Are you pulling the handle? If so it will cause you to rotate. Your arm should be fully extended for a tantrum. It should be pulled in close to your body for a tantrum to blind.

i had the exact same problem. for me, it wasn't a problem of pulling on the handle...i was turning my head to try and spot the landing. what finally got me over the hump was basically not using my head at all...almost concentrated on keeping my chin pointing down. i also concentrated on taking my rear hand off of the handle about 5 - 10 ft out from the wake. good luck!

I you are spinning, you're either turning your head, or pulling the handle to the front of your body, or both.

I had the same problem with landing mine, and just finally got it dialed in. For me, it's all about squaring up to the wake, if I don't do it right, I'm in the same position as you, but when I get the cut right, it's butter
