But isnt that for BMX's and i ride a Trials bike. Whats the difference is it harder or something

theres no difference in technique!

But some bikes are harder to bunnyhop than others, due to geometry and set-up :)

A good technique to help you learn is to stand over your bike with your front front on the floor. Use JUST your back foot to lift the rear of the bike up. Don't use your brakes at all!

Then move on the rolling along at a slow speed with both feet on the pedal, practise lifting just the back wheel off the ground. Remember don't use your brakes for doing this.

This will help you learn how to 'unweight' the bike.

On a bmx the process is a more relaxed cos your weight is a lot further back - you kind of manual into it rather than yanking the front up really hard - pull up on a bmx like you would on a trials bike and you shoot off the back and land on your arse.

That's the only major difference in terms of the basic technique.
