HS FrontFLip Problems- Wierd Spin/Flip

[Lantzvillian]

Hey there,
I went out yesterday feeling quite gutsy and I was like I can do slims on a tramp why not a hs front on the water. I took an easy cut - mid sized actually. A progressive hard edge in and poped and threw it down. I tried it for about an hour. Today my bum feels like its been beaten with a stick. I get to the three quarter point and see the water, but it doesn't fee right so I chuck the handle and land on the board. At the mid point of the flip you'll see in the pic it looks like an ugly off axis three or front to fakie.. and its suckin bad.. Suggestions please.

Hey, this is how i do my fronts.
Take a hard progressive cut in. You can also load your back foot to bring your front up on the pop. Anyways, in the trough, get ready to stand tall but at the same time, flatten out your board. KEEP THE HANDLE IN LIKE A TRIANGLE. Like keep your elbows on your side THROUGHOUT THE TRICK. Then make sure u lift your front leg, through your ear on your shoulder and hold on. Also, sometimes i feel like when i turn the handle it spins me faster, but its probably in my mind.

So my tips for your pics are dont do a front flip, it looks more like a cart wheel without hands. It looks like ur trying to do an actual front flip. Definitely keep the handle in too. Your first pic shows that u dont start with it in. Keep the handle in the middle of your body.

to do fronts you have to cut in hard on your edge like for a raley then drop your front shoulder and when your 1/4 the way around pull the handle to your knees and your body should follow
