bunnyhop barspins

i can land them, but my back wheel is just like 3 inches off the ground. any input on how to bust them higher? i understand its just comes down to practise, but i just thought i'd check if there was anything you have to do especially...

Get into a manual on pedals, then lurch yourself upwards, making hte pedals closer to vertical, and bring the rear up after. Mostly it's practise.

How high can you hop when not barspinning? If you want to "bust" them higher, just work on jumping higher.
