You should reserve one instead of reversing one. Wink

The same could be said about the old guys 'jumping' in old Euro moto wearing pudding bowl helmets and 4" travel suspension. It was how it was done, for its time. Same with the 'cross-up', we thought it was "trick" as hell in 1977, but its no big deal now. What Broc was doing WAS a scrub, just not to the level James took it to. Years down the road, another Magoo/Bubba type guy will come up with something else too, thats how things evolve.

The MadSkillzMx game has me wondering if it's possible to wheelie and use the rear shock to spring you forward off a jump and pick up some time. Don't say it's not possible because I'm sure people thought the whips they do now weren't possible back then.

Stewart created the modern day scrub, just like McGrath created the nac-nac. In most instancesthe scrub isn't any faster, just look at really fast guys like RV, Pourcel, RD and Bagett, they don't use it very often and are still fast. To them it's probably an energy waster most of the time. It looks cool no doubt, but is only really beneficial on few occasions. McGrath got 72 wins without it, lets see if Stewart does that with it....

Stewart uses scrub just as much as RV, Pourcel, Baggett. If you ask me RV is scrubbing twice as much as Stewart in a races.

I don't see those guys use it nearly as much, especially over the bigger jumps, i've looked for it from them to see the difference.

Canard and Barcia are two that do use it a lot tough.

Just because they are not as crazy balls scrubs as what Stewart uses maybe 3-4 times a season they are just as much scrubs and just as effective. It`s just that Stewart sometimes goes so low that it looks like others are not scrubbing. But they are.

Dude seriously?

That was not a scrub (even though video is titled scrub), that was a turn down. Notice he left the jump face with the bike vertical, then turned the bike down. In order to scrub, you are turning the bike on the face of the jump BEFORE the takeoff.

Keep trying .....

Is this a scrub or a turn down?

That was a scrub, notice how he turns the bike on the face of the jump when it goes to slow motion, that's not what RV did in the previous video. RV did a turn down whip..

It looks cool and can be faster at times, but it can be dangerous if not done perfectly.
I think it has caused Trey to crash twice and KW once.

Old school Florida pro, the late Monte Mccoy was doing the scrub back in 1975 that would rival any of the guys today. He was such a wild man on the bike, he would try to scrub and whip the old RM's on every bump and jump on the track. I recall a 125 pro class at the Orlando Sports Stadium, Monte had a good lead, and he tried a big scrub for no good reason, chewing the ground. Awesome talent, but lacked discipline.
