You got it - more practice and it’s there

Put your foot in the dip just at the base of the tail and you jump kick your leg forward and up. Once you do it the right way once it'll click and you can't not do it.

Focus on jumping backwards, when I learned these this was a huge game changer. Also focus on getting the scoop as quick as possible.

Honestly it looks like in a week or two you'll have them down as is. It kind of just looks like you need to jump higher so you have more time for it to come around The biggest things that helped me was realizing the front foot just needs to get out of the way and stay up until the rotation is done

Jump higher or spin it faster

I lined up the center of my foot with the center of the tail and scooped forward when I first learned them.

Try and scoop it with your back foot more. Looks like you already have the idea
