Riding a section with tight berms can be a daunting experience, especially if they are down hill switchbacks. There are a few key things to think about in these situations and simply applying The TRS Standard will have you ripping through those sweet berms and smiling bigger than you ever imagined!

Here are the key points to remember:

1) Vision: Eyes high and looking ahead. See where you are going and be cognizant of where the trail is heading.
2) Entry Point: Come in as far outside as possible to give yourself as much room as you can. Enter high on the berm and....
3) Inside Pedal UP: I prefer to get that inside pedal up to unweight it in case I need to get that foot off. I also want the outside pedal down to give me a firm base to stand on.
4) LEAN THE BIKE: This is gonna be relative of course, but you need to at least match the angle of the berm with your bike.

Have fun out there! #howto #richdrew #mountainbike #bentonville
