If your problem is not getting your back foot on, then jump high and suck your legs up, when you see the griptape come back around, you gotta commit and want to land it, put your feet back on and remember to keep your arms out for balance.

try heelflips on grass and spin the board over slowly and try and land on it upside down and then try spinning the board over and you should get them. Then try them on the grass:D:D

I don't think learning to get a slow rotation on heelflips is good, unless you can already land them. Most people land on the board when it is upside down, and think they aren't getting the rotation. Look at your heelflip in slow-motion...and chances are, you're stomping for feet down on the board to early...thus stopping the rotation. I don't like varial heelflips though, even though I can do them every once in a while. Why? I can't do them NOWHERE near consistent enough...so it's not cool
