I just got back into riding after 20 years. I was gonna say my city just built a skatepark I've gone to a couple times, but seeing that CMOE sign at the end of the clip tells me you've probably been to the same skatepark since I live in Evansville 😅
To bunnyhop higher you need to be able to jump higher. Once you have the concept of using your legs like he showed in this video, it's all legs after that. You can work on jumping higher without a bike and your hops will automatically get higher. Another thing to keep in mind, a riders height. I am only 5' 7'. I had a friend who was about 6 feet tall when I was riding street all the time back in the 90s. He had no problem bunnyhopping onto this stage, which was about chest height. He made it look effortless and he even got up onto it in a manual. I eventually got up onto the stage but it took me a lot more effort and strength to do so. If you are a shorter rider, you can still hop high but you will have to work for it a lot more than a taller rider.
Not entirely true the front wheel can only go so high and if you’re not springing that back up and tucking you’ll just push the front of the bike down it’s a bit of both
You’re clearly pulling the bars closer to your hips and you’re standing up straight before you even use your feet for the bigger jump. In other words the front wheel determines the height of your jump.
Not necessarily although that is part of it. You can pull the front wheel up as hard as you can, but if you don't know how to lift the back wheel or "push" off your pedals for that extra height it wont matter. Once you get better at bunnyhops you can also lift the back wheel higher than the front if you want to.
If you want to bunny hop a 2’ high chain and you’re only lifting the front wheel 1’ high leg spring isn’t your friend. Figure out how to pivot off the bottom bracket and get your front wheel 3’ in the air. Not that easy for most people.
Whenever I try to bunny hop, my feet always come off the pedals and when I try to place them back I lose them and it’s just a ugly mess. I have the right shoes and all, I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong per say.
That's a pretty common issue. Watch our full how-to and that may help. Watch as many as you can because my technique to learn them varies to others and so forth. Find one that makes sense to you and continue from there. - Mike th-cam.com/video/Cygbi400OJw/w-d-xo.html

Do you like ... hold the bike with your feet somehow . I dont get how the bike gets pulled up by your feet
Tucking the bike up is the part i cant seem to get down. ☠️ Gonna keep trying.
We need more BMX riders in the world. I miss my old days lol Good video
Bmx thanks 🥰🫡🤝🤝🤝Bmx
This is my #1 issue and Im finding it so hard to solve 😭
Thanks man I've been practicing bunny hop
Yo I got so many cardboard boxes in my garage. How has it not ever occurred to me to use them for jump training?
I guess not skipping leg day might be a good idea after all hahahahah
BMX: the gangsters personal bike
thanks man, I have been trying to figure out how to hop higher👍
That’s me from 6 months ago lol

Bunny hop is like an Ollie in bikes😂
Dont try it over the CHAIN or UNMOVEABLE objects! Please, I have dentist appointments for the next 3 months!
Bunny hopping a chain is not a good choice for little kids. Ride safe
Big hop guy 😍
What if your bike weighs 39 pounds is that bad
it is actually the front tire that needs to higher in order for the bunnyhop to go higher.
You wanna try i again and see if you can make that make sense?
Not entirely true the front wheel can only go so high and if you’re not springing that back up and tucking you’ll just push the front of the bike down it’s a bit of both
its like the petal is stuck you your leg when you do it

How could I lift the bike tire?
But how with a freecoaster?
I CAN HOP HIGHER THAN DANS COMP
Work on your core muscles too

use a pine cone or something to bump the back wheel off of , this will teach u how to hope
Sweet
Thank you alux , your have Made my life easier with your support and efforts 💯💯✌🏽💜
Chain hops high risk. I had a buddy loose a bunch of teeth from casing a chain.
Very nice most tutorials don’t explain the secret is in the legs
I used to be able to bunny hop high enough to throw in a full cross-up, but now I'm 51 and my knees are fuct.
Excellent video and will practice this more!
