I had the same experience when first trying to hop
make sure your cranks are level with the ground when you are hopping

Shouldn't be. I have my strongest foot on the back pedal and I jump
fine.
Just watch trials videos and practice.

I'm the second one to have had the same problem.
It's common sense really, but try leaning forwards more.
