r-dub, i can't tell you how much this helped me. along with some ideas i got from watching a messenger championship trackstand video, i am now up to about 3 minutes...on the carpet in my room. a small victory, but i'm happy.
edit: exponential learning - i can trackstand one handed just as easily. this is creeping me out.
