Hippie Jump

Roll under a bar or gap, jump straight off the deck and land back on it…

Difficulty
Easy
Can you do it?

The lowdown

Roll under a bar or gap, jump straight off the deck and land back on it while the scooter keeps rolling underneath you.

Fun fact

Great confidence builder. It teaches you that the scooter will still be there when you come down.

Tips

Jump up, not forward. Keep the bars steady with one hand if you need the confidence.

Why it isn't working4 common mistakes

  1. Jumping forward off the deck. Push straight up from the middle of the deck so the scooter keeps its line.

  2. Pushing on the tail as you leave. Take off from flat feet; pressing the tail or nose sends the deck off course.

  3. Losing sight of the scooter. Watch the deck roll under the bar and land on its middle.

  4. Rolling in too slowly. Carry enough speed that the scooter is still moving when you come down.

Why it's Easy: It is the bunny hop with the deck left behind. Simpler than it looks because the scooter does nothing clever, but you must trust it to keep rolling under you.
