What I do is add extra heat on the opposite side
using an extra pencil
tip solder iron , hold the board vertically[or use a vise], it helps
control the action this way, and preheat the other side with the
desolder iron [with the bulb squeezed tightly] for several seconds and
then release. This also helps with the stubborn power pins on any DIP
package.
You can give the process an Oriental flavor by heating the board over
a charcoal brazier...
