Default how to wheelie with es shifting

I was woundering how to wheelie my 2004 rancher 4x4 es. i have tried hills but it gets a max of 1 foot offthe ground. I can do it on the roads but i have to go into 1st gear because 2nd doesn't have enough power. and because of that it pops up so fast in first gear it scares the sh** out of me. can anyone tell me how to do one on grass or gravel? thanks in advance

Put your knees on the rear rack, be in 1st, hit the gas and pull back, and once your back over the balance point shift into 2nd

Go on a hill, and put it in first. Stand on the rear rack and let the quad roll down the hill. While rolling backwards put all your weight on you feet, pull up, and gas it. Once you hit the balance point ride it out, if you need to shift, its easy cause you got ES.

yep not what the ute's are made for and i think it would be alot easier if it was a 2x4. I can live without them i already had 2 300ex's got that phase out of me lol.
