 i've watched quite a few cornering help videos, must say this is the best one, talks about diferent scenarios, instead of ''how to corner on a perfect berm'' props Salute

 He did a great job on explaining everything and you can see whats he is talking about when he is riding on the clips.
This video should be a temlate for other "how to riding" videos!

 Sweet bikes from great companies are cool. I've met a number of rider/owners over the years, and they all get stoked on people digging their wares. Transition Bike Company has evolved as a labor of love by guys who still skip out of work to go ride, and they go big. I know I'm biased, because they live and work here, and I see them on the trails, in the grocery store, and lifting a glass at a movie premier (when they're not in the hospital...Bradical), they organize trail work crews and get everyone from groms on up pumped to ride.

They ride what they design, and are stoked to see you having a great time on the trails, regardless of what you ride. The TBC crew are the real deal, and great members of our community. I'm sure they are a little more recognizable in this area than they would be if they were in Temecula (props to Intense, stopped by there a while back to look at the shop. Sweet). I think it is their proximity to the Meccas of the freeride world, their dedication to riding and building community that truly speaks to riders and hence elicits comments like shred'n Ben above. I don't see his comment as something exclusive to TBC, but something to celebrate about this company and how it exists in the wider MTB community.

NBD though, we're each entitled to our own perspective. Light's charged, school's almost out for the summer, and I'm jonesin to get out and rail some bermed right-hander-to-flat-left corner and work on the flow!

 Mr. London,

That particular berm's entrance is quite steep too, and hard to rail for us mere mortals. Amazing how he gets so much pop coming out. I'm going to have to hit that again tomorrow with this vision in my mind. The weather's been pretty wet since January anyway so it is in similar condition... That is how we (like you in the UK) get comfortable in the wet stuff.
