brings pro-level training tools to civilian riders:
Video, data, mini-bikes, two-up laps, geometry discussions, and more.
Higher-Level Curriculum
This is not a repeat of ChampSchool.
It’s the evolution of the material, with expanded technical depth and more advanced execution.
Focused Environment
ChampGrad events are smaller, quieter, and intentionally structured around improvement—not maximizing headcount.
Who it's For
Riders who want to:
- Build on the foundation learned in the 2-Day ChampSchool
- Target specific weaknesses or breakthroughs with precision
- Understand why bikes behave the way they do at speed
- Add expert-level consistency and confidence to their riding
- Get more track time and more instructor interaction
If you’re ready for higher-level coaching with more focused correction, ChampGrad is your next step.
Two ChampGrad Formats
- ChampGrad Semi-Private (2:1 Coaching Ratio)
Our most personalized coaching experience outside of 1:1 private lessons.
No classroom. No generalized curriculum. Just riding, review, correction, and breakthroughs.
We begin by interviewing each student to identify goals, challenges, and riding history. Then your instructor builds a customized plan using every tool at our disposal:
- 2:1 rider-to-instructor ratio for maximum attention
- Video analysis using onboard and off-track cameras
- Data acquisition bikes to evaluate brake/throttle timing, lean angle, and geometry behaviors
- TTR-125 mini-bike drills to isolate and refine specific techniques
- Two-up rides for real-time demonstration at speed
- Targeted drills to address the exact habits limiting your progress
Semi-Private ChampGrad is a high-intensity coaching format with more laps, more corrections, and faster improvement. If you want “laser-focused” coaching built entirely around you, this is it.

- Traction limits and micro-load management
- Chassis geometry and how rider inputs affect it
- Suspension loading and tire behavior
- Direction control and steering efficiency
- Brake/throttle timing, transitions, and refinement
- Tire management and grip conservation at higher pace
