On a Polaris 250 you will have to use the brake/throttle to perform a wheelie. To be safe put your left foot on the rear grab-bar and right foot on the back brake in-case of emergengy you get the front end up too high just hit the back brake and it will slam it back down. first you will want to come to a complete stop and hold the front brakes and give it a lot of throttle and quickly let off the brake it should come up.
Don't try to ride wheelies just start with small ones. It's a great way to amuse your friends. wear protective gear and be careful.

On my sons Trailboss 250 I put my left foot like Mojave says and hold down the brakes with my right foot. I bring up the rpms then go full throttle and release the brakes. It comes up fairly easy but it goes down hard. Its just way to heavy for wheelies. You TrailBlazer should do fine.

I'll give a second to Rick's post. Do a few mods to the Blazer, and you won't be trying to do wheelies.....just tryin' to keep the wheels down. Then your b/f will just be tryin' to keep up. I've seen too many wheelie/tree encounters. I used to have some buds who always wanted to pop the wheels up on sport bikes too, at over 100 mph+ I prefer to have the controlling wheel doin' the controlling. Hmm, maybe that's why they have scars from roadrash/skin-graphs, and I don't. Sorry for the graphic, hope no one launched their groceries.

I was riding wheelies on my Trail Boss in the grass and it fliped I bailed it went sliding standing straight up for about 100ft and it kept running when it finally came to a stop I just tiped it back on it's wheels, hoped back on and continued. Myn is real fast smokes my 300ex and Mojave.

I had the back grab bar snag a small tree stump, boy that got interesting. If you do a little work to the quad it will be easier to do the wheelies.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
