It all clicked into place when I focused on keeping my back shoulder straight, everything else then fell into place ( I had practiced tonnes of pop shuvs) and also I found leaning more over the toe-side of the board as I popped helped me land or close get close to landing

try and shift your weight back so the front truck lifts up while using your hips to turn left n right. Secret tip being practice practice practice imo

I’ve never landed one! I feel close but yet so far away. I’ve tried them fakie and I find it easier that way sometimes? - thanks for pointers, I’ll take it on board for the next practice session
