Hi!
So, like everyone, I am having a lot of trouble on my axel. Every other single jump I can do just fine and even my doubles are fine on the harness. I have been practicing an axel for 3 years now and I still can't get it. I usually do my axel from a tap toe or moving a little while on the harness. Sometimes I land them and sometimes I don't. My take off and rotation is fine I think. However, what is really bugging me is that I keep falling on my left side instead of my right side when I fall on my axel. I know that is the one thing you don't want to do is fall on your left side. I fall on my right side for every other double jump; however, I can never seem to fall on my right side when I fall during my axel. Any tips on how to fall on my right side? This is probably the main reason why I can't land it off harness. Also, are there any tips that you can give if you keep leaning back in your take-off from your axel?
THANK YOU! I hope this makes sense.
