Hit me up Bobbles....I show you the way....
Tire pressure plays a role, but it's really much more about weight transfer. Your tire is skidding because you're not transferring enough weight onto it as you're applying the brakes. I need to work on mine more too, so hit me up and we'll go out and roll some.

Re: tire pressure for endos?
works the same as wheelies, less presure is more stable but harder to steer...
start with 18-20... go from there. some like more, some less...
I run around 25psi
Edit - if you are skidding, work on weight transfer, that is the key. Assuming you have a nice front tire. lower pressure will help you hook-up.

And if you need a good tire, I've got an extra Pirelli Supercorsa Blue Dot take-off sitting in my garage that I'd sell ya. Best tire out there, IMO. Have only locked 1 stoppie since running that tire.

Yeah, start off lower till you get comfy. I run 35 on a power. It MAY lock up but it's predictable.
I picked up a 110 instead of a 120 front today. I'm anxious to see how it works. It probably won't.....
