Re: Wheelie School???
Or you could just read the "HOW TO WHEELIE" post somewhere on this site. Its a pretty detailed explanation and I'm guessing the "instructors" at this "school" are going to tell you the same thing the "HOW THE WHEELIE" guide talks about. They rest is put on you to practice. you can either spend money and practice with them, or do it in a lot for free.
:YEAH

for some one who is completly illiterate and has no friends or no spots and the money to waste go for it. other wise best investment is to find a local spot were the local pros practice and tear it up wit them and learn off of them

if you can find someone near you that makes good wheelies and have them hang out with you for a few hour and help you.
recording yourself also helps so you can see how high your actually bringing it up

Re: Wheelie School???
I was actually thinking of buying my dad a wheelie school class though for x mas because in the last couple months hes went from hating stunting to after seeing me do some stuff to thinkin it was kind of cool. he got on the geared bike and wanted to try to wheelie. so I was thinkin it would be fun experiance but I wonder if starboys or who else else has schools would have something for people who can already wheelie like an advanced thing....

I taught one for an unnamed school. I was teaching level 2, the advanced program. Nonetheless, all I was doing was telling them everything they just learned in level 1 was wrong and trying to fix peoples bad habits they picked up. NOT worth the money unless you're old and have too much of it.
