It's that simple. You can't do it without pushing the handlebars forward.
^Pretty much exactly this^. I learned how when I was 12 (45 years ago). It was 2 solid weeks of trying. There was one kid in our neighborhood that could do it, he just wasn't any good at explaining how. Might be easier to learn by just getting the rear wheel up first?
