- just as you hit the bump, clutch in and let go of the brake
- when the rear wheels clear the bump, re-engage the clutch
As for gear selection that is entirely dependent on you and the size of the speed bump.
This formula works flawlessly every time, excluding bumps that you have to crawl over because they will cut your car in half. ITs the smoothest way to get over the longer ones and short 1 footers I assume you are not asking about the tiny, sharp ones shaped like mountains - for theses there are no techniques, just go straight and VERY slow.

This is exactly what I do. It all depends on the severity of the bump though.
lol @ the videos - thanks for posting!
