Who said they can down shift on a wheelie?

Ok, I have never tried this but I probably will now that ive seen this. The only way that I think it will be possible is is you ride a nice wheelie and get it into that "no gravity feeling" The feeling where your quad kinda teeters either way. You know what i mean? Anyway, once it gets up there, try to keep your balance without using throttle to let then engine settle down a little bit (maybe 1 second, hopefully it will be enought time) then jam it down again and hammer it. That is the method that I will be trying if I ever get mine working right.

derekhonda's right,
you have to be in "that spot" where you can let off everything, and just by body motion, you lean forward or backwards.
I can't do it on my shee (hardly pull a wheely), but on my mountainbike, I can ride a wheelie, and almost get to a a stop without getting the front wheel down (I stay in that balance point, then play with the rear brake and lean back in the same time). I think it's pretty easy...you have to be confortable riding "the spot" before attempting this. I'll try to do this as soon as I can ride.
So my .02, find the balance point(where even if you let off the gas, it will stay up), get used to it, and THEN you'll be able to even brake during wheelies (and it's a real blast!)
