I am only just starting to get decent pop HS W2W jumps. I am still wiping out on a few landings and another problem I was having is rotating off axis once in the air.
I think my problem was that I wasn't keeping the rope in tight once in the air and sometimes I was also letting go with my front hand causing all the rope tension to transfer to my back hand and as a result getting pulled forward off axis and twisting my body.
I started to let go with my back hand once launched to help me focus on my leading hand and this really helped with keeping my balance.

I am only a beginner so thought I would share some info that might help out.
