What skaters said on Reddit
It sounds corny but practice them on flat. Practice a tail stall on the ground and leaning forward to get the motion. You have to lean way forward, like almost in front of the board when you’re pushing down. [VIDEO] Your body will unconsciously want to lean back because it’s quite literally falling, and our instinct is to stop our body from falling forward, so you’ll lean back. Practice tail stall lean forward on flat, do it a ton of times, then go for it. I recommend wrist and knee guards if you’re geeked. You got this.
[VIDEO] - please watch this and just commit, practice on a bank first, will be easier ( something without a coping on top ) , extra easier if you have a friend with you that knows how to drop in already, he can hold your hand or something so you get less scared
