Can you do them backside? Much easier imo. For front-side you wanna go straight up the top and then turn while you are in the air. You don't wanna fly off the side like you are doing, you'll never land back in the transition that way. Check out Omar Hassan on youtube. He's got a ton of good transition / bowl skating tutorials. Here's one for skating hips specifically. [VIDEO] Btw, that video clip is amazing, thanks for posting it.

I think you mean a "hip." Then what I said especially rings true for hips. Start out low and go at it with decent speed and you'll just automatically catch air. Keep working your way up to above the coping. I think Omar hassan did a video on hips on youtube you can watch... here [VIDEO]
