Another tip for control in climbing is light hands.  Keep your hands and arms relaxed and use a very light touch on the bars.  This lets the front wheel absorb the rough terrain and not throw you off balance and the wheel out of control.  It also forces you to keep your body balanced on the bike, and consequently you are less likely to flip over backwards.  Try it, and let me know how it works....
