I have tried and tried and tried lol, but I just can't reach. I'm like 2 inches away, and no matter what I do I can't reach the damn board.

Once you get the pop off the wake, don't throw your head back immediately. Lift your knees to your chest, grab it indy, then look back and throw your shoulders rearward. A slower rotation (ie, this late rotation to get the grab first) might throw you off at first, but it's like pulling your legs in when spinning around a chair, the rotation will be fine.

Yeah, you have to make sure and look at the board and make sure and get the grab before initiating the flip.

deffinately look down cause throwing your head back makes you get all stretched out. after you grab then you can look back
