its actually a pretty easy rotation when you get over it being scary. But you should def have some switch spins down. Once you feel comfortable be looking over your shoulder, wide stance WAIT till your at the lip of the jump then throw your right elbow to your left knee just like your throwing a misty and it should come right around. make sure your patient for the lip though, especially because your not that comfortable going off jumps switch…

Goodluck

Is French your first language?

I am not good at these though, but I landed my first try. I think that was due to the fact that I had taken off of this jump and spun switch 5's several times that day before I went for the rodeo. You need to be comfortable with switch spins so that you can understand when to pop and throw it, so I'd say start there.

I would definitely recommend becoming more comfortable with jumping switch first, but once you do that switch rodeos are a really easy and fun trick. Come in with a nice wide stance, wait until the end of the lip, get a nice solid pop and throw your right hand to your left knee (reverse this if you spin right). You should be able to see your landing for a large majority of the trick and it's a really easy rotation to bring around. Good luck!
