set it flatter and with more spin. spot the landing and if you still are a little short on rotation do the rest with your legs

set less flip, the 5 in rodeo's feels like it comes much earlier than you it looks like when you see it on TV (IMO). If you go for a 7 or a 9 though it feels like that whole rotation comes after the flip is done.

I don't know how to describe it but kind of focus on the spin once your head it sideways, it is actually a way more natural trick in my opinion.

i suck at this

when you first spot your landing where are your feet? If you have an answer for that PM me and I will try to help you.

set it as more of a spin and not as much of a flip.

i have the same problem with rodeos i usually do about 450, i think that it is because i set them too much like licoln loops. recently fixed them on the tramp by focusing more on the spin have yet to try on snow this year.

i find it a bit harder to get the 5 with a japan, try it with a safety and throw it flatter and you will probably get it.

Throw it less backflippy and the rotation will come around.

This,

I throw a critical in there also because I find if I don't grab I get lost and under-rotate.
