As long as I own a bike that will wheelie you can bet your ass I'll be pulling the front end up.

I tend to take it really, really slowly though. I still haven't hit BP yet. This year I'm working on being relaxed when the front end is up, and bringing it down EVERYTIME with the rear brake so I'm used to using it.

Alot of people say that standups are easier but they scare the shit right out of me.

And the kid that got torn apart (literally) was doing between 80-100mph when he touched down. Stay away from those $%^&* guard rails guys!!!
