  1. You can only jump as high as you pull up your front wheel. So you need you pull your front wheel up higher to jump higher. Trying pulling your bars all the way in your waist and then hop.

    Just hopped pretty high dude. You’ll get better at it from jumping onto and over things. Find a way to incrementally increase the height of something and practice practice practice

  3. Hop up anything and everything, try to find something a little higher than the last highest thing you hopped each time you ride. I Always find the challenge of getting up something will always pull out of me that extra little juice

    In my prime at 14 years old, I could bunny hop a 5 gallon bucket. Now at 49, I can barely bunny hop a curb. Lol.

    What? That looks pretty high, especially for only 2.5 years. You could totally get pegs onto a railing already. How much higher you need to get?

  6. Have you tried bunny hopping up higher obstacles? It forces you to get your front wheel higher and suck up your back wheel.

  7. Best thing I ever did was use my phone’s slomo camera feature and film some hops (you could use a slomo feature on some editing app or something if your phone can’t film slomo, but the footage will be lower FPS). And then I compared to good, well controlled slomo examples on YouTube.

  8. That was pretty good. You need to come back more though, push your feet forward and down as you bring your front wheel up.

    And yeah like others have said, practice over obstacles. It can just be a cardboard box or whatever where it doesn’t matter if you hit it. Psychologically you’ll just go harder if you’re going over an actual obstacle.
