You might be kicking your back foot towards the boat instead of just kicking it off to the side. That would shoot the board in front of you and make you land towards the back.

If its a bs shuvit, then get your back foot closer to the toeside edge and your front foot closer to the heel side and kinda pointing towards your nose.

This will really help spin the board around flat and under you. Your problem seems to be landing with the board too much forward, so as freerider4 said spread out your legs on the board before the trick, and also when you land try to spread em out again quickly.

I do what nekkie said with the foot positioning as soon as you get your feet good its easy to land them

I also would recommend what nekkie said. Start with your feet in that position, and jump a little forward so you keep momentum. Really think about landing with your feet wide.
