Burnout on a Mountain Bike

A burnout is a very fun and exciting trick, and it also challenges your skill in mountain biking.

Steps

Ride to an area with loose or sloppy ground. Gravel, sand, deep dust, and mud all work very well. Make sure that the ground is appropriate for riding, and whenever riding on dangerous terrain, go with a friend. Always have a cell phone with you, and make sure it is charged.
Shift into a high gear. Your legs can't generate 200 horse-power; you will need to depend on your ability to spin the pedals quickly to generate the power need to burnout. It might take a bit of experimentation to find the gear that matches your leg strength and ground conditions.
Rest a finger on the front brake so you can stop quickly.
Stand up on your bike and shift your weight to the front wheel by moving your hips forward to the bike's stem.
Stomp on the highest pedal as hard as you can. You should feel the rear tire break out.
Spin as fast as you can for a longer burnout. If you've done it correctly, you should feel the bike squirm under you as you throw an epic roost. Congrats, you've just done a burnout on your mountain bike!
