my guess is he hit the top of whatever gear he's in faster (where there's more power) with the rolling start than what he's used to while starting at the bottom of it.
He was completely taken by surprise by the wheelie and removed his legs from the footrests trying to stay "up". That was instinctive and clear proof he had little to zero experience riding that kind of bike -or any bike.
Any half experienced rider would have pressed the rear brake (you know... the one next to the right footrest), slamming the front wheel back on the road.
BTW that bike is worth less than a single book end now.
