Furthest Bunny Hop

Short Description

A unicycle distance challenge where riders bunny hop from a marker and try to land as far away as possible.

Group Size: 2 to 40 players
Difficulty: schwer
Material: Unicycles, takeoff marker, measuring tape
Duration: approx. 5-15 minutes

Game Description

A takeoff marker is placed on the ground. Riders approach the marker on their unicycle and make one bunny hop from, or directly after, that marker. The aim is to land as far beyond the marker as possible while staying mounted.

A jump only counts if the rider lands under control and remains on the unicycle after the landing. Measure from the takeoff marker to the first point where the wheel touches down. The rider with the longest valid hop wins.

Variations

  • Give each rider three attempts and count only their best valid hop.
  • Run separate categories for rolling starts and static hops.
  • For newer riders, measure any controlled hop over a line instead of maximum distance.

Safety Notes

Use a flat surface with plenty of empty space after the landing zone. Keep waiting riders and spectators away from the approach and landing area. This game is only suitable for riders who can already hop and recover safely on a unicycle.
