How to do Stupidly High Bunnyhops! 

Honeslty he is

True 👩🏼‍🔧

Agree 💯 %

I would be interested to see that too

That's actually not true. If you look at the slomo from the side, you can see that the cranks stay rotated back until I'm already in the air. You can try a chainless bunny hop and it will feel exactly the same.

@@TheUselessTrials Now I´m very curious, not only about who is right, but more about what is the right technique. I teach a lot of biker and I don´t want to tell them something wrong. So as soon as I have my bike up and running I will get rid of the chain and try it. When hopping over 60 or more cm I fell like I get extra height out of the chain tension and the kick. And after watching the clip of you at about 7.25 I still think I see a lot of chaintension and you getting an impulse out of the kick, but I will have to try it myself first to conclude anything. What I´m watching is not the pedal position in general but I am looking whether there is some force on the rear cog, I think when you drop your front foot it is more like a soccer player swinging his foot even though he has already hit the ball. But hey I will test it first and get back to you. Keep making those great videos!

Will be interesting to hear your results! I'm fairly certain I don't use any pedal pressure in my bunnyhops. But 'pedal-ups' are a legitimate technique in trials. They're a replacement for bunny hops on competition bikes, because they are super hard to get onto the rear wheel without pedalling. But in that move the pedalling is quite prominent. You usually do more than one full crank - a bit like a mixture of a wheelie and a bunny hop.

@@luca.morell Did you test it?

I don't thinkt there is a difference with dirt jump bikes, as the seat is equally low and you can use exactly the same technique.

@@TheUselessTrials okay maybe take some practice will do Only thing is the bike of mine is heavy

Are your bars running too far forward or back?

@@se11459 maybe not too far forward, but almost perfectly vertical
