The last time we talked about bunnyhop I tried to explain it with a hurt arm so now we're going to do things right
Let's look at theory and then we'll do some tests so it's going to be interesting
The basis for this tutorial is the science of the manual and knowing how to reach the manual position
with technique That is what we are going to do first
If we did everything right our arms should be stretched our knees slightly bent and our weight fairly back and fairly low
I know it emphasizes a lot on keeping the weight down and it's because this little machine has taught me some tips and techniques that I didn't know before
If we lift the bicycle and keep our weight very high we don't have much space to push down and therefore the bunnyhop won't go very high
On the other hand the lower we start with rejection the more range we will have to reject upwards by using the bicycle as a lever
We are going to bring the handlebars forcefully towards our hips stretching our legs without bending our arms
We will no longer call it explosiveness or anything like that we will rise explosively but we will call it the push
This movement is one of the most complicated because only experience and practice can teach it since each bicycle has different geometry and therefore the sensations change
If you go too far back with your manual you'll end up doing a manual to manual instead of a bunnyhop Anticipate the pop a lot and that would be a manual to no manual
Try to hide either of these two mistakes and you'll end up with a micro bunnyhop
After the kick we'll be in a really strange position with the bike vertical the handlebars and stem between our legs
Believe me you want to get out of there quickly so what you want to do is push the handlebar forward firmly while bending your legs to get as much height as possible
And what I have to do right now is balance the bicycle to fall with both wheels together
Many people wonder why feet don't slip off platform pedals the answer is very simple
To lift the rear wheel you push the handlebars forward firmly and with practice your legs will apply constant pressure in the opposite direction
If you made it this far the only thing left is to wait for the fall
Please pass the obstacle with mercy stretch your arms and legs to cushion the fall or be a jackal and destroy your bicycle prematurely
I insist again on landing with both wheels together and your weight centered as this is the position where you can maneuver the most quickly for what comes next
Moving your weight very far from the attacking position either too far forward or too far back is a quick way to get hit
The idea of this exercise is to perform a bunny hop to jump over a large rock I placed on the floor
The first example is falling with the weight loaded backward this other example is with the weight loaded forward
In this example I saw a bill on the floor and this is the agility it gives you to keep your attacking position centered on the bike
I definitely do not recommend lifting the bicycle with both wheels together because it is not practical at all
If we think a bit the bicycle has two wheels one is
in front and the other is at the back I am a genius
And every time we clear an obstacle jump a ramp or drop off a ledge the front wheel flies off first then the rear one
I am the genius of the obvious explanation
So basically what you want to learn is how to be really good at following the bicycle and don't do it with both wheels together it doesn't work
Since we have all theory now we are going to go have some fun let's go get ourselves a good drink
So let's do some tests
40 50 60 centimeters 70 80 I can already see that from afar
In theory with this you should be able to surpass those
90 I can't skip them like a horse but I'm completely determined to get through them
So cheat
It's roughly around 60 this isn't an exact science
This is 70
A dual suspension bike compressing the bike beforehand is very helpful
For the next bicycle this would be a big step
30 centimeters
That is a bicycle you have not yet known
Some people think it's not possible to do it manually it's not possible to do it manually
Today at the very least we are going to do a 30-centimeter hop and see how far we get
40
The reason the bicycle sounded like a stick when it fell was because two of them broke to make the lock We
won't talk about that today
But it impresses me
50 centimeters with this thing
Chilean design
A manihop is a trick that can be done on a dirt bike enduro downhill or any type of bike
And it can be used on almost any section of a trail to improve your technique go faster and be more agile
More importantly than all of that having a better day than the previous one
And finally if the first thing you're going to do after watching this video is ask if it's possible on your bike
I recommend you ask yourself how you can do it with your bike
If you liked this video give it a like
If you have a friend who is learning manihop or wants to perfect the technique share it
