This was a really good video, thanks for the great tips! I realized that I had this fear of overshooting to the back, o I never really fully commit to throwing my weight back. Instead of trying to find the sweetspot like this it is definitely better to learn to overshoot and land on two feet... seems so obvious now that you showed it, but now I finally have something to properly train and try to improve my Manual/Bunny hop! Thanks man!

Broooo I finally did it! Thanks man i watched many videos but this actually teached me❤❤❤

I've watched MANY videos about how to bunny hop. And I learned something from each. However, I could not lift the front wheel in any meaningful way. What I learned in this video made it happen. After watching this, I went out and started to lift my front wheel consistently. I am not YET doing bunny hops, but I am in the process like I was not before. Thanks!

Great, thanks for this clip because am going to practice on it and I'll be back to bring every progress.

Your “Why you can’t…” videos are so good, I hope you make more. I’ve watched tons of tutorials trying to learn to jump and bunny hop and just wasn’t getting it, until now, everything just clicked. Cheers!

Great vid! I think the way you approached this video is exactly what I needed to learn it. Makes total sense and can’t wait to try it.

@MTBdropIN

I know I’m working on both those things lol

A lot of people just can't get the jump worked out once in manual position with front wheel off the ground (because it doesn't feel like a stable 2 wheels on ground balancing point). Try putting your front wheel up on a small wall or log and get used to that feeling and technique of launching up and forwards from that wheel raised, body weight low and back position. You'll start to figure out the balance between jumping forward OFF the bike, and jumping up and forward... then bringing the bike up with you by pulling/throwing arms up and forwards and scooping legs up also. Try watching some trials rider vids as they back hop up obstacles from static, or clear big rocks etc with front wheel already raised on top of rocks.

I see so many guys teaching to do a bunny hop, but they all seem to be teaching how to do it on a full suspension bike where you can compress your rear suspension to assist. I would love to see a video on how to bunny hop on a hardtail because it seems like it would be harder without the ability to compress a rear suspension. BTW love the channel and videos!

As you stand straight up your feet will naturally switch there weight forward to level out the bike, you can’t stand straight up without send the weight of your feet forward

Great information and one question. I’m focused on arm extension and trusting my brakes. I’m having difficulty when I practice looping out with my feet getting stuck to my pedals. I have long pins in for increased grip. Thoughts?

Thanks for the video man! I can do small hops now but when I try to do a bigger hop after the manual can’t get timing right and feels like I’m too far down and back to stand up. Are you initiating shifting your weight forward and up after the manual with your legs/feet or or arms first? At the same time are you pulling on the bars to stand up?

MTBdropIN thanks. Yeah I’m more stuck in the second part after the manual lift... I can’t get the timing and motion right when you’re supposed to stand up

Here’s a take I’ve found helps when teaching/learning. As you do the L move, squash down then PUSH the bars as far away as you can without letting go and also give a push through your feet. Then pull back on the bars to help you jump up. Don’t forget to draw your feet up.

MTBdropIN I am throwing myself fully back with arms extended to the point of my shoulders almost popping out of their sockets. I still cannot get into that proper manual position. I think it is because I am only 12, so I don’t weigh much. Do you have any tips to overcome my lack of weight and get more power backwards? I can American bunnyhop, I think, but I can barely clear 10 cm.

Yes it will

Try extending your arms WHILE keeping your legs bent. You’ll get wayyyyy more pop. It’l feel awkward at first, but that’s the way to do it. Extending your legs back like your doing puts your body too dark back and robs you of all the available mechanical energy to “jump”. Hope this helps.

@Petr388

That could be due to different geometry which could not suit you or bunnyhops in general. Because me myself I was only doing bunnyhops on FS bike. 2 months ago I bought dirtjump hardtail bike with unusually long reach (dirtjump bikes are usualy very short) which suited me perfectly, I am tall (186 cm) and since DJ bikes are perfect for jumps I started to kill it in bunnyhops. It was so much easier than on enduro bikes and with half effort! I reccomend to buy aggresive geometry hardtail or even dirtjump bike to progress your jumping skills.

@Petr388

4 жыл бұрын

It also have to add, that HT bikes are easier to bunnyhop in general. You can be more precise with more rigid bike, it is also lighter (if you compare same frames, same geometries) and you waste less energy, since there is no suspension to eat your preloading energy
