Tips on getting backwards on trick skis?

Question

I can never seem to get backwards on my trick skis. I know you have to keep your feet together, bend your knees, and pull the rope by your hip. When I spin, I'm fine for a bit, but I can't seem to find the rope with my other hand. This causes me to start coming back the same way I came, and eventually my heels dig into the water causing me to land on my back... any pointers??

Answer 1

flip the handle inrto the small of your back, physically touch the handle to your back.
