I've never hit a kicker before but I would say just do it the same way you would off the wake. You have to initiate the spin with the handle. Pull the handle to the small of your back and pass to the other hand, etc.....

I dunno, that isn't me or anything. I just went to Google Images and typed in "wakeboard kicker" and just selected one of the first few kicker images that popped up.
