start on a long shallow hill, going up it,

pull away wheelies are easy, you can rev to 8k and slip the clutch and keep the revs up, use back brake or pull clutch in to bring her down again

2nd gear wheelies while moving about 20mph , shift body weight back and the sametime slip the clutch at higher revs like 10k, controll it on the throttle and rear brake, and some clutch when u get a feel for it

clutch isn't needed really but easier to get going

get praticed before gear changed wheelies, tbh the dt isn't the easiest to wheelie for beginers , 4 strokes are piss to wheelie

I just pull the throttle and shift the weight a bit back and pull the front up with my arms, Then when i have the front wheel up high i shift into third. Then just pump the gas to hold it up on the point of balance, then shift to forth.

I havent managed to use the brake to control it yet..

the brake lever is abit to low on the dt, put a piece of wood on it to make it easier to reach

i always cheat a bit and hover my ass just off the seat (transfers the weight to the pegs through your legs so lower centre of gravity) then it'll lift on the throttle biggrin

 I never thought of doing that, gonna have to try it. Probably one of those things I sometimes do but don't think of it, always have trouble getting the front up in second but then sometimes it comes up easily lol.

And yeah i think the brake lever is a bit hard to reach too, but i guess i just gotta get used to using it while wheeleing.
