If you’re landing back seat it’s because you’re:

a) not taking off with enough shin pressure

b) not setting the spin with your knees/core enough.

Pop. Hard. You look like you got that part down pretty good tho. Really just focus on that shin pressure

Keep your head level, when you start to look down your body follows. I had the same problem for the longest time. Make it so you’re chin is parallel with the ground and look forward.

I really can’t see anything from this video but for backseat on 3s, the biggest thing is making sure to get forward when you spin.

Make a conscious effort to lean forward when you take off to get your center of axis balanced

Full disclosure I'm horrible.

The thing that kills me is that I try to push to the side to help spin. I spin right so my right foot pushes harder than my left and it throws me off and land backseat.

T sets really help fix the problem, just need to do more of them.

I notice youre up at sundance, one of the park crew is super rad and could you help out a ton... just ask for Colin, but like people said before hand, shin pressure is KEY! I also don't land as backseat when I carve into the jump but that might just be me.
