I can never find the handle when i reach for it, and even if i did find it, the spin still feels kinda awkward... any one have any advice i would greatly appreciate it!

thanks!

Practice them doing surface 1's
then do ollie 1's
then do an inside-out (jumping from inside the wake -> out) 1's
then you should be fairly comfortable for the w2w

Good luck, PM me with any questions and I'll be happy to help with anything

(Those are all baby steps to the w2w.
