I've been trying to master the side hop with a 24" wheel but I always
end up leaning to the left when landing. I cant seem to get the weight
distribution even betweeen my left and right peddle. Anyone have any
suggestions on how to correct what I'm doing wrong?

Learn to ride seat out, and seat out hopping, then seat drags. This
should help with the distribution of weight on the pedals.

don't hop perfectly sideways, hop a little bit turned towards the
object...like put your wheel at about a 45 degree angle to the object
you're hopping to. should make landing easier. and make sure to only
use one hand on the handle, use the other hand for balance and to throw
your weight towards it and stuff.
hope that helps....
