bunny hops

Small bouncing jumps

Bunny hops are small jumps performed with both feet together, knees bent, mimicking how a rabbit moves.

Children do them in games and exercises.

In cycling, a bunny hop is a technique for lifting both wheels off the ground simultaneously to clear obstacles: He bunny-hopped over the curb.

The move appears in skateboarding and other wheeled sports with similar mechanics.
