Default Backside Shuvits

I'm not sure if its called a backside shuvit but its just a shuvit where the board spins the opposite way. I can get it every once and a while but i land too far back on the board a lot and when i try to compensate i just do worse. Any tips or should i just practice?

I have my shuv-its down clean.
I tried doing those yesterday for like a half an hour.
I landed a few but I keep landing too far back on the board as well.

I do remember that I was landing the same way when I was just getting my shuv-its.
Probably just takes practice.
I'ma go try some right now!

I find it helps to have a wider stance and start to lean back just as you go to shuv. Once i started doing that i get them like 1 in 3.
