OK heres how I can describe the position you need to be in to set up for a pigeon: 1) Say you are right foot forward, ride along side the wall/thing with your left pedal, next to the wall. 2) Then, whilst still parallel, go on the backwheel,and turn about 45 degrees to the left, so that your left pedal is still closest o the wall. Now for the move, because you're weak foot is close to the wall, its not forward so you wont catch it on the way up. Get yourself balanced nicely, then start to lean the bike over gently to your left (still based on right foot forward) Soon you'll find the point at which you feel most comfortable to swap up (its not too much of a lean btw, just a bit to help you) and then you just pull up with all your strength, shoot your arms forward to put the front wheel in the air, and tuck your back wheel underneath you. Its not a tricky technique but it seems to be one that takes alot of practice. Also only use you back brake when you land. Not during setting up, not during the switch and not during "flight" This will help so much once you're used to it
