You gotta lean forward and get your back tire off the ground when you hit the wall so you get backwards momentum when you come off it

Throw your weight back a little bit more and pull a bit more with your arms. You’re almost there

Move your weight a tad to back to maintain your fakies, also you can try on a small slope to help with momentum, if you are starting out try to just look at your stem to keep it straight.

Keep trying

Hop, the change in momentum screws with your balance, find a bank and do a hop when you come to a stop.

Best advice I ever got was to look at the front wheel when you’re going in fakie. It helps to keep your balance

You need to lean against the stand over the wheel, and then push off with your arms and legs so that your butt rolls backwards along with the bike.
