TESTIMONIALS

Everette was a pro. Highly knowledgeable, thorough, answered any question I had as a new adult rider moving from road bike to MTB. Highly recommend!

Everett was a great coach for my son who is really interested in mountain biking. The 4 hour class taught him all the basics, fundamentals and safety skills needed to keep learning while being safe to enjoy the sport. I was really impressed with Everett's knowledge about the sport...he gave great feedback after the lesson and took the time to answer questions. Additionally, he covered all the skills taught in an email so my son can reference the document when he goes and rides on his own or with friends. Additionally, since my son is new to mountain biking he gave recommendations on bikes and groups to join. I know my son is looking forward to taking a more advance course with Everett next time. For anyone interested in learning or would like to fine tune skills, Everett was wonderful and we would highly recommend him.

Everett is an amazing coach! I left the Fundamentals course with a strong conceptual and practical grasp of position on the bike and the range of motions required to navigate trails. Everett was patient and accommodating, our session had a late start due my late arrival. We were still able to drill the core curriculum and focus on the most important skills while still fitting in the breadth of the curriculum. I look forward to continue working with Everett as I progress! I recommend the Fundamentals course to anyone looking to refine their MTB skills.

Everett is an awesome coach. I have been riding for a few years without any formal instruction, and I learned more from Everett in the four-hour Fundamentals course than you could learn from days of watching YouTube videos. He is an excellent communicator and great at breaking down mountain biking skills into their core elements so that you can take what you learn and continue to apply it on your own. I have so much more confidence on the bike after the class and can't wait to hit the trails to apply what I've learned.

I will definitely be back for more advanced instruction. Highly recommended!

Three of us took a half-day session with Everett. We had different abilities from newbs to vets, and different areas we each wanted to improve. Everett did an amazing job finding ways to boost all of our skills. If you want to get better, Everett is your man!

Great coach! We did the Fundamentals course and it was well worth it! Everything is explained clearly with plenty of practice and review. Honestly this was a game changer in my confidence to MTB more technical stuff. Thanks Everett!

Everett is very knowledgeable, patient and kind. I definitely recommend taking lessons with Marshmallow MTB!

Everett is a fantastic coach. I've been riding for a few years and wanted to work on drops. Within an hour he had me riding a drop I've been looking at for two years and didn't have the nerve to attempt. He's great at communicating what you need to do and how to do it. And he's a super nice guy. It was a lot of fun working with him. After the lesson he sent a very detailed follow up email (with videos) going over everything we had worked on. Really helpful. Highest recommendation.

10/10. Definitely recommended. I’m new to mtb and wanted to learn the skills first before I develop bad habits. Everett was knowledgeable, friendly, and he prepared the course very well. I had a blast in my course. The combination of skills and trail riding not only gives me a chance to put new techniques into use, but also is a very enjoyable and fun course layout. Look no further if you want mtb training.

We had a lesson for my 10-year-old son. We recently started riding MTB bikes and wanted an introduction. First, Everett provided amazing basic information about biking; we practiced emergency braking, simple maneuvers, and learned the ready position. Second, we had a practical ride on the Walnut Creek trails. My son was really happy and inspired to continue his MTB journey.

Had a great experience with Everett. Communications and logistics were super clear, he was very careful to narrow down to a specific goal, even for our first class, and we had a great ride. Definitely was well-tailored to our interests and skill level, while pushing us a bit.

10/10 Amazing experience with my intro class with Everett. He was very knowledgeable, and patient. We went over all the basic skills I needed, and gave me the confidence to do my very first trail ride. At age 40, it's not easy to pick up new skills like this. I'm so excited to continue to learn. Everett was communicative, and professional. Looking forward to taking more classes.

My son loved his Intro to Mountain Biking class with Everett! He learned so much and gained the confidence he needed to start biking more. Everett was great to work with, communicating with us before the class to learn more about what my son's experience and goals were and then after the class to summarize what they worked on and gave us some suggestions for gear. A big thanks to Everett for making the entire experience so great!

A huge thanks to Everett for kicking off my son’s new love for mountain biking! We weren’t sure what to expect when signing up for an Intro to Mountain Biking class with a friend, but Everett far exceeded our expectations. Prior to the class his communication was wonderful by asking our experience level, equipment, learning desires and working with us to find a location convenient for us. A few days before he sent a detailed reminder email with a pin of the exact location to meet and good info such as have the boys hydrate the day before, wear sunscreen and more! The actual class was fantastic. The first 1/2 hour he ran the boys through safety and drills so they were ready to ride the trails with him for the next 1/2 hour. My son was geeked about the entire experience and now has the confidence to get out on the appropriate level trails. Lastly, Everett even followed up with a very detailed email describing what was learned and some great recommendations on how to make riding even more fun for the boys in the future. I highly recommend this experience!

I had a great session with Everett. He was very personable and professional; did a great job explaining the elements, then demonstrating and then coaching me through them. The curriculum was well designed and structured. I really got a lot out of the class and had a great time! Definitely recommend!

We had a great session doing the Fundamentals Course with Everett! I highly recommend Marshmallow MTB. I've been mountain biking for years but have never had any formal instruction. I didn't realize how much I didn't know. Everett broke everything down to the basics and built on it from there. He is a patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic teacher. I plan on coming back for the advanced course once I've had a chance to practice what I've learned!

I had a great time. This was my first time mountain biking. It was challenging and fun.

He was very knowledgeable of trails. The teachings was awesome and I would definitely recommend to all riders.

Even experienced riders need Continuing Education on the bike. Technique matters, and Everett's training gave me the confidence to try 4 to 6 ft drops that previously scared the heck out of me.

Everett Sheble is an amazing couch.  I went to see him when I was super new to mountain biking. He really helped give me the skills and especially the confidence needed to try new things. After only a few months, I'm making the big climbs and nailing steep drops without hesitation! Everett has certainly helped take my mountain biking to the next level, making hitting the trails so much more fun!

I am a new rider and was nervous about taking a course because I was worried about being embarrassed because of my skill and if I was even ready to take a course yet but I decided to go through with it anyways. Clyde was my instructor for the intro class that we had at Walnut Creek. I’ll just start with the fact that Clyde was so great. Clearly very experienced and knowledgeable, which I’d expect but also extremely patient with me and a great teacher. He made me aware of so many things I hadn’t thought about before like my position ahead of time going into certain parts of the trail and where to look during each process and how to approach things. At first I was nervous about things but he really worked with me where I was at in my abilities. I didn’t feel pushed to do things I wasn’t ready for or made to feel bad for not being ready for something. I’d highly recommend Marshmallow MTB based on my experience. Nice to feel like I got what I paid for and not a gimmicky class where they don’t really care about what they’re doing.
