Trials is a specialty of off-road cycling in which the rider has to face obstacle courses without resting feet on the ground. Technique in this sport has a great importance, since it reduces the risk of committing penalties and allows more efficient execution of the gesture. To improve technique, the motion analysis allows to study the gesture both qualitatively and quantitatively. In this work video analysis was used to study the side hop from rear wheel technique. Two different executions of this technique were analyzed. The primary purpose is the identification of the phases that make up the technical gesture. It was given an explanation to the movement strategies adopted in the execution of the jump in the two different situations.
