How to Scrub a Dirt Bike - 3 Awesome Steps for Beginners

[@TheMxFactory]

What do you guys think of the video?? Let us know below!

[@Getman43]

The Mx Factory I think this is a much better video. My scrubs are pretty good but hopefully they’ll improve from this video. Too bad I won’t be able to ride for a while. My bearings in my back tire are looser than loose. My back wheel is about to come off! But that’s beside the point. Great video! Edit: Keep up the great videos! You’ve really helped me improve on my riding! Maybe I can come to your summer camp!

[@TheMxFactory]

We would love to have you at a summer camp! Visit our website for more info

[@rittermetimbers53]

Excellent, helped me understand and recognize another aspect of my own riding that I have been doing kind of by accident. The way you explain letting the bike come up to you made a lightbulb come on. Keep em’ coming!

[@bradystone7972]

This is a cool video that is gonna help me next time at the track!!! Thanks Tyler

[@onedayiwillmakesomecontent]

Great vid, just need bike time now. Been watching so many vids on the tube about mx'ing, feel like I am ready for supercross. But in reality haven't ridden since end of Feb lol. Damn you social distancing and Covid!! 🤪

[@dirtbikekid0710]

Hey guys I can’t believe y’all came so far! I’ve been watching since 2k subs you have taught me to ride better tanks so much!

[@vrd180]

This video should be titled, "how to soak up a jump".

[@ericw9719]

That's what a scrub is...

[@vrd180]

@@ericw9719 No. A scrub involves laying the bike over on its side as you go up the face of a jump. This redirects the suspension rebound out to the side, reducing the amount of rebound that pushes you up vertically, allowing you to have a lower trajectory through the air. That is not what is being demonstrated here. He is merely soaking up the suspension rebound with his body while keeping the bike upright. These are two different techniques, though they both have the same goal of lowering your trajectory through the air.

[@huisman111]

@@vrd180 i agree with you but i also think ''soaking up a jump'' the way this guy is teaching it is a great first step (getting your feet wet you could say) before you start to learn how to throw a real scrub.. but technically what this guy is doing is scrubbing.. dungey scrubs like this alot.. both ways take time off your lap time and thats what the real goal is.. ''scrubbing time off''

[@user-sp8eb6iz7f]

@@vrd180 This technique is a lot safer.

[@ravenhawke5]

Great video as usual guys. For those of us that grew up riding and racing in the 90's we know about sucking up the jump to stay low, and I've always looked at as allowing the bike come to me on the face by staying loose(gripping with my knees but not so much that my legs are rigid and they can still bend and flex freely) as opposed to actively moving towards the bike. Because if you're staying relaxed it naturally allows the bike to move up and down under you and and do all the work and the timing aspect seems less of an issue when soaking up the face

[@jenenwiwnnejrjrn]

i’ve watched just about every tip video i’m gonna test em out tomorrow i’m basically ken rockzen now!

[@YT1344]

YES! LOVED the video. As you said closer to my skill level!

[@zombiekiller5568]

I show my son lot of your videos to learn on his 65. Maybe start showing how to jump a little jump. Keep them videos coming

[@TheMxFactory]

zombie killer will do! Thanks for using us as a teaching tool

[@mobiledetail4you]

Always great content! Thanks longtime rider but nice to learn what I never knew I didn’t know, here on your channel!

[@KyleMx4]

need a stand up whip vid when the track gets rough. i can throw it pretty good sitting down but not great standing

[@millerpb]

Great video and explanation! Thanks!

[@MenacingDiesel]

This actually helped a lot thanks

[@TheMxFactory]

Your welcome! Thanks for the support

[@liyarussell4166]

When your on a jump is your front end supposed to be pointing down?

[@christianhaskett5179]

I have a crf150r what gear should I be in for a scrub. Should I be in 5th or 3rd gear

[@Meat_Beat250r]

Does scrubbing come first from whips? I’m trying to learn how to whip and I can do a little one but someone said I should get this down first

[@ryancaine6388]

Love the vids Keep it up

[@andreagottwald3535]

Do these same rules apply for scrubbing singles🧐🧐🧐

[@collinwood7442]

Hey some day would you make a video of shift down in the air or how to make your front end come up high when you ramp

[@TheMxFactory]

Thanks for the input🤘🏻👍🏻

[@gerardabbatte331]

Can’t wait to try.

[@willgrimes2956]

Does this also go for scrubbing rollers?

[@paolomendioro1187]

Would that be the method used by McGrath?

[@TheMxFactory]

I’m sure he’s used this technique over the years 🤘🏻

[@andreagottwald3535]

Just a suggestion.... but i think a stand up cornering vid would help a lot of people.... it would really help me, i try to do it but i dont know what corners to do it on or really how to don it at all...... just a suggestion tho

[@kieranmacca9370]

You can practice it on any corner really, but start off on corners that aren't really tight and go around the outside. Stand on the balls of your feet and just keep trying. You'll figure out what works and what doesn't. After a while you will be able to do it on tighter turns.

[@andreagottwald3535]

Kieran Macca thanks, i have been struggling with it thanks for the advice but are their any specific corners that you need to apply this technique to to gain speed?

[@kieranmacca9370]

Saucy Tube long sweeping corners can definitely benefit from standing through them.

[@andreagottwald3535]

Kieran Macca sorru to keep asking you these question and im not saying your wrong but how is standing through them better than sitting?

[@dirtbikekid0710]

Yea same down here in Texas my track has some kinda sandy terrain I can’t really ride in it

[@its_me_ruff2474]

Love those hondas

[@TheMxFactory]

you guys are awesome!

[@AndrewBoundy]

Great vid as always - thanks. Happy to be a (small) Patreon for you guys - hope you get more.

[@TheMxFactory]

Much appreciated! Thank you for the support!!

[@Trevor2497]

Is it normal to not be comfortable turning/ leaning the bike off certain jumps? I feel like certain jumps I can only go to one side due to the landing/ run up. Do I just need to force it until I’m comfortable? Great vid guys!

[@MXUnion]

Good content !

[@jettanderson1381]

What would happen if you were at a stop and you give full throttle as you release the clutch

[@justinmckeown8362]

Can you do how to ride soft sand?

[@kevinpilling3641]

I think it’s funny, when I was learning to jump I could not clear any table tops at my track, but I could hit a double every single time, just felt way more comfortable with it

[@badbiddyeightfiddy]

Y’all should do a video on how to build a jump if y’all haven’t already

[@arrowschmiedel9751]

thanks

[@TheMxFactory]

Thank you!

[@RyansGarage_]

Wait what about the actualy scrub part, like turning the bike over?

[@EverythingisFire]

They have their one from 2 years ago. This is more like a proper precursor to it.

[@TheMxFactory]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qH7MZ2SAa6ymfs0 This was our first how to scrub video. Hope this helps!

[@RyansGarage_]

The Mx Factory thank you so much! Will watch for aure

[@VariteZ]

What do I do after I learn to soak up the jump? Loved this video. Keep it coming with beginner/intermediate videos. Video suggestion: what to prepare yourself for on the vet track to get you ready for the main. Another video suggestion: What are race tips that a coach would tell beginner/intermediate riders. My parents don’t know anything about dirtbiking so I’m on my own haha. Is there anything I need to be aware of for starting races?

[@joaowerneck3297]

Friend how I wanted to learn to ride these bikes. only the bike is missing, kkkkkk available and that is not missing. let's learn from you ok congratulations excellent channel.

[@collinwood7442]

I meant to say how to keep your front end from coming up so high in the air

[@raccoon344]

Collin Wood here’s a few tips, try not to gas it too hard on the face of the jump you want smooth throttle all the way up to the face, and if it’s too high you can hold in the clutch and tap the break then it will bring the front down

[@PaNDaSNiP3R]

I’m in the bathtub and this is not what I thought we were doing at all. 😝
