It's called a Prohop. There isn't really any way to explain it (IMO). All I can say is, well, jump. Here's a video of me doing a prohop:

Hope it helps. |

| It's tough, but not impossible. You can't use your toes so its unlike jumping. An easy way to learn is stand still up on your wheels stick your front break for stability, bend your knees and jump. Once you get the feel for it try rolling and jumping and if you have a hard time try to tap your front break for stability when you jump. Good luck. |

| the easiest way to jump is to put your front foot down and launch yourself off it |

| well, first try with a regular pair of shoes to just jimp off your heels, then stand in place with your wheels in and jump, once u get that try just jmping while r rolling |
