What are these stunt schools you talk about?
I've never done a wheelie on purpose and I've only done a stoppie on a bicycle LOL. Those two alone would be great to learn, but if I could I'd really love to do one of those slow moving burnouts where the bike is turning one way or the other.
There is no planet B.

Yup, and there's an English data in Julliet.
Keith Code had his On One Wheel school in NJ a couple of years ago, but a woman died at one of the classes last year so I don't know if they're going to continue or not. This used to be the link, it doesn't work for me here at work, but I'm at a stupid bank where they block a LOT of stuff: http://ononewheel.com/

I was wrong about the fatality being last year, FYI. Sorry to spread misinformation.

If you are considering the montreal school, its run by Felix from stunt.ca and is a very good course. Felix is bilingual and will teach you in english whatever day you go. Ive seen some progress vids of people who had never wheelied at all before the course, and were doing pretty high sit downs for the full lenth of the track by the end.
Ride fully setup bikes, full insured, legit racetrack sectioned off for just the school, and taught by one of Canadas OG stunters. Wheelie school FTW!
Felix was even teaching some more advanced riders and to get them used to balance point he did seat stander wheelies using his handbrake with the stundent sitting on the bike just holding on to the cage so they could feel the balance point.
the advice youre going to get at a wheelie schools could be easily found online, its still up to you to learn the brake control and that takes time and a lot of broken parts on your bike

Fair enough, but I've been reading how-to articles and looking at vids for 10 years now and I still suck at wheelies. The chance to practice in a controlled environment on someone else's bike, with some safety features thrown in is very appealing.
