Crow mobe help

Ive been trying these quite a bit lately and i just cant seem to ride one out.

Everything is good until i go to set it down and i either pop the handle if i try to land wrapped or just miss the handle if i try to pass it. And most of the time when i go to pass it i can feel my front hand scraping the knuckles of my back hand that has the handle in it.

Im going to start doing them on a trampoline to practice and i think that will help, but i was just wondering if anyone had any tips or thoughts.

How are your toeside 3s landing blind?

I had the same problem with the crow mobe until I finally learned how to do toe 3s very consistent with grabs and landing blind. As soon as I did that the crow mobe was way easier. Also practice switch heelside backside 180s landing blind.

I figured that would be the next thing to practice. i never really had any desire to land blind because i always thought a handle pass looked better.

Im definitly going to start next time out though. Thanks for the help. hopefully ill ride one out this week.

TS 3's landing blind help a lot so that you don't have to focus on passing the handle and just doing the trick. What helped me with the crow mobe was just doing a normal scarecrow a little bit quicker and spotting my landing like a normal scarecrow then pulling it down to blind late. Same trick, just need to throw it a little quicker and spot your landing before you turn blind.
