You just grip the throttle as normal. Putting your forefinger and middle finger on the brake lever, leaves your other two fingers and your thumb wrapped around the throttle so you just give it a blip.

I actually find it's more like using your palm to blip it (no s******ing at the back).

The trick is to keep a constant pressure on the brake lever, when you first try it you'll squeeze the brake harder as you blip. Funnily enough it's easier when you're really hard on the brakes because then any irregular pressure is much less noticable.

Here's the thing though...you don't even need to be moving to practise. Just sit on the bike, put it in neutral, squeeze the brake and see if you can blip the throttle.
