Ollieing sets and shove its over sets dont bother me too bad. I would even consider myself good at them, but as soon as i try to do anything with a flip i cant keep control of the board once its in the air, it flies away from me like crazy and im doing the best i can doing them the same way i do them flat. Flat i have them perfect but as soon as i go over something the board never stays under me and i cant catch it in the air at all. Any tipssss?

well this is just me, but when i first tried them i tried way to hard to accually do the trick and not be scared. what would happen is my timing would be off, or my foot placement would be off and i had no board control. just try not to think hard on it at all. just let it flow, look the for the bolts and stomp that mother****er down

Catch it,, ,, focus on where you flick ,,right before you get to the obstacle look at your board and decide where you want your foot to go.

what helped me is i changed my foot position to a bit different than i would when im doing the trick on flat. for example i moved my front foot up a little bit more on my kickflips and that seemed to help me.

Work your way up, do ledges, them=n maybe a 3 stair etc.. you'll need to keep balanced when you land too...
