^ Hey you're awesome. I explained everything pretty well, so maybe a question should precede that interrogative mark.

I have this small setup around my house with a few pieces of plywood leaned up against a tree to make some sort of "vert ramp" except the plywood part is already almost vertical and is there purely to help me with the angles of the tree.

Okay! So what I'm trying to say is almost immediately after you hit the plywood your vertical.

I've seen the "pros" doing this in mag's and they are like 15 feet vertically up the tree in the middle of a barspin or tailwhip or God knows what else.

How do they do it? I shot up the tree and turned it around like I do on vert but I cased it everytime, I must have tried it 4 different ways and 20 times each. Just simply going up and turning it around shouldn't be too hard, so I think I'm doing something wrong, especially since I'm not going up that far.

Any tips? Please! Sorry for the big long reel, but this has got me puzzled.
