Don’t know how to do a wheelie on a MTB yet? Then let Rob Warner and Tom Öhler teach you.
On the surface the wheelie seems nothing more than the most rudimentary of adolescent cycling skills. Look a little deeper however and being able to consistently hoist the front wheel is one of the most useful MTB tricks in the book.

No matter how much I try I fail at wheelies. Badly.
I started never using the back brake just land on my feet, what helped me was to pull the handle bars upward to the sky curving to wards me and throwing my head back abit looking slightly up imagine throwing your back behind the back wheel. Also a a heavy back pack help me w/ it. Start peddling strong for a sec before you pull up so your arms already have and advantage 1/4 starting with your regular leg so your dominar has max push
If you have a light bike it’s easy mate if you can get a bike with a bit of carbon fibre on it your wheelies will be easy I couldn’t do wheelies until I got a new bike my was old and heavy
If your are doing what I think you are doing, you should start by going slow, i mean really slow like 5 km/h, Then use one of the lightest gears of your bike, the secret is to pull back as you pedal. The bike should lift itself, just like motorbikes lift when you accelerate to much. Furthermore, If you fall backwards, just put your feet down and hold the bike while walking
v1d300 like he said at the beginning, it’s pretty hard. I started when I was like 8. I bet you are worried about falling backwards right? Sometimes you have to tip back on purpose to see where the balance points are. You can’t be scared to get that front end up in the air while keep peddling.
Try to shift your body back

That was cool , can you make a video on how to bunny hop please
Mighty Droid I find a bunny hop easier than a wheelie. Not sure if that’s normal
On the way! Stay tuned, we’ll let you know. ✌
Im the only one who can wheelie but keep watching wheelie vidios?
First
The best way to learn is with a layed back seat post. Seat moved further rearward. Therefore the front end is much lower and less effort getting front end up. And not as intimidating to learn.
Don’t get me wrong, wheelie is cool but learn how to skid is much more useful on a mountain bike ?
