I'm pretty sure i can do the trick, But any help for height/spin or other general tips would be appreciated. Anything I'm doing wrong? Well, here's me kicking my own hand on accident.

Try to spot, you are looking at the ground. Look for a target and torque with your arms.
Looks nice already you will nail it soon!

Use your arms more . Bring them up for height then wrap them around to complete your rotation .

My biggest tip is do not kick yourself on a 360 you silly guy
You've got a pretty good 360. Make sure you keep your arms in instead of just out like you are now. Try hypering it you'll love it.

It looks like either your hand just got in the way, or your flexibility isn't too great (you were a bit crunched over, but I'm stilling leaning on the simple first explanation). I think you should keep your legs a little further apart (more like shoulder width, right now they look too close, could it just be the angle?). Solid height on the jump and kick though. As mentioned before, using your arms should give you even more power and stop you from kicking them again.
i do this all the time when i am being lazy with kicks and i also have headbutted my knee when trying layed out websters ha ah

As have been said wrap your arms, don't let them fail. Try to stay upright, do not hunch over when you kick. Also two style points. Tuck you non kick leg in it will make the trick look higher also try chambering and kicking the the crescent instead of just dragging your leg through the trick.
I have done it too, my hand was numb for a minute after it :D

You should ask Scott about the time he 360'd himself in the face and broke a tooth or something.
Seriously just keep your arms bent and relatively close to your body. That's a good habit for just about any move, but especially kicks.
