Beginner

This is simple, but scary to learn.  Basically you jump over the bars.  One of my freinds learned it first by jumping from the top tube instead of pedal.  It's good to learn this, 'cause when you get more advanced, you can bar hop the opposite way, like bar hop from a steam roller to a crack packer for instance.  Jesse from www.bmxcrew.com will show you how in this video.
