jouncy
Full of bumps
Jouncy describes something that bounces or jolts repeatedly—a bumpy, springy quality.
A jouncy ride shakes you up.
Jouncy music has an energetic, bouncing beat.
The word is informal and playful, capturing the physical sensation of being jostled: The old truck gave us a jouncy trip down the dirt road.
