 Good point about scrubs, most of the moves described as a scrub look more like whips. When I think of scrubs it looks more like what the motocrossers are doing where they lay the bike sideways before reaching the lip:

 A Mx scrub will look abit different cos you got faster speeds , more weight ( giro mass ) plus you got an engine to help out when in the air ! If you scrub height and speed then it’s a scrub however it looks !

 Cathro, this is proper good. Your content is the best thing for WC DH racing, in a long time. Who do we have to bribe to have all your videos this length? This is actually amazing

 Damn, I'm at work trying to pretend to be working while I watch this without sound. I bet it's really good with sound. for now I just make up words in my head that they are saying, like......Greg Minnar is fast as hell, you can see here that no one is faster than him and there is a reason why he has so many world cup wins, in fact he rips so fast that the roots in the ground actually move out of his way....same thing rocks, the rocks actually roll out of his way.
