Help with flat 9s

I can stomp flat 3 everytime and flat 5 the majority of the time, flat 7s are on and off. The problem I'm having around/after flat 7 is that I start to go into another flip rotation. How do I keep spinning without going into another flip?
 
Flat 9s?!

I mean, there are about 5 skiers in the world who have ever had legit flat 9s. The triple cork club isn't as exclusive as the flat 9 club. Even rodeo 9s tend to turn into bios and shit. My simple guess is you're tucking your head way too hard off the lip, and you should instead be trying to work on cork 9s, but internet coaching isn't worth much. Post a video?

As soon as you come out of the flip, spin like hell. I land flat 9s on and off. They hurt extremely bad if you fall, and are one of the most frustrating tricks to learn. But when you do land them they are the most satisfying trick ever. Get super comfortable with rodeo/flat 7s first. I learned flat nines by trying flat 7 shifty and overroatating. I do not recommend learning this way.
