Ok, i know scrubs are pretty tough, and i can only get so much help over the internet if any at all, but i reached a problem; i cannot scrub! I am very good at dirt jumping and the "bmx" aspect of the sport, so i feel as if i have enough skill to do it, i just dont have the technique? Any help appreciated. I practiced on rollers today, they were mellow on a green circle trail, so no gnarly rox or drops, simple rollers that you can fly into(and off of)
I tried doing "tabletops" on them, and while it "worked" its alot of effort and cant be done very quickly, while i stay low, i end up getting more air doing the table than just rolling off of it.
this was my next idea, that was to "squat" and table, worked slightly better, but sketchy when i land.
This last one is the most "correct"I basically "whip" but keep the bike tucked inside me and infront of me as opposed to below me. This works really well on jumps, because i can stay very low this way (the lowest for me) and on a jump i can bring the whip back and get a very good pump, it is GREAT for tabletops and doubles, but useless for anything else, as i land in a 75 degree whip (no time to bring it back on a 3 foot roller or G out) Theoritically if i could manage to bring the whip back, i probably would keep it this way.
Lastly is the basic squat, which works ok, but is very limited
