ABOUT LINNEA ROOKE
Linnea has been racing locally in the pro category, but until this year she had almost no formal training and was held back by major gaps in her technique. While she was able to carry speed well on straight downhills and high-bermed turns, she lacked foundational cornering skills and was timid in the air. In Feb 2020, she met up with Fluidride to help with a filming trip in Baja, and was fascinated by Simon's teaching methods. Wanting to be part of this mission, she left her career in healthcare in July 2020 to officially join the Fluidride team as COO. We started filming this series to document her journey of cleaning up bad habits, adding new skills to her toolkit, and chasing her dream of riding with style.

Think I've seen every wheelie video on TH-cam ... I declare this the best!
Thanks for watching- I’m pumped this video is helpful! -Linnea
Yes I agree totally.
So simple.
When I was a kid I learned to wheelie on an old Schwinn ( however tf you spell ) that only had a coaster brake. My buddies and I could ride a wheelie literally for miles. Years later the same bunch of us wheelied all the way over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge on the way to Ocean City, on our motorcycles. That bridge is 4 miles long and in the middle it has like a grate that you can see down to the water waaaaay down to the water. Sketchy for sure.
This is one of the top wheelie tutorials on TH-cam and, as an extremely poor wheelie student, I'm painfully familiar with all the other videos out there. I've got a couple of extra suggestions which you might want to consider if you do any updated versions in future:
1. Steering the wheelie. Most of the other TH-cam tutorials will say things like 'steer with your knees' or 'turn the bars.' This probably makes sense to someone who's already learned how to do it, but it doesn't actually work for anyone else. There's a lot of nuance to how steering works but the fundamental movement (from a straight armed, upright wheelie position) is pushing one bar grip away from you and pulling the other towards you. However, to do this, your hips/butt and your knees must also allow the bike to move and you may need to use force through either foot on the pedal to help swivel the whole bike around. Once you've 'internalised' this movement so it's automatic, you probably won't realise that you're doing it, hence the poor description you get on most TH-cam tutorials.
2. Popping the wheelie up straight. The guidance in this video is about as good as it gets, however there is one other way of doing it which I find much easier: simply don't bother with the chest compression and pushing back. Instead, start already leaning back with your arms straight, back arched and chin up, and drive strongly/smoothly with your leg. This should easily be enough to get you up to the balance point, and by starting with your upper body in a solid, balanced, upright position, it's much less likely to result in you immediately veering off left or right.
I really love the idea of trying to fit in as many brake taps as you can on each attempt - I'll definitely be practicing that later to try and improve my feathering.
And thanks to the last 'cracking' the code' video on manuals, I've been able to consistently get my front wheel right up no problem, even though I've only just started learning. So thanks for these tutorials - they're brilliant.
Hi there - thank you SO MUCH for this thoughtful and detailed comment! All of these are great ideas and I hope other viewers read this and I agree with all the things you're saying. I hope to make a more advanced wheelie video one day and talk about steering and some more fun things! Hah but I guess I gotta learn how to do that first 🤣. I appreciate all your thoughts here! -Linnea
Yes thank you - more info on steering / fall prevention! That seems to be the biggest problem.
This is still the best wheelie video on YT.
Your two points are key. I’m learning wheelie right now and I had exactly the same conclusion!
So you're getting it up but you can't keep it up? 😂
This was so awesome Linnea! Keep up all of the great work. Hopefully we can all ride together this year!
Awww thanks so much you two! This means a lot, especially coming from you. I'm honored! And we're not too far from you; would love to get out for a rip 🥳 -Linnea
@@Fluidride & @Kyle & April 2 of the best TH-cam content on MTB
Oh. Thanks for the invite. Just let me know when and where 😜
You guys!! So supportive of each other and also of what might be called your competition...genuinely great people. BTW this is a really great video and I'm going for a spin to hang off my bars!!
@@bryanm9880 yes, I agree.
been practicing my wheelies non stop for the last year or so and this is by far the best tutorial! I can get decent wheelies for a good length and find the balance point but always fall to the left or right and thats what keeps me from doing wheelies as long as I want. I really like the tip about not pulling with your arms to one side or another and hanging off your bars! hopefully I can master that and figure out how to ride the wheelie as long as I want! thanks so much!
took me years to get good at wheelies (realistically 300 hours of just wheelie practice)...but you will be a beginner at wheelies for a long time, definitely a few weeks, probably a few months...this is where you can pop up a lot and get a few pedals in, probably not using your brake, and not really controlling your speed within your wheelie, every 1 out of 30 or 50 times...you get almost 100 ft or a little more, but you might be stuck at this stage for a while...I was stuck at this stage for a very long time, because I would be very inconsistent with practice, and I would get away from the bike for years at a time...a couple years ago I got a modern MTB full sus, and was dedicated to progressing all my mtb skills, including wheelies and manuals, I was very consistent for about a full year, and then I finally broke through from a beginner to intermediate wheelie skill...that happened last spring, about 9 months ago, i went from beginner (as described earlier) to intermediate in what seemed like over night, but ....where all of a sudden I could get a 100ft wheelie 7 out of 10 times, every session using my brake and keeping the wheel up, not just falling momentum wheelies, but finally controlling the speed within my wheelie.... from there my progression sky rocketed quickly, and within another few months i was wheeling super long, at will, going super fast, downhill, uphill, coaster wheelies, and going slow...recently within the past couple months, I got really good at wheelies on narrow sidewalks, longer single track wheelies, and now Im working on swerves and sharper turns in my wheelies...being able to wheelie effortlessly is like floating on magic carpet...do whatever you can to get nice at wheelies yall, its more than worth it...i recently turned 38, and I say that i learned how to wheelie at 37,.... i didnt consider being able to wheelie as a beginner because, if you cant control your speed within a wheelie slow down and speed up, and get about 100 ft almost every time, then you aint really doing wheelies...not hating if this is where you at, just trying to motivate to get past that point, because I know its possible...never give up, never too late
this tutorial and the one from Kyle&April are hands down the best for wheelies . Thank you !
I like the video. I already knew how to wheelie but it was interesting to watch, but i like it more to start in a middle to high gear. I have to get of the seat to get to the balance point but its way easier to hold the wheelie. So for the ones learning how to wheelie, try al gears and see what you like. If you struggle to hold the wheelie go up a gear or 2. I found out it doesnt bother to get of the seat. as long as you sit back down after reaching the balance point.
This is the best wheelie tutorial video that I have seen!
Very nice comprehensive explanation of the "wheelie". Good job, thank you.
Of the 20ish TH-cam tutorials I’ve watched, this one is my favorite. It is very detail oriented, and has a small trick or tip to help you bring your wheelies to the next level, no matter where you’re at in the progression. I’ve been at it for a few months, and am very inconsistent with my ability to wheelie, but now I have some clear things to practice to get past my plateau. Thanks!
How did you get on, I've been trying for a few months with varied success
@@davidmt23 I finally learned it after I decided to have an every day practice. The hardest part for me was pushing through the frustration. I’d say that one of the most important parts of the wheelie is staying as relaxed as you can. When you’re relaxed you’re not over doing any aspects of balancing the wheelie. In addition to that, I’d say keeping a good posture: head up/arms straight is a big one. Also, the correct saddle height and gear makes a noticeable difference.
@MTBishop
Cheers, time on the bike is definitely the key I think, I'm managing 15 or so pedals at the mo before it turns into a speed wheelie! Quite pleased with my progress, but I must admit, I thought it would ve been easier. Bloody TH-cam making everything look easy!!. I basically want to be able to wheelie as far as I want by my 50th (next month😏). Good fun trying
@MTBishop I had an epiphany today... keeping my back straight really helps too! Been practicing for about 1.5 months and I can feel it coming!😎
Another great tutorial from one the absolute best mtb channels! ( Your series about jumping is pure gold ).
The one tip you give here that really helped me is about hand grip. Very light, only the fingers in contact with the grips. As if hanging loosely off the handlebar. This communicates to my brain to shift input away from my upper body and towards my hips.
But what none of the tutorials on wheelies I've seen mention, including this one, is not to coast into a wheelie. ( Maybe it seemed too obvious to mention ). Instead, pedal into it with constant, light pressure on the chain. This prevents the randomness of rear hub engagement. When coasting into a wheelie, the point at which the hub bites when you crank down will vary, making you loop out or not get enough front lift in a quite unpredictable way. You mention scrubbing speed with the front brake, which eventually led me to this idea. This simple change has given me the biggest progression in learning wheelies. Of course all the other stuff, like: extended loose arms, looking ahead, sitting heavy on the saddle, are essential too. It's just the loaded chain approach was the missing bit and got rid of the infuriating randomness during the lift.
I love the way you break it down. Now to practice!
Very nice breakdown of the wheelie. This help me a lot in my own progression. Hope to be able to sustain like you do. Thanks for this and keep up the good work!
The best wheelies instruction video!
Stellar tutorial, off to practice asap!
One of the best videos on the topic out there!
This is one of the most detailed and comprehensive wheelie tutorials I have seen. Thank you so much!
Nice Linnea. Very comprehensive and well structured tutorial. That structure of, the technique itself / the common issues / how to maintain the wheelie was awesome. Pretty much the best breakdown I've seen on TH-cam over the years 👍👍
Best tutorial I’ve seen, tell you the truth when it began I was like, I’m pretty sure this girl won’t teach me how to wheelie, this has to be the best wheelie tutorial video on TH-cam , trust me I’ve watched about 10 before this one, I guess TH-cam was saving the best for last! 😂, thank you! Very helpful, you just got one more subscriber👍🏼💪🏼
Wow this comment put the biggest smile on my face. Thanks for watching, and for taking the time to write this. I struggled a loooong time with wheelies 🤣and was eager to share the things that actually worked. Good luck in all your practicing too! -Linnea
Very thorough tutorial Linnea! Thanks.
Way to inspire my face off! Thanks Linnea! I'm so close to cracking mine and I think with this info I'll have it.
Amazing video! The best one so far out of the many how to wheelie videos I have seen! Thank you Linnea :)
This is probably the best wheelie video out there. Thanks!
Best wheelie technique breakdown vid out there. Thanks!
Most comprehensive video on wheelies yet...picked up a lot of points the others missed! Really well done and enjoyed the view in a time many of us can’t get out...thanks Linnea!
Great instruction!!
Attempted my first wheelie today! This video rocks! Thanks so much for the perfect tips!!
Awesome pointers...... I able to understand what I should be looking out when I'm trying to master my wheelie. Thanks
Wow, you are a really good teacher, Linnea. That was really thorough and sooo well explained. Awesome job!!
Amazing video! I've been practicing for a couple months now and this is one of the best videos hands down.
Wow! I was not expecting that! Very inspirational. Makes me want to practice my wheelies now. I’ve been practicing on and off for a couple of years, so need more practice time. It’s the side balancing that is my issue at the moment. Keep up the great work! 🤘👍
The common problems section super helpful! Thanks for the video!
Glad it was helpful! - Coach Kagen
Nice job Linnea. I feel that even though I’ve watched a hundred wheelie videos, this definitely gave me some good pointers others have missed.
Thank you a million times for such a detailed explanations. Saved for future references as # 1 rules!
Definitely best wheelie school in TH-cam!
The most comprehensive and understandable wheelie video on the line ;-) Nice work! It's taken me 30 years but I will be wheelie-ing before I'm 60.
Excellent tutorial and the best one I have watched! My problem is I am very inconsistent with practicing. This vid is getting me motivated again to go try and finally focus on getting this down once and for all.
Great tute team! Kyle, I’m a big admirer of your video and editing 👌🏿. Linnea, you killed it going solo on this lesson. Very clear and concise. I go try wheelies now 🚴🏿 💨💨💨!
Really great tutorial and a nice location too!
Thank you!! My mountain bike and transformer forward the skills to my dirt bike.👍
Thanks for saying this took 5 months that helped me to keep practicing and have seen good improvement. Excellent video.
Awesome 👍👍 Can't wait to practice wheelies!!!
You and me both Tony!! - Coach Kagen
Top class tutorial right here… covers almost everything you’ll need to do long, sustainable and safe wheelies in a great way. Great job.
Best instructional video yet ! Appreciate
Thanks for watching, Dana! We're happy it's helping!
Wow 👍 15 Minutes for a Wheelie-Tutorial. I guess this is ohne of the best Tutorial. Thx for it.
She's a little wheelie monster! Definitely got the wheelie gene
Again, a great detailed explanation about the technique of a particular MTB skill. As mentioned by other, pedal stroke placement and timing are explained very good. Very good job for --I think it is -- your first own movie. Stefan
Thank you very much. Great content.
Thanks for watching, John! -Linnea
Again an amazing video!
Thanks so much for watching!
Your tip on hand pressure at front side is very helpful, so was the last time on bunny hopping/jumping, underside was noted. Your series are the most clear and comprehensive tutorial, not only funny pink pedals with black/chrome cranks.
Been wheelie-ing for a while now what u said about ‘anchoring’ ur weight once balance point is reached is something i never thought of before, and it’s true !
So stoked this resonated! Thank you so much for watching :) -Linnea
Best wheelie tutorial I've seen! Thanks!!
Thanks so much for watching, Jason! And stoked that you liked it -Linnea

Thanks so much Niklas! We're glad you liked it! :) - Coach Kagen
Thank you you nice Person. This is maybe the most complete and helpfull Guide on YT. After watching so many Tutorials im Happy to watch this while breakfast. Now i will start my Second day of practice with finding my Pedalposition and then watching this Video again👍😂
some interesting tips in this i haven't heard yet. thank you
thank you for watching!
As a long time biker getting back into MTB, this info is fantastic to assist me. All you videos are full of great tips, thankyou.
Thank you Mark, we're glad you like them! Welcome back to mountain biking!
-Kagen, Fluidride Coach
Great video. Lots of good tips that I haven't heard before. The only one I would add for sustaining a wheelie is keep your eyes up. Your body and your bike will follow your eyes. Keep up the great work!
Best wheelie video, and i have watched many! Great focus on important details and tips. Thanks
Thanks so much for this kind note! And stoked that it was helpful for you too. -Linnea
great done. i think thats the most complete wheelie tut. Thanks a lot
Thanks for this note - and so happy you enjoyed it! -Linnea
Best wheelie video I’ve seen. Thanks for breaking it down!
Thanks for this kind message- we appreciate it and so happy to hear the video is helpful! -Linnea
I'm just going to repeat what's already written down here but I have seen my share of online tutorials and this is one of the best wheelies ones I've seen out there! So well explained and just like with your manuals one, you helped me identify a big common problem which I wasn't aware of and that is nb 5: I really hadn't realized you shouldn't compress the fork into the ground and I have been doing exactly that (thinking it was helping)... Thanks, I will go and practice again with that in mind :)
It is also sooo refreshing to hear it took you 5 months, all videos make you feel you're the slowest learner ;)
Best Wheelie tutorial I've seen!! Keep up the good work, love your channel.
JP
Thanks so much for this, Jean-Pierre!
thanks very helpful..learning a lot from your videos
We're stoked to hear that Calbert! Thanks for watching! - Coach Kagen
I really enjoy your videos. You go into a level of detail and nuance that others don't. The foot position for starting the rotation and how the hands feel hanging are small things with big impact. In your manual video the part about the upper body bending forward working against you was a light bulb for me. I'd love to see your crack the code if the bunny hop Simon and you worked on few months ago.
Thank you for this video Linnea! Feels like I have watched every wheelie video on yt but this one has helped me progress the most. I really enjoyed the time spent talking about common mistakes and fixes. This addressed my issue and now my wheelies are more consistent. Keep up the great content!
Thanks for watching, Mike, and for this thoughtful comment! So happy to hear that this helped. I struggled so much with wheelies (and for so long) that I am very well acquainted with what not to do 🤣 Best of luck with your practicing! It will pay off! -Linnea
This is a perfect and best tutorial I've ever seen before about wheelie . Thank you ,Linnea!!
I've watched this clip about 30times.^^
I'm so stoked this is helpful for you!! And thanks for watching! -Linnea
Best video I have seen great 👍👌👏job
Great work with this one Linnea as it covers both the basics, details and "trouble shooting"
thanks for this! so pumped it was helpful for you!
Best wheelie tutorial I’ve seen yet!
Wow, thanks, MJP! Have you given wheelies a go since watching? - Coach Kagen
@@Fluidride Unfortunately I have not been riding recently, but I can't wait to try this out whenever I get back into biking
@@mjp8415 I hope you can get back out there soon! -Simon
This is by far the simplest and best video I've seen to date. The slow mo helps see everything happening as well
Wow such kind words - thank you for the feedback! -Linnea
via Alex Bogusky's Joy of Bike , i first practice looping out on purpose to bail out properly , that helped me with confidence and feel, i can manage one full rotation of the crank for wheelies, onwards from here! wish me luck!
Best training video on wheelies I have seen yet!!
Same..best of YT!
Wow, thanks, Gene! We're glad you liked it, have you had a chance to give wheelies a go after watching? - Coach Kagen
Thank you so much Romeo! - Coach Kagen
Great tutorial number 3 is always my problem. I always veer off to one side. Occasionally ill pull off a real good one but never knew what i was doing differently. Will def try putting more peddle power to lift the front end next time im practicing thanks from nz.
I love the way you talk. Sounds so sweet. Great video! I’m a newbie biker and this video is really interesting and useful for me. Thanks and more power!
Welcome to the world of mountain biking Bossing King TV! We're glad you're watching and learning from us! - Coach Kagen
"Commitment", id forgotten that word existed! I was really awful until decided to commit to the wheelie, now im not as quite as awful!, it takes time........
good vid cheers for the tips
Thank you Linnea, I have been trying to learn hot to wheelie for years and even though I was able to find The balance point and do some wheelies, I never felt like I was able to sustain them for any distance until a recent breakthrough which I credit to you.
It was the tip of having a loose grip and sort of hanging off the bars / technique you showed on how to hold the grips. I was finally able to relax and have my arms stretched instead of pulling on the handlebar to balance. Thanks again for the detailed explanation and tips. You made my day!
Hi Manuel - wow thank you so much for taking the time to write this! Your thoughtful message means so much to me, and I'm thrilled the tips are resonating with you too 🥳 Thanks for your support! -Linnea
Currently re-learning the wheelie. Gone e-MTB and it’s very different! Glad I’m going into it with a good “acoustic” wheelie. Brilliant coaching, excellent analysis of technique & troubleshooting tips.
ahaha the acoustic wheelie, that's awesome 🤣. Thanks for watching and for all the kind feedback! -Linnea
Wow! Thanks to this 1 video I am doing wheelies for the first time ever. Before I was trying to yank the handlebars up and just getting neck ache. The tips about pedal position and hanging onto the handles like a pullup bar were a game changer. Thanks!
Linnea is the Wheelie Queen for sure! So glad to hear this is helping you Alex! - Coach Simon
Excellent video! I’m still learning to wheelie getting better everyday after 1 month. All time record about 5 secs. I’m working on feathering and not chasing below the balance point. Brilliant detailed tips!
Wow this is so great! You are already making big progress. I'm happy the video helped, and thanks for watching! -Linnea
Wow, is that really Linnea doing wheelies? Damn your good. Can’t wait till the weekend to go try the techniques.
15:22 is an amazing clip - the kid and his sister/mom look so stoked
awesome tips!
Thanks for watching! -Linnea
looks cool !
Now I need to go out and do some practice. Thanks. What a lovely voice you have🥰🥰
Very nice tutorial video
And Viva Todos Santos! 🥳
that was so awesomely comprehensive... I'm totally gonna crack this code now
Thanks so much for watching! And YES I know you can do it - just takes patience!!
great tips, I needed couple of them. thanks!
Thanks Moises - happy to hear it's helping!!

@@Fluidride awesome! Thanks so much
That was WHEELIE good. Thanks
🤣 we always love a good wheelie pun 😆
I feel that this is the best wheelie tutorial I watched on TH-cam!
Thanks so much for watching!!
Great video 😊
Thanks for watching, James!
I saw all of the wheelie tutorials on TH-cam. This one covers almost all problems when learning how to wheelie.
After a while of practicing I noticed one major thing: try to really sit down and focus on 'sitting' and not on holding the front with your arms. It helped to do so when I thought: "A wheelie is doable with only one arm or even without arms - so the arms aren't doing anything, they are not that important after the front is in the air"
this is awesome! And great point with the arms
Nice work on this video! Need to put in the time to get results I suppose. But these tips really help!!
What a amazing explaining. Thanks from Sri Lanka
Wow so cool you're from Sri Lanka! Thank you for watching! - Linnea
Common problem #2, 3, 4, 5, 6 right here! I just realised my mistakes two days ago after I filmed myself for the first time. Filming yourself is a great way for you to see your own form, and make corrections from there. I've only given wheelies about 2 hours of dedicated time so far and tips like these help greatly! Excellent video. Cheers mates 🎉
Ahh yes we love this!! Videos help so much - especially for wheelies. You start to see where energy is being lost and where your body is quietly sabotaging your efforts 🤣 Great work getting out there and practicing!
@@Fluidride haha that's ever so true. It makes the learning curve easier once you can see yourself what you're doing wrong!
Well done video😁👍
What a cool location. Great video.
Thanks Sean! This was filmed in Todos Santos, Baja, Mexico and we actually have a few winter tours scheduled here for this year. Come join us! Check them out at fluidride.com/baja-mexico and maybe I'll see you down there? - Coach Kagen
The most important thing to note in this video is her crank arms- polished!! Which means she rides ALL THE TIME
It doesn’t matter how many tutorials you watch if your just not practicing, but if you are gonna watch tutorials why not one with a smokin hot instructor 😍
2:21 i think you may have just inspired that girl in the background to start shredding!
We hope that she's not the only one! - Coach Kagen
Started trying to wheelie my Specialized Stumpjumper 29er just yesterday, already getting 3 second wheelies on first day. It’s all about the back brake and keeping power at the feet.
wow that's fast progress - great work!!
great video
