How normal is front wheel hop on Sun USX trikes?

My personal experience: Riding on paved roads and gravel bike paths,
there are a number of crossings where the road is higher than the
trail. Crossing the trail is sometimes better walking the trike
across, because when starting out "uphill", the front wheel will
sometimes lift slightly because of the torque needed to get going.

This occurs whether the "uphill" portion is on pavement or gravel.

Your thoughts?
