so im going for a pop back 3 shuv. i can usually nail the 180shuv w/ nice pop, but when i go for the 3 (in the flats) i usually just barely under rotate it or the board is closer to the wake than i am when i go to land. any pointers?

before you throw it flatten off your edge

move both your front and back foot.

hey man, try moving your back foot more with your toes hanging over your toeside edge, this will give you some leverage to really throw that momma from the train. Shocked

put your back foot all the way back and your front right above the middle of the board. Also your front foot should be on your toes and just kick out your back foot and you get em
that's how I got mine consistent

i think raven gave the best advice, its very important to have have your toes over the side for leverage..just like a skateboard
