Lincoln Loop Help

So this weekend I was trying lincoln lincoln loops and I have been having problems with them. I tried about 15 times and I would either land really back seat and ride away on my boots, or I would get about 80% of the rotation and just stop rotating and land on my side. Another problem would be if I tried hucking it super hard to get the full rotation I'd spin a 180 and almost do an under flip. Any tips so I can hopefully land it today? Thanks.

do you tuck when you lincoln? if so try to tuck forward a bit. As you flip, lean your head forward (chin to your chest) to help try and make you land forward. You're probably setting slightly backseat. Also bigger jumps will help give you time to adjust rather than just hucking.

what he said ^ pop and set it more forward, almost like you are jumping into it and make sure you focus your sight in one spot directly ahead. Also make sure you aren't dipping a shoulder when you pop

Thanks guys, I think I got them down pretty good. Next weekend I'm also going to try and set them more forward and see if that helps bring them around easier.

Don't start the rotation until you are in the air, like pop, and then initiate the trick. If I set my trick before I pop I land way back seat especially with Flat 3's, Backflips, Rodeos, etc.

Tried this technique and landed the Lincoln. Definitely worth a try.
