Is it purely about the timing of your lift, take off and tourqe?

I find that I land mine really low and I'm not sure why.

I'll put up a vid tomorrow just so people can understand/give accurate pointers

Can you standing flash kick pretty high ya?
Can you land an Aerial with your chest high?

Just throwing some questions out there.

Jay R said, hump the air after you jump. Worked wonders for me.

Yeah my flashkick is high.

No actually I really cant aerial sometimes. When I do it right I land near perfect but sometimes I forget to keep my leg driving through...I might be not driving the leg through as much then?

Speed.

I got hella fast...just low as anything

Yeah I saw a vid of jerm and he mentioned pushing your hips, I'll try that too

the thing about raiz is everyone will tell you to ARCH YOUR BACK but even if you do so you will be licking the floor if you don'T give yourself enough AIR. you really need to jump to have a high and plesent raiz. Forgive me if this doesn't suit some of you but raiz is more or les in the hips... when you first learn to aerial... you learn how to jump, kick your leg back really hard to swing your body over and use your arms right? those 3 things are major factors to getting an aerial and you need them to be perfectly timed to have an awesome one. That being said, a raiz is an aerial gumbi you should work on getting the 3 major factors which is JUMPING, KICKING YOUR LEG BACK, and archign your back.The reason i don't put as much emphasis on the back is beacuase people will arch and forget the 2 others making their raiz underground level.

I learnt this trick just like the aerial: time your back leg, back and arms right and you proly will have a better raiz. and personnally i think of kicking my leg back hard and arching at the same time and use my arms to turn around it's sort of hard to visualize but it works for me! :)
Best of luck

sorry if I offended some with this.

Keep your chest up higher if its too low....but got to remember to kick your leg up harder if you do that.

Use you arms and hump the sky.

Aittee I went the gym, I can do them now aparently haha.

I was talking to some guy about it and he was like I just relax so i can arch easier.

So I kicks hard like normal just then relaxed and low and behold low raiz without a problem.

I s/t a low raiz yesterday.i find them a bit difficult to swing through.

I believe you have to kick up hard with that swinging leg.I also try keeping
my hips up high and turning over with a lot of torque.You also try getting fast gumbis.Maybe this will help you

The arching feels kinda scary.I want my low raiz to be like Prodigy's.Like when you swing up then torque your shoulders,It feels like my heead is going straight into the ground.But then I get over just fine.I wanna combo with them soon.
