I think he would be even more happy being out there and doing his own scrubs! But yeah! , That pic is impressive. Actually Eli's complete race weekend was impressive , again.

Kids - "scrubbing" a hip jump is child's play and not that impressive. Try scrubbing a jump at full speed in a straight line.

Excuse me, how is hip jump defined?

I'm not sure I'd call Stewart's approach straight, but he was going plenty fast.

Actually he's vertical. He was just going so fast that he broke the earth's axis.

For Dungey, I thought this was pretty impressive. His boot is practically dragging through the dirt.

Those small scrubs aren't really that impressive. You can pretty much just lay the bike over before hitting the peak without worry(especially on sand)


This one was badass:

Do you notice watching Dungey in Sx, his big scrubs don't look as good or as low as others, but he routinely stays lower than everyone... It's like his normal "scrub" the sliding bum-whip thing he does is 10% lower than everyone else's normal small stat but his maximum scrub isn't quite as far.

I've noticed that too. His version of scrubbing height off a jump is very unique to him. I think what he does is he absorbs an abnormal amount of rebound with his legs, more than any other rider. Instead of throwing the bike sideways, he moves his butt to the side of the bike and allows the bike to spring up below him. The picture above is somewhat accurate of his style but the bike usually stays more upright. It's like they say, you control the bike with your lower body to conserve energy but Dungey takes that to the extreme. Plus this allows the bike to stay more straight with the traveling path which seems to make the "scrub" more predictable.

Yeah, but how about MC using the heal of his boot to catch the sidepanel and "scrub"... MC was farther ahead of his time in pure techniques and skill than anyone, IMO

Hasn't owned RV yet, why now all of a sudden?

And the report from Euroland has been that he's unable to sit down anymore... not from the broken ass, but from the size of his nutz for even trying that move! James will never have that problem Kissing
