your rotation seems perfect, just spread your legs and youll get it.
close your eyes and picture yourself landing it over and over again, i wasnt even gettin close and i just rode with my eyes closed and just relaxed for alittle bit. and cut out and landed it, and 3 days latter im gettin them first try now  |

Man you are way close. Try moving your front foot back, and get lower before you pop it. Try this. _________________ dbanana wrote:

Those are really sick and really close. I've got the cure. Move your front foot back a good 5-6 inches. It's way too far up front and it's making you bring your foot back to kick the board. This will automatically correct your feet on the landing too, since the momentum will be towards normal riding position. Other than that, you should be good to go.

| daaaamn. u seriously haven't landed any? those look so good and clean until the landing. im sure if u just keep trying them with out changing anything u'll land it pretty soon but scooting ur front foot back a little seems like it'd help the most. |

kink your front knee so your front foot turns sideways and flicks the board upward, that will bring the tail up, that way you can catch it with both feet and put it down with more control. and suck your feet up more, land with your weight even. _________________
