ok so im -ettin- back into trials after a little freeride break, and am pretty much back at the be-inin- so my problem this time is that i balance with my left foot fowards and the front wheel to the ri-ht, so i cant seem to mana-e to -et front wheel pivots to the left and rear wheel pivots to the ri-ht, because my wheels are set in the wron- direction for it. any advice or is it just a matter of learnin- to balance with the front wheel to the left? thanks, and sorry about the dashes, my jee key is messed up

When you want to pivot, straighten the wheel out just before you do it. Problem solved.

Yes it is much easier to pivot when you turn your front wheel "into it" - meaning for instance, if you want to pivot to the left turn your front wheel to the right and the bike naturally wants to help you straighten out when you're on the front wheel. So your initial stance is working against you.
Also, for a trully tedious typing experience, if you make sure Num Lock is on, hold down ALT while typing 103 with the number pad, when you release ALT it will type a "g". To get "G" you'd need to repeat the same steps but type 071 with the number pad.
Not suggesting you do that for your posts cause that would suck, but if you really need that "g" or "G".

LOL There is that too.
I think maybe omitting the "G" is an attempt at being really cool... The fact is the "G" is in the subject line. Therefore all coolness is lost.
