A jump up when you first lift the front wheel, then the rear wheel, and land on both at one time.
How do it
Your basic bmx jump. Probably the first thing you should learn, since most other tricks will utilize it in one way or another. What it is jumping upwards by first lifting the front wheel, then lifting the rear wheel — and landing on both simultaneously. The bunny hop allows you to jump over obstacles whether or not you're on the move. You can learn it on any level surface. We recommend you pump your wheels up to at least 3 atmospheres (45 psi).
1.
Ride standing and bend your elbows.
2.
Now begin pulling the handlebars towards you and leaning backwards, lifting the front wheel to it's highest point without turning the pedals.
3.
Extend your arms forward and upwards, thus pulling the handlebars from under you. Meanwhile, jump up slightly and bring your legs up to your frame.
4.
The bike will level out in the air. Land on both wheels simultaneously.
