You have some really good video's showing reality of learning these skills, I would say you are already an above average rider! (you also remind me of Steve Carell) I don't even know why, apologies if you didn't want to hear that, ha! Just got myself an older te250 4t husky, used to ride a small amount of trails/lanes over here in the UK but had quite a long time without an off road bike so still fairly rusty. The slow wheelie (or any wheelie) for that matter is still something I really want to master, getting over an obstacle is the next lol. I see you haven't updated in a while, good luck and look forward to the next vid.
Thank you very much for watching and especially for commenting. The slow wheelie takes time so stick with it and DON’T give up! I’m moving and will be posting videos again. Thank you for the encouragement and boost! Oh by the way, I have quite a few comments on me looking like, Seth Meyers! Thanks again and please update me when you make some progress on the slow wheelie.
@@NaturallyCaffeinated That's good to hear, hope the move goes well, have sub'd and look forward to the new vids. I shall try and video some wheelie practice in-between track day prep of my Daytona but few and far between. All the best. Cheers
Thanks for sharing, it's not easy to make ourselves vulnerable but it will help motivate yourself to improve. I'm in a similar situation, even bought a trials bike to help with the intimidation factor. It is working but like you said practice practice. Best of luck I think you're doing great. I also watch Rich btw, he's really motivated me as well.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate your comment and encouragement. At one point I thought about getting a trials bike as well but ended up buying this YZ250 to aid in my development (still love my Beta though)!
Major props for putting yourself out there...as we know, youtube comments can be brutal Also like how it shows the reality of learning a complex skill. Wheelie, then wheel placement, then weighting and unweighting, plus timing it all too. I practice this on my trials bike and it's definitely easier. Translating it to the dirtbike can be tricky with the suspension and flywheel being so different. Question on your YZ..what plastics are you using? I think polisport makes a bright yellow set for the YZ.
Thank you for watching AND commenting. You are absolutely right, some comments can be brutal! I used the Polisport Flow Yellow kit. I wished I had access to a trials bike to learn technique but it’s all good. Have a great day!
@@NaturallyCaffeinated it’s really helpful to see you struggle, because those are probably all the same things I’m going to do wrong or it helps identify things I don’t even know I’m doing wrong.
@@hickokaviation2249 Once you start to record yourself "learning" these techniques you begin to truly learn. The learning curve on the double blip is pretty steep. Clutch control and timing are key here. Good luck! Would love to see a video of where you're at on this technique.
@@NaturallyCaffeinated I’m trying to learn the timing to pop up the front wheel right now. Filming oneself is a huge help to calibrate what we think we’re doing and reality. Everything feels bigger in the moment and then in video it’s usually underwhelming. 🤣

Great stuff. Yup that's a pretty big log. I think it's awesome the practice you put in.
nice progress! very tough to do! love your YZ250 btw and the colors!
Thanks you!
I noticed you were using the front brake on the first ones, good job. I have to try that this season.
Thank you! I’m going to continue this technique until I master it!!!!!

No more double blip videos?
Thanks for watching and thanks for the follow up! I wasn't sure if anyone wanted more videos. Now I will make some follow up videos.
