here is the best bubba scrub ever redone on a MTB. yes its a scrub, but you have to whip the bike around so therefore its a whip as well.....just a really low one. if you look up bubba stewart and see his scrubs on a moto, youll see how close this one is to his
holy crap, if he were to stand there his head would be above how high it is now, when u can do a whip that takes away height u know ur pro
edit: i had no clue what that was supposed to mean XD

i got a question about whips, do u whip farther with a heavier bike or lighter bike, becuz i was thinking and came up with 2 theories. A: the heavier bike allows you to have more counterbalance and allows the rider to lean farther or B: with a lighter bike theres less of a counterbalance and allows the rider to throw the bike out while the rider doesnt move as far to counterbalance

I find a heavier bike works better because I like to be able to lean in to my whip and with a lighter bike I feel like its gona float away if I do anything but hold on as hard as I can Razz Confused
