Wheelie

A Wheelie is a technique that can be done on a bike in Mario Kart Wii. Players flick the Wiimote upward or press up on the D-pad on GCN/classic controllers and the biker gets up on one wheel, increasing their speed but decreasing their control. While doing a wheelie, players are more affected by contact with other vehicles. Braking or a down-flick of the Wiimote/pressing down on the D-pad will stop the wheelie.
