No handed circles... (on both wheels)

I'm along way from wheelie circles but the other day I got bored working on wheelies and endos and stuff so i tried like riding no hands and trying to ride around in a circle no hands with the idle set high. How the hell do you guys do that? Most impressive one i saw recently was in the last 256n vid where he was like going in a straight line but bounceing back and forth from steering stop to stop and then going into circles... Everytime I let my bars go all the way to the stop my bike is turning in like super tight radius turn... whats the trick do getting these down?

use rear brake and lean out on the bike to increase the radius of the circle...

if all else fails stand on the cage and rear peg like kyle woods

It's all in the rear brake. Turn the handle bars to the lock; then push the brake when you feel the bike highsiding, and let off the brake when you feel it falling into the circle

I've seen one of the starboyz do it too. I'll give the rear brake a try, thanks everyone.

I checked the stuntwars videos, and he keeps his right foot on the rear brake.
You would have to have EXTREMELY good balance to do those with out the brake
