To me, this is the most important how-to I've ever made. I've been putting it off for ages waiting for a perfect opportunity, but that wasn't helping anyone. I got out of bed this morning with a mission to make the best how-to bunnyhop on CZcams. Did I succeed? You be the judge :)
This is the first of what I hope to become a series of sequential beginner how-tos. Each week I want to have a new how-to that builds off the last one, or that is a logical trick to learn next. That way our fans who are new to bmx can learn along the way! (This does not mean less of other videos at all).
I might want to note that I don't really plan or script any of the weird random things in the video. It's more of a - this is really boring what can I grab off the kitchen table - type deal. I try to make all my how-to interesting and entertaining even if you already know how to do the trick. It's funny because I completely forgot how much I enjoy making how-tos, but this video rekindled the fire. I'm stoked!!!!
If you do already know how to bunnyhop, please give a quick read through the comments section and give ONE PERSON who has a question a helpful reply. We all know what it was like to be at that beginner stage eager to learn however possible. As easy and self explanatory as a bunny hop may be for some of us, it may be challenging enough to discourage some people from really getting into bmx. Let's help each other and keep BMX strong.
I've also enabled community contributions, which will allow you guys to add subtitles and closed captions. You don't have to, but if you speak another language and could translate it I'm sure it would be beyond helpful to some of our international viewers!
Thanks for watching!

Skylos Foxtrot u cant fail at parkour its not that hard

I was 32 in 2019. Pandemic hit. Things locked down. Had no job but plenty of money saved thanks to my minimalistic lifestyle. Forked out $1200 for a custom bmx. Started riding after 6 years off. Today, I can do a huge array of tricks, grinds, manual for 100 yards. Refound my love for bikes again.
I still can't do a bunny hop :(
@@anotheryoutube4635 Keep trying. It helped me to get the bike up off the ground by working out my shoulders and back at the gym two days a week. give it a shot :)
based oldhead
im 34 now, just started riding after 2 decades...
@@yams_za God bless you man. Keep it up, it is such a great activity and makes you feel like a kid again! Keep that going as long as you can: life is short man. Peace ✌️
“ the bunny hop is the easiest trick” me: shiiiiiiiit I can’t even do a wheelie
lol same i cant wheelie either
I can but can’t bhop
Practice to do a manual and then paddle
I can manual but can't wheelie lmfao
Same😂😂😂
Adam: 3:38 "Thats Not Gonna Happen, I promise"
Me: Tries it
Also Me: *Faceplants on the ground*
Dont let it stop you the only way to get better is by face planting on the ground 😂
Lol keep trying
Oh god I was about to try it........
@@zahrah4504 bro don't (about to try ) in bmx ur gonna get injured look up any bkx rider vids it takes multiple tries to get that perfect shot for the cam and wrecks happen . Hell look up bro bmx riders and the injuries they've sustained. If u want to get better don't be scared
Oof
I can bunny hop but I’m just watching this 4 years later in quarantine 😂
_MXKX-21 _ same
Me to
Me too😂
Yup
Same
When he said most of you are failed skateboarders I felt that. 😂
Damm that happened to me but I stopped because I was breaking so much skates and I couldn't afford buying one per month
Same and I don't wanna talk about it
Well ....... that’s me
Been skating for 10 years but shattered my ankle so I got a bunch of metal in it and no full movement so I bought a second hand bmx to have something else to ride and strengthen my ankle
I was a kid and I couldnt skate so I went bmx 😂😂
3:38
Adam: "I promise that's not gonna happen to you."
Me: *In the hospital*.
My problem is that my bunny hops are actually too high. I easily clear anything I try to hop (garbage cans, 12 stairs, moving vehicles, national monuments...) riding has become stale. Is there any way to make your bunny hops lower to the ground?
+Poppa Punker put less effort in the height and power you put in the bunny hop to go so high but more in the technique that way your bunny hops will look a lot better but they're lower
hahahahahahahahahahaha
+Poppa Punker Try taking your toes and not pointing them down to the ground as much
Just keep going higher, try hopping on and off of your house.
+Poppa Punker don't shift your weight as much really. For me the height of the front tire, which pretty much dictates how high youll prob be jumping, make it not go as high as you probably do. So once the front is like a couple inches off the ground starting picking up the back. The back can only go so high before your nose diving.
5:17 how did you know
“You’re probably a failed skater”
Me: nah bro what are you talking about 😅
Me to!!
"im just gonna use my bunny you guys can use your dog your cat" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Step 1. Buy Vans
Step 2. Buy skinny jeans
= bunny hop pro
helped so much thank you
hmm i followed those exact steps but it doesn't seem to be working? any help?
steo 3. buy a bmx?
ahhhhh right that's where I'm going wrong.
actually vans have a really good grip
5:16 I've never been so personally offended
GET OUT SKATER
I also got offended lmao, I stopped skateboarding because of a back injury tho
bruh i was searching for somone who said that 😭😂
🤣🤣🤣
Same hahahahaha xd bruh but I'm not gonna stop skating xd. I'll just have fun LoL
Im just starting to ride again after almost 15 years. My first day in the park I kept popping both wheels at once, and not going very high. After watching this video I started practicing doing front wheel then back wheel (even just over a crack in the sidewalk) and that was the biggest help to me. By the end of todays session I was bunny hopping properly over a line of water bottles (standing upright!). It's not huge but it's big for me! Thanks for the tips!
thanks man I really appreciate this! I’ve been practicing for a few days and now I can do really high bunny hops!
On 4/4/19 was the happiest day of my life, I had a Walmart bike and when I was riding down hill fast and the chain popped off I fell off then the bike the just ate it. So as I was walking home I see this bike on the side of the road that was box, so ask a neighbor if it was anybody’s bike and he said so no and let me keep it. Right now I’m fixing it up 😃
And soo bryson started his bike stealing lifestyle
On that day, Bryson didn’t want to play Fortnite anymore, he wanted to be a thief.
Ok guys stop if you read it clearly the neighbor said that somebody did not own it and he let me keep
@@brycewantland1804 lol nice story bro lol they clearly didn't read your whole story

Yo just be cool no hate in this game just chill homie
Old but Gold :D Thank your for this "How to" ! I bought my first BMX today and after ~1h i masterd to hop over the piece of wood without touching :P
The thing that he said at the end was so true this has really helped my confidence as a totally new rider and aster like 10 minutes of trying and failing I finally pulled my handle bars up really excited to keep going and learn so much more. Thanks so much 👍
Haha you're a wizard. I am definitely a failed skateboarder
fuck off
im not a failed skateboarder im just taking a break from i know cuz my knees have gotten reallly bad from it since its suck a high impact sport. recently ive been trying to get better at bmx xuz its kinda fun
+Clay Mork nope im a failed skater
I'm a non failed skateboarder that wants to bmx and it's way harder than skateboarding lol
i kinda think its a bit easier to bmx than skateboard. but so far im only on the bunny hop so im not going to judge yet
Adam, I’m 25. I’ve never bmx’d in my life. But watching your videos even your old ones are inspiring me to get into the sport.
ive never rode a bmx, first day i got on one (skipped step 3-4) and got it the third try, less than minute. This def works.
much luv
I've been riding BMX for about two years and I've never been able to bunny hop mostly because no one taught me I've always just forced my bike off the ground both wheels at the same time. So thx for the vid helped so much
After about a 1.5wks of slow progress, I got a lil bunny hop. On the way.
How is it now
@@rafifathoni635 i ain't rode on a bit, but I'm understanding how to throw my weight better so I'm not using my arms.

Him: I promise that wont happen to you
Me: loses confidence
Me:try’s it and dies
Happened to me first try

Adam: You will be able to do it in 10 minutes
Me: Been trying for over a year and have not been able to do a single bunny hop xD

Just discovering you and your videos. Coming up on 49 years old and, yeah, I can bunnyhop, but your videos are awesome and your personality is amazing!! All hail being helpful :) :) :)
I didn't fail skateboarding. I failed bmx in the 90's when there were no CZcams tutorials. LOL! I'm ready to try it again. Thanks for the tips. :)

+Angus Millar true
Thank you, this video helped me a lot. I was sure I couldn't do a bunny hop because of the weight of my bmx but yesterday I saw this video, today I went out and hit my first little bunny hop. Now I'll work to do it better but thank you again
Not a failed skateboarder been there done that :-) great fun.
My kids are getting into BMX so I want to show them how liberating a free style sport can be e.g.: skateboaring, bmx, scooter, rollerblading. (yes in that order) and I will only show the first 2 :-)
This video is, imho, the most instructive and most from the beginners viewpoint... great job.
Im starting to BMX, transferring from skating because I wanna try something new
Mr.BrandonTV dude same
I snowboard too. And have been for 6 years, but when there is no snow, I want an action sport
Mr.BrandonTV same and i think it looks cool

Fresh new to BMX racing and I need to learn bunnyhop so I can clear jumps, gonna practice thanks to your video 😁
I just bought a bmx! I’m excited to do this today!!!!
I’m that much of a failed skateboarder that I broke my arm doing a ollie
Running olie?
I almost did and not moving but my skate broke
Haha
dude my first day i broke my wrist on a freaking manual! 😄
Haha
Do I look pro yet
Me:u look better than me on the bmx
This was helpful thx. I’m 46 and just got my first bmx. Huge thumbs up
This helped me how to bunny hop. It makes more sence now. I used to only be able to lift my front and hitting obstacles with my back tire. Thank you
I don't have a bmx bike and I really want one and I'm watching this
(Edit) I have a subrosa bike now and thanks for all the likes and replys
Max Koenig same but im buying next week
Well their really cheap at Walmart
@@oldhandsanitizer6990 and really bad
Max Koenig I started by just using Walmart bikes but they brake fast but if u go online u can find really good mongoose bikes between $130 to $170 and they are just like real bmx bikes they last forever
if you are a beginner you could probably start on a kink gap or whip those are both really good beginner bikes for their price
Hey Adam and I just wanted to let you know that u inspired me to start biking and I just wanted to thank u for that because u cheered me up and keep up the good work have a very nice day and congrats on your engagement
Me too
+Gaven Lavers Same he inspired me to start bmxing
Omg me too :)
And yes thank you
Same here
+Gaven Lavers me to
There needs to be more tutorials in this type of style. Even if you already know how to do it this is still a good video to watch
Thank you for this man, new to bmx yes after being a failed skateboarder but your video helped alot 😂
you're good at explaining stuff, thank you
Brayden Nienhuser, me and you have the same name Bray-den

Thanks man much appreciated! Btw great video love the editing and funny parts lol.
Thank you!
Subbed! You have lots of helpful videos. Easy to understand and they are broken down well with some humor. Some of the best how to bmx vids I can find! :)
+Adam LZ your amazig
+Krissy Carr I agree
+Adam LZ what is your bike size
thank you a lot! I am a 10 year old and I've been bmxing since I was 4 but I'm just now learning how to bunny hop. I can lift my front wheel up, but I've been doing it the bad way and I really needed some pointers on how to bunnyhop.
I know this as a prohop. I learn myself the same way but over a 2×4 price of wood. I can't actually "bunny hop" over 2 inches to save my life. But that trick you said with pointing your toes down now I can prohop or whatever over a foot high on flat ground thankyou
I thought you were jumping over the car in the thumbnail
@Rickmartin cardino bruh how many ppl u gunna b asking to sub???????
zazzle777i yeah me to

Appreciate your work man, thank you! Learning this tomorrow.
I’m 22 years old and man do I wish we had CZcams and cellphones like this growing up☠️☠️ literally taught myself hours in the street and now these kids are literally learning under 10min🤣🤣🤣 I was a failed BMX turned skateboarder/snowboarder and now I’m trying to get back into it
Thank you so Much for this video, you added a lot of great tips that we’re not in other videos, I learned how to Bunnyhop an egg carton in not even like 20 minutes.
I have been doing bhops all my life. They always felt somewhat stiff, and a little hard. My maximum height was around 85 cm. BUT holy shit, I have been holding my wrists wrong my entire life... That easy trick made it sooo much easier and more natural... Way to go Adam, cheers for the vid!
I studied perfect bunnyhop in one week after saw your video...
Thanks brother
thanks for doing this video.I think that it will help me.This is one of the easiest ways that i have seen yet
DUDE FIRST YOU GOT ME INTO BMX WHEN I WAS 10 NOW YOU GOT ME INTO CARS!
Had my son who’s 12, watch this and now he can hop more than 12”... on day 2. Thanks a ton Adam!!
Cap
I came from a trials background and I was searching up tutorials on bunny hops so I could effectively explain it to my students but I know in trials we put about a quarter turn on the cranks while on the back wheel to get our extra high side hops so the steps for a standard american bunny hop in trials is lift front wheel turn crank to flat shift your weight forward and anywhere else at the same time if you need to do a side hop or 180
Lmao I love the call out in the middle video saying most people anyways came from skateboarding because they failed and sure enough that describes me ha.
Jaocb Brummett same bro same
Jaocb Brummett fukin same bruh ankle injury from skating killed meh
Shelby GT 350 same

Lol guys, I am a mountain biker, and ik how to bunny hop and everything on a mountain bike, but then I got this amazing idea I wanted to get a BMX bike.... Hasn't worked out too well just yet. I can't do anything on a BMX yet.
Can u do a dual car check yours and Nicole's?
yesss
Tri car check with the 240
+chris olson better
yaaaasssssssss
Yessss
Thank you Adam! It took me a full day but acheived.
probs the best tutorial ive seen
I cant lift my back wheel up. Even though u tought us how i cant.😫 and im getting frustrated
You have to picture your bike moving in a rainbow shape. When you are in the air push the bars forward and if you have enough height your bike should naturally pull the back wheel into the air following the rest of the bike through the rainbow shape. If you are just lifting the front wheel, maybe you have too much body weight forward and bending your arms, which will just make the wheel slam right back down quickly. You can also use the rubber grip on your shoes to help lift the bike with the pedals
I used my leg muscles and i tried it today but i still don't know how to combine them
Maybe you need a lighter bike
@@davidrivera6465 He should be able to do it with a heavy bike because its possible to do it with any bike. When he's older he'll buy a lighter bike and do it even better because he had to learn on whatever he had available.

Found a mongoose in the trash and been watching videos on how to wheelie and bunny hop. Bikes dumb heavy but reminds me of a GT performer I had back in the day. Thanks for the tips. Hopefully I can teach my kids when I master the bunny hop.
Hey, a bunny hop video that finally made sense. Thanks.

You’ve always been my favorite, I’ve been watching you since 7th grade and got me into bmx, and I I couldn’t bunny hop until I watched this video about 3 years ago and now I’m in 11th grade! It’s just so cool coming back and watching this video

My brother got into bmx after he stopped skating. I still skate but he hates skating! This looks pretty cool dude
I'm a downhill mountain biker. I ride a 20 kilogram enduro bike. Tried a friend's BMX for the first time in my life, went for a bunny hop on my first 5 seconds on it, looped out really really hard cause I'm used to my long, heavy bike, and fell on my tailbone. 2 weeks later, still unable to ride or lift anything or do any physical activity because of pain. 10/10
I literally bunny hopped in 5 minutes 😭 I didn’t know it was that easy
Black Nemo did you use these techniques
Midori Avila no tbh just ride and lift your front tire and just push forward it’s probably the simplest way to say it but I jump over benches now and it’s so fun 😂
