The above tips are all heading in the right direction I think but the best way to learn this (in my opinion) is to firstly get the idea of doing it from a rolling start before trying to do it from stationary. By using a rolling start you can then carry your momentum into and though the manoeuvre making it a bit easier and it will help you to learn the kind of shape that you have to make with your body and bike. The key is to keep moving when you do this and not to put your front wheel down, completely come to a halt and then try to do it. If you can do it all in one fluid motion it will be mcuh easier. When you have the hang of that then you will have learnt most of the technique but from stationary the action has to be exagerated!

Hope its of some help to you Alex
