Try practicing just the flick with your foot without moving first, when you flip it your foot should be flicking it more up then out, then once you can flip it and catch it with your foot, hop your front foot on, work on it step by step and eventually you'll get the confidence to land it smoothly

Make sure that the foot that you flip the board with is not kicking to far out

You have to kick it very vertically and quickly. Just do it standing first (no movement) and work the kick from there. At that point, do it extremely slowly from the ghostride, and speed up but by bit. Once you have the motion, you can work your landing.

Dont kick out, kick up

Your probably kicking out, you want to try and kick up more! Have fun

natalia mattar

try just flipping your board until you get the hang of it

Throw it up, not into the distance

I got the same problem. When i do the trick i just a bit further so that i land on my deck. My deck moves about 5-10cm further when i do the trick. Check my video.. maybe that helps..
