You rotated fine in foam man. The only thing stopping yourself is you. Believe you can do it, throw the first one after that the immeadiate fear is gone. You will still have nerves about it but more confidence.
Ya u got it man. First times always the scariest and always works out the best. As soon as you flip look straight back and find the ground. If you do that, it doesnt matter how you land, you can pretty much bail and twist out which is no big deal. Just go for it and like everyone else said, imagine your still going to foam
omg dude i know how felt on your first one and i felt so scared that i ate shit doing it but then my friend did his first try and i was like fuck it and did it again and landed it=) and now i am a flip whore and i am proud of it=P just yesterday i flipped out of a half foot little concrete ramp with like no lip and i felt like max peters
