backbigs

when i try my backbigs i can land on the board and get the handle, but i usually land on the heelside edge of the board and slip out.

it really sucks ive come so close to landing them but my season is ending so i dont know if i'll get another chance to try them. nothless, any advice?

just focus on landing over your toes, it helps me if right when i land i look up at the shore and it gets me on my toeside edge.

remember to stay under control. i used to slip out on those all the time before i started landing them, and it was because my body varial was too fast and out of control. try and start your BV when you throw the shuv, this way its all one motion and you can spin w/ the board and catch it at the right time.

i found the thing that helped me the most with this was to catch it at 270 and land right over my toes with the handle in the small of my back

you dont always have to pass the handle in the middle of the trick that just makes it more stylish you can land rapped in this trick no problem... when you do just keep your shoulders over your feet cause this trick people tend to slip out alot on

also, keep the rope in close...you get pulled over your heels cuz the rope is too far out
