It is also the gear with the most amount of initial power. A flick of the wrist in 1st gear as apposed to 2nd will have far quicker response. I've seen your videos you have progressed in a way which I would have said was the best way to learn wheelies. Clutch/throttle combination.
There are some out there that do not seem to be able to master the clutch/throttle method and do it off the power alone. Now doing a 'power wheelie' in 1st is going to have a much faster response than any other gear for obvious reasons. They could very easily find themselves in a whole heap of bother before they even realised they were at that stage.
