Well I'm far from bein a pro. But I guess I can give you some advice. Come in kinda hot... like high 2nd gear while you're learnin. Slowly squeeze the front brake to load the forks. then kinda "pop" the brakes... not too hard that you'll flip... just enough to bring the *** end up. then ride them softly to make it roll out. I'm not very good at it. but gettin it slowly. you're probably doin the same thing I was when I was tryin to learn them. Just continuously squeezing the brake harder and harder and wondering why it doesn't come up and you just come to a screaching halt. I'm sure some much more experienced people will be able to give you a better explanation of how to do it. but I'm bored so I figured I'd throw my in for ya. Good luck!
