Camp Amped puts ten EUC riders on the Amped Electric Games grounds in Bentonville, Arkansas for three coached days, September 28 to 30, 2026, ending the day before race weekend opens. The coach is Christopher Brady. The format is not a clinic bolted onto a festival: it is three full days of riding, filming, and video review on the same ground where the season finale runs, capped at ten riders so nobody spends the day waiting in line.
What Is EUC Racing Coaching?
EUC racing coaching is structured instruction for competitive electric unicycle riders, delivered as multi-day camps or event clinics. Race coaching differs from learn-to-ride training: it assumes you can already ride, and works on line choice, body position, terrain reading and race craft. Camp Amped is the sanctioned version, run under USA EUC, the national sanctioning body for electric unicycle racing in the United States.
What Is Camp Amped?
Camp Amped is a sanctioned three-day training camp run by Amped Electric Games at its Bentonville venue, September 28 to 30, 2026. It runs two separate discipline tracks: EUC with Christopher Brady, and Onewheel with Josh Ledford. Each track is capped at ten riders.
Every day follows the same loop: ride, film, review, correct, repeat. Riding sessions are recorded on track, and each afternoon closes with a video classroom where coaches break the day's footage down on screen and set the correction plan for the next morning. There is no timed racing at camp. The measurement is the footage.
That correction loop is how Brady already works an event. He describes catching problems early rather than after the fact, since "there's always some things that aren't going as planned, and we like to catch those early and correct everything." His conclusion: "So a mistake is never a mistake. It's never not worth it, because we make things better through mistakes."
Brady has coached riders informally at events for years, and says the length is what makes this different.
"I've seen it all the time, just going and riding with people, and I've never had three days that I could spend with people that really want to get better," he said. "So I'm really excited to see the progression that they're going to have. In those three days, I know they're going to be better, and probably going to put people on podiums that want to be on podiums if they want to."
Who Is Coaching the EUC Track?
Christopher Brady, who races as @wheeliebrady, has been part of Amped since the first event. Before EUCs he was a ski racer, on skis from five years old and coaching by the middle of high school, and he does not treat that as a separate career. He also spent eleven years as a ski patroller, which is where the risk management side of his coaching comes from: he has spent more of his working life managing what happens when people get hurt on a mountain than racing on one.
"The similarities between skiing and EUC is like identical," Brady said. "So everything that applies to ski racing applies to EUC racing. Body position, mindset, everything."
That background shows up in how he coaches: structured progressions, body position first, and a strong preference for volume over analysis early on. His standing advice to riders preparing for a race is to stop timing themselves and get miles in, in his words, "Riding just lots of miles, get lots of miles on your wheel, get real comfortable on your wheel." He is also blunt about where progress actually comes from: "You're not going to learn as much at high speed as you do at slow speed."
What Is Actually Holding Riders Back?
Asked whether riders coming to camp need psychological or physical training, Brady put a number on it: "Mostly mental. It's probably like 25% physical." Asked what the single biggest limiter is, his answer was one word, twice: "Fear. Fear. That's it."
His account of a rider breaking through is not gradual.
"They're just like in their shell pretty much. Like you need to crack their shells," he said. "And then once they get cracked open, they're good. They fly. It's crazy."
The method behind that is putting a rider somewhere failure is cheap and letting them find the limit on purpose. At King of the Hammers he told Archer Chew, who was afraid of cutting out, that loose sand was the place to find out, because falling there does not hurt. Chew started leaning as hard as he could, learned the wheel would hold it, and carried the acceleration back onto firmer ground.
Why Ride the Track Before Race Week?
Camp runs at the race venue, which means three days of laps on the ground that decides the finale. Brady's argument for that is repetition: riders who have run the course until it is routine arrive at race weekend without spending their first runs learning where the corners are.
What he wants riders to leave with is not one memorized line.
"You want to be able to be anywhere," Brady said. "So you want to be able to be on the inside. You want to be able to be on the top of the berm. You want to be able to be all over the track and be comfortable because you don't know where you're going to be in a race."
There is a standings argument too. USA EUC scores a rider's best two results of the season, averaged, and the Bentonville finale is the last scheduled points opportunity on the 2026 calendar. As Brady put it, "So Amped is going to be another and maybe the last opportunity of the year to get points. That's going to be a big point race right there."
Who Is It For?
All riding levels are welcome, and Brady's read on how fast a beginner can close the gap is not theoretical. "The last event we were at, we had a guy, taught him for 30 minutes," he said. "Next day, he was racing with us, and he kept up on a smaller wheel."
Coaches assess where each rider is on day one and adapt from there, and there are no separate skill tracks inside the camp: every camper rides the same three-day arc, moving from fundamentals and base control on day one, to flow, jumps and line choice on day two, to integration and a personal roadmap on day three.
Camp is open to riders 14 and older, and no prior race experience is required. Riders under 18 need a parent or guardian to sign the liability waiver and to be present on site during sessions.
You bring your own wheel. There are no loaner or demo wheels, and Brady's recommendation for anyone intending to race is an off-road wheel with a knobby tire, regardless of voltage. Riders between setups are asked to reach out before registering.
What Does Registration Include, and What Do You Bring?
Tuition is $949, paid in full at checkout, and covers the full three-day curriculum, on-track filming and the end-of-day video classrooms, an Amped Electric Games event ticket, an official Amped jersey, an onsite camping spot, and lunch plus a hydration station each camp day. Charging time and outlets are built into the midday break. Camp tuition is non-refundable, and spot transfers need approval, so read the payment terms before checking out. Checkout runs through Stripe on behalf of The Electric Angels, the nonprofit that operates Amped Electric Games, so that name may be what appears on your statement.
What you supply is your wheel, your charger, camping gear if you use the included site, and full protective equipment. There is no loaner safety gear, and riders without compliant protection, an approved helmet above all, do not go on track. Brady's own list is blunt: bring a lot of gear, "Your helmet, your shoulder pads, chest, back, legs. Padded shorts." A full gear checklist goes out in the pre-camp packet after registration.
Spots are held first paid, first confirmed. As of August 2, 2026, one of the ten EUC spots remained open. Registration, the full day-by-day schedule, the FAQ and the payment terms are at camp.ampedelectricgames.com. A second Amped camp, three days of EUC coaching at King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley, California, is listed with registration opening soon.
