Yes - stop trying them.

lol/

i feel like one little adjustment somewhere and i'll get them

on the last 180 of the turn insted of leaning back 100% lean 70% back and 30% towards the coping so your weight is already in motion towards the coping and just follow the momentum if need be do 90 then hop into the transition the last 90.

love this trick, I found the 'secret' is a lil flick of the front wheel ( in the direction of rotation) at the top of the transtion, the more aggressive the flick with rotation, the more rotation..
then its just a case of learning to control the spin, thats done by by lifting or droping the front wheel while rotating, kinda like the iceskaters do when their spinning..
hope this helps

Saw your facebook status the other day, spent all night Thursday trying them, didn't get closer than you.

Most people hop, or manual the last bit. I'm thinking a hop as you just pass 360 might help, hopefully trying tomorrow

spin as much as you can before you land, and stay near the coiping.
