theloungelife and vissnz. I learned TS front rolls before getting my scarecrows so my experience with them is probably a little different. Scarecrows/frontrolls are a "trip" flip similar to tantrums in a way, its really important to have a smooth progressive edge into the way and make sure to ride all the way through the top of the wake before initiating that "trip", with a good pop off the wake they its pretty easy to get the rotation of the flip. more specific with scarecrows having the handle locked in by your hips is key in the air, you want to leave the wake with the handle locked in by your front hip and midway through the flip pull the handle towards your back hip, which will help bring the board around. This will also help you stay on axis and keep the board from getting too far behind you in the air. The quality of OP's video is is not the best quality so its hard to tell but it looks like the handle is closer to your face while you're at the peak of the trick which is why the board is getting behind you, making it harder to rotate the 180 as well as causing you to land way too far on your heels. try to keep that handle down by your hips and you should have a little more success with it
Hope this helps, good luck on landing it!
