Nice rad, I think from watching you I have a better idea how to do that.

Jm you're looking really smooth with that.  Its funny, when I dream about riding I only deam about doing time machines and that variation you're working on (brain farting on what it's called).  And I seriously haven't touched the back wheel in 6 months.

Nice mace keep it up, it gets easier over time.  Really hard trick because the balance point feels so wacky at first.

Nice riding!
Maybe it is easyer if you get the bike towards your hips faster. and pushing your handlebars forward when your frame is on 50% from BW steamroller to bw halfhiker.
Ride for fun!

@ Dutchflatlander.     Well i fanyone wants to know, i have the BEST tip. Drop your tire pressure. If you are rolling front wheel tricks, drop your frpnt wheel pressure to where you can barley smush it with your hand at full strength.(keep the rear at full pressure so you will still roll ....  This will allow your bike to have a larger "footprint" .. This will aid you with stability, you can learn quicker like this and then when you have the trick figured out, you can slowly add pressure so you can carve/ transition out or into another trick....Also, when you are practicing, you may "feel"  some of the trick or "feel" comfy at one small spot on your practice track.....stay there. practice in that ONE  spot....it may have a slight incline or decline that is aiding you to nail that trick, practice it again and again in that same spot where you feeel comfy with it, then as you "feel " it, move to a random spot and try what you "felt" there.
Well those are my 2 beginner tips for today, im going to palm beach to get some footage and somepractice today.......
practice hard!!!!

spent a week sh*tting blood and throwing up, after spending two weeks nursing a thrown back and dislocated elbow. This was my first day back after the 4 or so weeks from hell.
