Carve more

I can't quite land them but I've gotten close to get more spin for (rightside)I throw my left hand over and down harder, it helps a lot.

first you need to get alpha 1's

 

[ForeverYung]

This, then spin 180 more and boom. But of you don't have alpha 1's you will explode apon takeoff

that one was basically an underflip so just carve and set an underflip and like put you hand down last second

spin more

I do handdrag 3s and 5s regularly. For the 5 it helps to have a bit more speed. Set your rotation a bit harder, pull in your knees or go for the daffy-like body position to help you spin faster, and it'll come around easy all by itself.

Just spin into the future.

basically go faster and spin harder

get more horizontal, like a cork

I've always found more pop, helps. However, I've always made sure that the feature is bigger when doing this. If I were to go pop more on a smaller feature, I end up flat.

I'm also still learning the 5s though...

 

[special-J]

well have you ever tried one? It's a pretty simple concept...

the first time i did one it was on accident. i set for 3 and went faster than usual and it just came around to 5.
