hey all. im doing a project at school and i need help with it. im doing 10 easy steps to riding a berm so if you could all through me your ideas it would be cool... if your wondering its going to be an oral presentation. thanks
i just start high and stay high in on the berm, pedal the whole time and tuck a bit depending on how sharp it is

Setup:
Brake Early, get speed right
Stay upright until you hit the berm
Come in low on the berm
Action:
Don't brake in the berm
keep to upper-middle of the berm (too high and you may blow the lip)
Keep body as upright as possible, whilst leaning the bike underneath (helps to be tall)
Keep centre of gravity low - bend knees and stay low (helps to be short)
Exit:
Keep looking at the exit point, not obstacles
bring front wheel off berm end and follow with rear
straighten out
Hope for your sake thats right, no guarantees:p
