I look through my feet with the back to the ground then just look over my shoulder, its only cab is your doing it unnaty tho, and I can't do that. I can't land a normal one hardly, but I don't land on my back

it was probably because you didn't catch your landing over your shoulder.

when you come off the lip, pop hard and slowly drop your shoulder as you doing your 1st 180 and than let it go till 540. Most of the time people cork but they panic at the same time so they stop spinning and hurt themselfves. The key is never to hesitate and to keep looking over your shoulder to continue spinning. Often, you only see your landing at the last second.. Think of it as if you were doing a switch 180 and then cork 3
