I was interested how these places looked like behind the barrier so I flew there with the freecam mod. Made these photos to save you the time. I always circled the area where I went with the camera.
It's been two months since I posted a question here regarding TD Raiz. Huge thanks to all people who gave me advice. I made a progression but I still struggle with the landing. The trick does not look that difficult, I don't know why I still can't nail it after such a long time. Please take a look here:

As you can see, I touch the ground with both hands. Even when I focused on keeping the right hand on my chest, I had to touch the ground in the end. I think the problem is not the hand alone. I also stop the motion after the trick, not like other people who can use the momentum to start other tricks.
I have watched slowmo videos, tutorials, but can't identify what should I focus on to fix this. I really like how Johsuke does the trick, I even made a comparison to see what I do differently, see below:

I have some ideas:
- Not bending enough. He clearly has the chest more open than me.
- Jumping too high. Should I try to delay the jump even more? But I sometimes don't get enough momentum when I try that.
- My leg is not straight enough. I saw other people not having perfectly straight leg either and still landing properly so I guess this is just aesthetic thing.
As many people in tutorials say: "Focus on one thing at a time." What do you think should be my main focus? I experiment a lot, try various stuff but it seems like I need to fix one fundamental thing but I am not sure which one. Thank you for reading this post anyway!
Would be a bit better if they added some checks for this and stuff like rocks etc. But funny!
