well, a 26" tire probably meant to be higher pressure because it’s a skinnier tire, but I would suggest you keep it lower than usual. this gives more surface area (tire squishes more) and makes it easier to balance.
for tips, you can do a search on the forums. there’s tons of information here.
as to what tricks you can learn to do later, check this thread out.
