How to Master Riding Berms on a Mountain Bike: Tips and Techniques
Berms are banked corners designed to help you ride faster and smoother on a mountain bike trail. To ride berms, approach the corner with speed, keep your weight low and centered over your bike, and lean into the turn as you enter the berm. Look ahead to anticipate the next section of the trail and exit the berm with speed and control. Practice and gradually increase your speed to become more comfortable riding berms.
