Keeping clutch covered/feathering

I found this vid and notice he is working the clutch in all his wheelies. I always cover back brake and use it from time to time but have never covered the clutch. Looks to me like a fail safe from looping and I know the mechanics to pulling the clutch in during slowing down a wheelie...Whats it all about

Re: Keeping clutch covered/feathering

I always use the clutch ,slipping while in a circle or to just keep the bike up and going like after a stall then back to idle. The clutch is key!
But the guy in this clip looks like he's just trying coasters.
