Over exaggerate where you want your handle. Then when you do it the two will even out. (where your trying to put it and where it has been)

i have that problem alot the best advice i've gotten so far is the keep the rope almost touching your hip, that way if it does rise, it won't shoot up above your head, try and and letus know if it helps

Something that helped me get into the habit of keeping the handle near my hip is that every time i pop a trick I actually yank the handle down at my hip when im sucking my knees up. Its actually helped me get more pop cuz when u yank the handle close to your hip when jumping it gives you a lil bit of a pull up in the air, I noticed it most when riding cable just cuz the cable is up in the air its pulling up the whole time anyway. But yeah just try some ollies out in the flats and when you pop yank the handle to ur hip. It helped me a lot, give it a shot, hope it helps.

you just need to edge into the wake faster, it will pop you up higher and you will be able to control that handle
