In mountain biking and even BMX riding, the bunny hop

is a bike trick that involved the rider lifting the

bike up and over an obstacle whilst remaining in

motion on the bike. Knowledgeable bikers can lift

their bikes in excess of a meter or a single and a half

feet. The globe record for the bunny hop stands at

4 feet.

The bunny hop is executed by approaching an obstacle

with speed, lifting the front of the bike then

leveling the pedals. If the bike has total or front

suspension, pre-load the shocks by pressing down

on the bike just prior to you reach the obstacle.

Once the shocks have been pre-loaded, the rider

will spring upwards, pulling up with the hands and

feet at the same time. Toe straps or clipless

pedals aid with this, although if plain platform

pedals are employed, it really is nevertheless achievable. As the biker

lifts, the hands will roll by means of twisting the

throttle. Following the object is cleared, push down

on the bike then absorb the influence with the arms

and the legs.

It is frequently instances a misconception that a bunny hop

with no toe clips is attained by rotating forward

on the handlebars. Lifting up on a mountain bike

even though standing subsequent to it is very tough to

hold on to the deal with bars.

The bunny hop is quite popular with mountain biking,

as seasoned riders can make it look a lot easier

than it in fact is. New mountain bikers really should

practice a lot before they truly try the

hop, as carrying out it on a larger obstacle can easily

be very hazardous.

With proper practice, the bunny hop can be accomplished,

even for beginners. All you have to do is give it

some time and work, and you are going to be pulling off the

bunny hop just like the pro's do it.
