Feel like I can finally say I landed my first bunny hop today!! I've been struggling with pulling both wheels off the ground at the same time but I started doing drills to fix that issue and I'm finally getting somewhere. I know it's not anything crazy but I am super excited to be able to train the skill and start jumping over things!
That first blurry photo was my first hop this morning and the arms and legs separation just started making sense after that!

good technique too! if you take advice id say try to find little obstacles to jump over or onto like a curb or maybe a broom handle part, what helped me was jumping over lines on the ground (like parkinglot markings)
Rock on!!! Persistence is key! I crashed probably 1000s of 180s before I finally landed one
Let’s go mate keep going
What GeneralSignificant54 said.
Practice manuals. Then start your bunny hop like a manual. You will go way higher and be happier.
And find things to jump over. Isaac Newton proved it’s impossible to bunny hop 2 inches higher than you have to.
I found the best thing that helped me along the way when I was younger was watching where I wanted my back tire to always land, I used parking lot stripes and man holes, the further back your lean is, pull up and push or punch, and at the same time pushing back and lifting will allow you to really tuck that rear tire in. JUST my opinion but anything helps! Keep it up man
