I learned these a couple weeks ago, what really helped me was flicking with my front foot

 

[Hunter Treviranus]

like how? more specific please ?

When your going up, its like you throw a whip briwhip kinda. Idk how to describe it. when you first throw the whip, instead of using back foot like i usually do, I flick the deck with my front foot, and when pulling it down to land, pull it HARD. It'll eventually just fall under your feet

Mostly commit on landing.watch the deck as it comes around on the last whip. Becomes very simple once you get like 3

i rotate it perfect but i feel like i just am flailing through the air for awhile i i dont know wheer to place my feet,also like every other 3 times i fuck up the rotation and throw and umbrella whip

If you keep landing one foot just try and force your other foot to land on the deck.
It happened to me all the time but i just kept forcing it and i got closer and closer then landed it.

I still fuck up the rotation sometimes and I've been doin them for a year. So just keep practicing at it.

i can do inward buttercup airs and all i do is chuck it with my back foot like up behind my head sort of and hope to land it hahaha

Get used to the motion, then pull up, then down both hard and really fast.
