Key tips
1Back foot on the toe side of the tail so you can snap it hard

3Snap the tail and jump together; both feet leave the board
4Aggressively slide your front foot up the grip to level the board
5Pop harder if the board flips sideways

7Hold a couch or rail to go weightless and isolate the foot mechanics
