Sequence: Brake -rotate-look-lean
I Get LOW into ready position
1.Brake to enter the turn at the right speed. Try to enter wide
2. Rotate hips and shoulders (move hips to the outside of the turn, belly button looking inside the turn). Hips and shoulders rotate in the same plane, bum sticks out to the outside of the turn
3. Look past the turn towards the exit. Don't look on front tire or directly in front.
4. Lean the bike into the turn, have outside elbow high and bent
USE DYNAMIC PEDAL IDEA !
Chest should stay low, drop heals down. Stick out high outside turn elbow
Note: For aggressive maneuver: While hips move in the opposite direction of the turn, with bum sticking out outside of the turn, upper body may lean INTO the turn
If I feel I am not making the turn, push down on the pedals to compress suspension.
This may result in two things:
a) the bike falls on the side and there is a good chance not falling with it
b) tires will bite more, turn radius will decrease and you make the turn

Cornering tip: To develop solid cornering skills
for moderate to high speed flat corners, try rotating your torso to look
into the desired direction of your turn with 'all 3 eyes'. As you
increase speed, get lower and lower to keep a low centre of gravity, to
be able to lean the bike over farther to gain traction and maintain
momentum! Have fun!
