Super Slow-Moto: The "Bubba Scrub" w/ James Stewart

Watch an ultra slow-mo explanation of the scrub by the man who brought it to moto: James Stewart.
No riding technique has revolutionized modern motocross like the Bubba Scrub. When James Stewart hopped on the pro scene in 2002 at a ripe 16, he brought with him enough youthful exuberance to shame a Justin Bieber concert. What’s more, it showed in his riding. Stewart was always an animated rider, moving all over the bike when he was on the track.
During his early years as a pro, he developed a technique of throwing the bike sideways on the face of jumps, which allowed him to hit the jumps with more speed while at the same time staying lower than other riders. This ultimately allowed him to put power to the ground more quickly. What became known as the Bubba Scrub not only helped lap times, it also looked awesome.

You are absolutely correct, most of the people commenting don't have a clue how serious of a move that is or just hitting a legitimate double alone for that matter. I rode for 5 or six years before I gathered up the balls to hit a real double. It's amazing how safe a tabe top made me feel

Tongue in cheek of course but things like this we only started seeing in the experts when they came over from Europe.

I'll admit The first time I saw him do this I was like What in the world is that man doin' !?!? Then I watched him pass three people doing it. I was truly impressed

[@michaelstogsdill8744]

The biggest issue I’ve seen with people learning to scrub is speed. A lot of people don’t understand this move is out of necessity as James stated. A lot of guys go into it timid w/ a lack of speed and end up on the ground. It’s a beautiful move that feels effortless when it’s done correctly.

[@jbridges4530]

Truely awesome. The inventor. "I don't do it alot, but when I do, I make it count" Fun fact: if tires are off the ground I can't get back on gas to go faster. This was literally for scrubbing "hang time" by fractions of seconds. If your head to head with someone and go off the same face. Who ever tires hits ground first. Well obv advantage. The roaming single in vid prime example. Nothing like when he is a bike length behind guy and lands before him.

[@jamesnelson6381]

It also allows him to approach the jump faster. Without the scrub you have to limit your approach speed or you will over jump the landing and flat land which can be disastrous on big jumps. By removing the rebound with scrub you won't jump as far which allows you to carry more speed into the face.

[@nostalgiasoundz8528]

Why is everyone complaining that they didn't show him land it? This is his version of a "scrub" and he is the master at it. I've seen him do it plenty of times on tv and videos.

[@rossybruh9939]

his boot is draging in the dirt on the last one, freaking insane. trust, he lands everyone.

[@Maczust63]

Mac Mourning +halfasheep Lol does Ricky count when he lapped the entire field or does the 2 perfect seasons count, maby its when he beat James every week end. Dont take this the wrong way James is one of the most talented riders I've ever seen but hes not the only one

[@japslapr]

Maczust63 According to RC himself, James Stewart is the fastest person to ever ride a dirtbike, period.

[@blablafingbla]

Fred Crider III He is so fast that he rides it beyond the point where he could control it and that's why he had so many crashes in his career. A lot of those crashes cost him races.

[@japslapr]

blablafingbla I know. Its the difference between being the best there ever was and the fastest there ever has been. He stayed on the edge a lot. But, lets not forget the perfect outdoor season and the two indoor championships. He's shown consistency and I think this coming sx season will be his.

[@billyhill5667]

The last thing to leave the ground ?.....anyone ? Anybody?.... The handlebar end!! Watch the vid again till the very VERY end and you will see he brushes the dirt with his bar end and then his pinky finger flicks the dirt ! That's ultimate control if the bike right there and more finesse than a brain surgeon. I love watching these slo no films. When you disect the difference of riders in slo mo you can see why stewart was so much faster than everyone else. Everyone always talks about the raw natural talent that windham had and I'm not taking that away from Kevin but when they slow down the tape of stewart you can see he has that smoothness and talent that windham had he was just so fast it's hard to pick up on

At the top of the jump his centre of gravity is lower. He's basically made that jump 2 foot lower than it is, giving him a flatter trajectory.

[@johnd9357]

You can't accelerate while you're in the air. In the air, your velocity is ALWAYS decreasing. If you scrub the jump, you have wheels on the ground sooner and can accelerate sooner than people who choose to jump it. (meaning, they are in the air while you're already on the ground accelerating away)

[@smallaxe12]

Marty Smith ( R.I.P.) was scrubbing back in the mid seventies , the track at Herman NE had a big jump the led into a left hand sweeper , Marty scrubbed it beautifully.

Kenneth Wise I’ve seen many of those guys race live and none of them had the raw talent and “crazy” factor of stewart. He was able to put down lightening quick laps but was so on the edge that he would go down a lot. This is why he either finished in first place, or finished on the ground. He always rode at 110% and hurt is career because of that, namely washing the front end in corners, wrecklessly hitting whoops or overriding the bike in rhythm sections. He’s the fastest of all those guys on a good day, but wasn’t consistent.

[@kennethwise7108]

SuzukiKid400 sorry but speed does not win you championships, it's being smart and riding smart, both very important qualities that James Bubba Stewart does not possess.

[@SuzukiKid400]

Kenneth Wise I agree with you. That was my comment about consistency and going down a lot. If he would have dialed it back and ridden at 99% more he likely could have been the best ever...but in reality he was always throwing away races because he was on the ground from doing something wreckless. Regardless, he still was my favourite rider to watch as he was very entertaining!

No doubt James STILL holds the title of FMOTP. I say this because no rider before or since has possessed the skill, talent, knowledge and ability to carry the speed and momentum required to lay tracks as quickly and supremely as the original 259, BUT invented the scrub?!? He gave it a name, defined and mastered its utilization, made it a must have tool in order to compete at the pro level but... invented?? Ask O'Mara and Bailey c.1983-84 Hondaland. Bubba wasn't even born yet

Congrats,James !!!You really "Bubba Scrubbed" it !!!!!!!

This is insane to think about. I've been riding since I was a kid and can not imagine having the bike in that position. How do you even think to do this?

JS7 is an amazing rider... saw him on a 80cc at Broome hitting a huge downhill triple that only a few big class riders at the time could do
