Just casually balanced while static

[@Hi-di6fd]

Grips to the hips has been the best advice. Not perfect yet but can definitely ride a wheelie for a while now!

[@lnsupplies]

Your balance is insane!

[@TrialsProgression]

Heck yeah pat! Thanks for these and keep the basics coming. I appreciate you breaking it down into these smaller bits. Especially when talking about throttle, clutch, foot pegs pressure, breaking - sometimes it all happens so quick so this helps when you explain each component 👌

[@PatSmage]

Good to hear! Sometimes it's hard to remember to include every little detail, but I try since if one is missing it might not work as well.

[@Hahzi]

Absolutely the best video I've seen on how to wheelie

[@snomanizdman]

The world would be a lot happier place if everyone knew how to wheelie!!!

[@PatSmage]

Agreed! Just doing my part to help haha

[@Dandandarts]

The grips to your hips tip has helped me progress a lot. Cheers Pat 👍🏻

[@PatSmage]

Good to hear!

[@sometimes_riding7008]

Same! One of the best tips I've had

[@smacdougall100]

Another fantastic tutorial, thx very much Pat! You explain very clearly what you're supposed to do; the only problem is that you make it look so easy, lol. I guess anyone who does anything really well makes it look easy 😊. Thx again, these are really appreciated 👏👏.

[@PatSmage]

Thanks for the feedback! That is part of the problem with trials, it can look easy when it goes right. But people don’t always realize all the time put it to get to the point of making something look easy.

Balance is key ❤

[@xxbstpagexx]

Great video. Thank you.

[@Cross-Country-Biker]

Thanks Pat, interesting about using higher gears

[@PatSmage]

Gotta know what each gear will feel like! Sometimes you have to wheelie before or during a 3rd gear climb so it’s smart to get used to it practicing on flat ground since it doesn’t come up as quick as a lower gear with similar rpm.

[@Cross-Country-Biker]

@@PatSmage I will try that thanks

[@kallolmohanty]

Thankyou so much

[@AshokKumar-wz2wl]

[@PatSmage]

Sherco 300 Trials bike. www.shercousa.com

[@motomatt6752]

Grips to the hips got it. Probably should try some more practice on this
