Every time I do a scarecrow I over-rotate the flip, and I cant seem to slow down the rotation. Any tips are appreciated, thanks

What do you mean over rotate? You land over the front (tip) of the board, or you slide out on your toes?

I don't have this trick totally dialed, but it helps me to instead if thinking crow coming into the wake, just think of throwing a 2 handed ts frontroll. The rotation is pretty effortless.

I havent put any on the computer yet but i will let yall know when I do. When I say over-rotate I mean i land way over my heels as in over-rotating the flip part of the trick. Sliding out over your toes is under-rotating it

Thanks Nick. Andy, the video is being uploaded right now. Is there any reason why my video's on youtube take over two hours to upload? I mean really they are less than two minutes each usually w/ music.

Don't throw yourself, just stand tall on you front leg and let the wake punch your board!

I'm sorry for the excessive use of the fashion air, and the sloppy tindy half cab haha. My parents wanted some weird photo's and that was a photo shoot day.

looks like u are coming off ur edge super early on the frontroll and the crow and kinda throwing the rotation with your body... use a little harder edge and come off slighty at the base of the wake. Not so much that u lose ur speed and pop that looks like what you are doing. But the crows look like they are right there. B careful i blew my knee overrotating one

Approach the wake equal pressure on both feet and stomp your front foot on the meat of the wave like you are a 3 year old having a tantrum and bam an over the top Scarecrow. "enjoy"

haha thanks guys. I will try to wait longer, and the front foot thing i havent really thought of that before. Is there anything i can do to spin the 180 earlier? i think it looks better earlier with a grab when i finally get there
