my advice .. boots/gloves
they will feel different when you try them standing also .. harder at first but easier later and you havea much better view... always keep the right foot on the brake also so you dont 12 your bike

i think hes going slow enough so that when he touches down the front wheel is gonna straighten itself out with very minimal wobble.
i think the rule of thumb was
power first
clutch second

Boots, gloves, coat....then cover brake, lean back...your arms should be almost straight if not straight where you are. Oh and do it in 2nd.

i would recommend wearing some gear and get some type of protection for the bike. maybe a cage or race rails or some sliders. always cover the rear brake and get into the habbit of using it so you will know that its always there. i would also recommend clutching it up instead of powering but other recommends the other way. me personally i clutch my bike and take your time.

Lean back. Looks like you have a death grip on that thing too.
Clutch em!
