How to Bunny-Hop is a basic to BMX. The Bunny-hop is jumping in the air with your bike, without the assistance of a ramp.

This can be frusterating. There are more than one way to do this, but I find this way to give more air:

While moving forward, pull up on the handlebars. When your bike has pulled back as far as it will go, jump and pull your bike up with you. It helps if you use your feet to pick up the bike. To get more air, bend your knees as your bike comes up. Prepare for the landing.

A good way to learn to jump up/over/down obsticles, ledges, or gaps is to get a small box such as a shoe box, and get up some speed, and jump ove it. Later, as you progress get bigger boxes such as computer boxes used to hold the computer when you first but it.

NOTE: Boxes are good, because if you miss the jump, they collaps. Coke cans also work, but are not tall.
