Need some advice[video]

Ive been doing wheelies for a while now did sit downs for a few months then moved on to staggerd strance. I allways cover the rear brake and am starting to get use to actually using it. I still dont think I am anywhere near balance point. I clutch it hard I listen to the bike and once it comes up i try to lean back and ride the throttle up. No matter what I do I continue to gain speed hardcore. Maybe a few pointers and w hat it took you guys to get to bp. I feel like im at effin 12 0 clock sometimes just gaining speed.

Re: Need some advice[video]

your best bet is to stop everything your doing before you get hurt.

my advice is sit down or stand up which ever is comfortable to you at a dead stop keep ripping it up and practice catching your self with the brake. DONT TRY TO RIDE IT OUT. Once you get comfortable with catching your self with the brake turn the idle up and do the same thing over and over again. You need to learn brake control without it give up. Take vids and watch them after practice it will help you see your progress, learning is frustrating

Another piece of advice all the answers you need to learn are on here use the search.

Ouch what a buzz kill, I thought I was doing good and well on my way to wheelie success. Guess I try to the slow stuff and keep it safe. 1st gear just feels crazy to me.
