Yes, this happened to me 3 times when I first started landing scarewcrows. The trick is to go up and over the handle, not out back and around the handle. Another thing is to throw your shoulders straight towards the wake you are edging towards. This will keep you going straight over the handle. Another thing is to keep both hands on the handle when learning the trick, your body will naturally spin 180 after you throw your shoulder forward.

its a trip flip like a tantrum. Come in on a strong edge and as you start to ride up the wake back off and let the wake do the work for you. Make sure you a get a good push off your front foot. Keep your elbows in and you will rotate around the handle and be ready to make rotation adjustments should you have to.
