You proably arent kciking in the right place. Kick out to the side more and see if that makes much of a difference.

Once again, you're relying on spinning the board quickly to compensate for poor air time. As with all shove-it related tricks, Make sure you firmly snap the tail on the ground. Place the force downward as if for a heightened ollie, and, a little energy to spin the board. If you don't really pop the tail, you're kind of going into pressure flip territory, which is a no-no, and can make your board fly out from under you. People have a tendancy to not actually pop the board when doing tricks that involve shove-its... I once did it too.

Try doing it while moving so that you move with the board and land on it.

Ah, Varials, When you varial, You can use ur front foot to help guide it around, So it pretty much is going in the heelflip way, and that will help u guide it better and it helped me get it under my feet, so try that and make sure u lean foward!!!!!!!!!

i concentrate more on the kickflip, rather than the shove-it. your foot position should be like an ollie almost. yeah this trick is basically using your front foot
