I'll be fitting some flats after Torq, for this very reason. Want to learn how to bunny hop properly, and get out of the habit of pulling up on the pedals.
My technique is still pretty shit but, yeah, with spuds on jumps I would tend to pull up with the feet. Had a few heart stopping moments where I started lifting the rear of the bike and lurching forward.
