This simple trick will double your bunnyhop height!

#jeffkendallweed #howtobunnyhop #jeffkendallweedridingseminar
The bunnyhop is one of those “must learn” fundamental mountain bike skills, but did you know there’s a secret trick to getting a lot more height out of them? It’s called the bump jump, and it’s applicable whenever you’ve got a small obstacle, such as a root or rock, that you can use to provide additional resistance and preload to the traditional bunnyhop technique.
My friend Christopher Kelly and I have been riding together for years and years, but he’s primarily a cross country and cyclocross rider, where as I’m an aging BMXer and downhill/enduro guy. Chris has certainly noticed that I’m constantly 3-4 feet above the trail- and this particular technique, the bump jump, is a big part of how I’m able to do that.
If you have a moment, check out Chris’ business, Nourish Balance Thrive, and he has an EXCELLENT ancestral health podcast: nourishbalance...
