BMX - how do u do a bunnyhop?

how do u do a bunnyhop?

you dont.

First you need a bunny of decent size....

Use the search button there are at lest 5 other threads that have bunny hop tips.

I'll answer this ONLY if your serious and have no clue. If thats the case, PM me.

How do you do a bunnyhop?
You don't.

Lol, ok just saying this...its pretty simple...Basically lean forward, then i sort of pop a manual and then pull up and even out in the air..i just learned how to bunnyhop up a curb :)...yay...with my first day with my bike

Lean forward, do a manual, and then pull up.

Yeah, that sounds about right... in Crazyworld (tm).

First you find some type of firearm, doesnt matter the type as long as it's loaded and saftey is off.

Then you put it in your mouth and give the trigger a gentle squeeze, dont tug it, thats the first mistake alot of shooters make. If you tug it your shot will not be as accurate. Try to hit your brain, you probably wont get it the first time because it's so small, but keep trying and as soon as you get it you'll be able to bunny hop.

Wow. I'm not even going to answer that.

Whoa whoa whoa! Hey now!

Oh, no, not at all. That's perfect. The Gonz himself couldn't have explained it any better.

This (http://www.bmxbasics.com/new/bmx1095.html) is the best article I've seen online describing it. The only thing better is actually talking to somebody and watching them do it.

Here (http://www.bmxbasics.com/new/bmx0703.html) is another good one from the same place.

you pinch the seat at first with your knees, bjut when you get better it comes naturally

Yeah those are both good articles and videos too watch!

No, you don't.

If you pinch the seat for a bunnyhop you'll probably hurt the skin on your legs, just learn to grip the pedals and start small. Work on them for a while at slow speeds without hopping actual things, then grab an empty coke can and hop that for a while, then build up.

You could try making a hop stand to practice on, like in this vid:

Actually my dad made a better one after that, with cement bases and PVC pipes, but still. Timing is really important, even if you can get 2 feet sometimes it's hard not to hit the bar on the way up or down, so it helps to practice.

Don't pinch the seat unless you're doing barspins... and even then you don't really need to.

Only mountian bikers pinch seats in barspins.

Probably not appropriate for here, but since I know you were joking, I'll let it slide. Reminds me of that cop from the US that got busted in Thailand for having sex with an underage girl. While he was in jail, he managed to get the service revolver from a sleeping guard, and he killed himself with it. Now, I'm not one to question this story, but apparently, he shot himself in the head. Twice.

Misfire?

Haha. I was kidding... if I wasn't kidding I would have edited it to make it work... duhhh.

Liar.

Bums on fire

Bums on fire
That wasn't part of that saying... was it?

Edit: I just thought of it... it's pants on fire, not bums

... he killed himself with it. Now, I'm not one to question this story, but apparently, he shot himself in the head. Twice.

You aren't questioning the story, but sounds more like uh, someone helped .

BMX1992, have you checked out any of the videos, and can you now do a bunnyhop? You've had three days to practice.

East Hill

almost i cant really tell but i am really trying to

Let us know your progress. We'll want photographic evidence, too.

East Hill

but how can i get the back wheel off the ground? i get the front wheel off but the rear i grip the pedals and really try but it wont come up so how can i get it up in the air?

Push up hard on your handlebars... almost try to push through them.

alright, now i get my back wheel off the ground bout 1inch, but how do i get the front and rear off the ground at the same time?

wow

I said something before... I guess it got deleted? What I meant was that he should be more specific because he said to get both wheels off at the same time... and you shouldn't do that.

That wasn't part of that saying... was it?

Edit: I just thought of it... it's pants on fire, not bums

Whoops, oh well, you got the point

You have to pull up the front and then the back. Watch the videos and look at the pictures on the bmxbasics site, it'll help. Like I said, start small. My neighbor only learned how to hop last year, and it didn't take him too long after he started to hop a little over 1 foot, and he was only 12.

wow

It's a start! Practice makes perfect, or something like that. Obviously BMX1992 is working hard on bunnyhops, he'll get there eventually.

East Hill

He needs more helium.

He needs more helium.
Hahaha.
Edit: You mean less helium... he shouldn't even run tires.

i got the bunnyhop, after all this practice my highest hop was 2 inches, how can i make them higher? o and i took out the helium

You're not pulling hard enough. You can get at least a foot without really tucking much at all... After you can get that high, tuck the bike up to get it higher.

wat i do is crouch down than, jump pulling up my handlebars and then pushing them out, is this a bunnyhop, if not than wat is it?

You don't crouch down... it's a common mistake when you start out. Just push your weight to the back of your bike like you're doing a manual.

Just do what the pictures show in this article:

See, in this one she's going to hop the box, that's how you want to be before you hop something, THEN you pick the back up
