Safety is our top priority when it comes to the pump tracks. Our pump tracks are designed and built according to the highest safety standards and comply with relevant standards and guidelines. This attractive and inclusive sports playground consequently represents a safe environment where both the youngest users, as well as everyone else, can enjoy and develop their skills on almost any wheeled sports equipment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

We have written a lot about pump track safety<\/a> in the past. Since bikes remain the most popular tool for riding on pump tracks, we have teamed up with Bike School Pekoll<\/a> to further elevate the importance of safety. Bike School Pekoll is not only our partner in this year’s Austrian Pump Track Series<\/a>, but they also stand behind a new blog series – Back to School. With their years of experience teaching kids (and adults) how to bike properly, they will be highlighting key safety topics, riding tips, and much more, starting with the proper and necessary gear to use.<\/p>\n\n

Biking has never been easier than on the pump track<\/a>. Whether you are a complete beginner or preparing for the race of your life, the pump track will teach you how to do it better, faster, and safer. With a proper bike and helmet, you are ready to explore the world of pump track riding.<\/p>\n\n

Which bike is the most suitable for a pump track?<\/h4>\n\n

Basically, almost any bike will work, whether it’s a balance bike, a BMX, a dirt bike, or a mountain bike. However, if you want to get as much as you can out of a pump track that has its own movement specifics, the best choice is a compact bike – just the right size to fit you – with little to no suspension elements. Most ambitious pump track riders use a BMX or 26-inch hardtail with a suspension fork and a well-functioning rear brake for speed control. The principle here is clear: „Less is more“<\/p>\n\n
