[QUOTE="berm buster, post: 83974, member: 22786"] Hey Roost' Um, I think you are incorrect in your way of brake sliding, squaring the corner etc. Whatever term you want to use, they all mean the same thing. As you say, you want to get most of your braking done before you enter the corner, If you do it your way, Your bike is not going to have enough speed or momentum to "slide the rear tire, thru the corner" I have never seen anyone"coast" thru a corner, when they are trying to "square it". I am not saying it can't be done, I am just saying I havent seen it. Also,When I said they ride the berms in racing, I wasnt referring only to SX or MX, I was speaking in generalities. I gave Pastrana as an excellent example of someone who "squares" most of the corners he rides, again, he does not do his braking before the corner, he brake slides thru the corner. What I did say about berms, is when some of the riders are riding in the berms, squaring the corner, would be one of the ways you could pass them. as it is a faster way thru most corners. I think you got the general idea of what I was saying. [/QUOTE]
