i'd reccomend "the art of trials" by mr ryan leech great dvd,i think you can buy it from halford for around £20 .you can also try trashzen website ,like the dvd just on the net.steve

[rider_01]

if you don't have the money for the dvd or just cant be bothered here you go:

start by doing a track stand and with a firm pedal cick bring the front wheel in the air

then let the front wheel drop let the rear brake off a little and pedal stroke again to make the wheel rise then pull your back brake and let the front wheel drop and repeat as long as you can this will help you gain confidence on your back wheel and learn to control

when you are confident with that repeat the first 2 steps but before you leave go of the brake crouch a little in the bunny hop posistion and pedal cick bringing the bike up with you then shift 60% of your weight over the back wheel to keep you up

if you feel uncomefetuble doing the pedal cick to get the wheel up do a couple of back hops to set you off

hope this help m8
