Thanks a56kuser, I went out for a practice today & I think I know my prob, for some reason I'm locking my right arm more then my left and kind of twisting my upper body. I got no idea why I"ve been doing this. By the end of practice I was getting them rolling nicely. ( still small) but heaps better. A mate said I do lean forward BUT when the back starts to get to a good height I start to leaning towards the rear of the bike. I'm just going to have to keep at it. Anymore info would be helpful.
CHEERS!! I'm still grinning like an idot after today!

well at the point your at i dont think i can help anymore...... just go faster i guess to compensate for the height....... of course if you bring it higher you can roll it longer, but highchair endos arent something i wanna bring too high........ i happpen to have a video of myself doing highchair endo while i was still learning.... this is a short rolling endo but i could of held it longer.... its jsut that for highchair endos you dont wanna come to a complete stop just incase you cant start off again. especially if your gonna try one handed highchair endos cause the clutch is not pulled in and you can die out anytime ........ going at the speed im going seems good enough for now.

i guess the only solution heere is better height and speed if you want....
edit: oh yeah i dont know if you do this but this helped alot when i was still learning........ watch the video and right before i do the endo you can see my bike dip forward a little bit.... i tap the brakes once before i initiate the endo..... it gives me a feel for brakes so i know exactly how much to apply.... you should give it a shot it helped me out.

Thanks for the tips a56kuser, that video is the sh*t! I've got to get mine on film, that should help a bit. I have never even thought of tapping the brake before, like in your video. I'm going to try it next time i'm out.
