I need help with improving turndowns, I just want them too look nicer, granted I'm learning on a short air fly out which doesn't help, but I can't tell what I should be improving on
Lie on your back with the bike over you. Spin the front wheel and then practice the motion. That’s how I learned them 22 years ago. It’s also the way several of my friends learned them. We all crank them past 270. Also think about the motion of “kick and punch”. When I learned them opposite, I found that drifting off the lip away from the direction I’d be kicking into, it helped me by partially lining up my body/legs to go into the motion.

You’re doing well but you should be a bit more vertical, as my friend would say “it’s a turnDOWN, not turnLEFT”. Apparently it makes it easier to crank them, i still sucked and gave up trying eventually.
