It's easy to do Manual on BMX, but it's hard to explain.

A manual is when you're riding on the rear wheel and not turning your pedals. You simply lift the front wheel off the ground, shift your body weight backwards and balance with your legs. This is a basic trick on BMX you can tackle on any level surface. The moment you feel you're loosing control of the bike, just neatly jump backwards. And if you're going at a hight speed, let go of the bike completely — safety first.

Ride at medium speed and lift your front wheel, not too high and not too low. Your entire weight should be shifted back and located over the rear wheel. Arms are tense and practically straight. Your back and abdomen should also be tense. This is very important.
Hold your balance on the rear wheel by bending and straightening your knees. Try it out first by lifting the front wheel while standing. Mark how long you've managed to ride in manual, it will help your progress. Soon the movements will become automatic and you'll have mastered the manual!

You can practise the manual whilst you’re riding anywhere. It’s all about finding your balance point on your back wheel.
