Any tips for these tricks, especially the axle stall, its annoying me because I can never seem to get my body up the ramp so my weight is centered over the board, instead I lean out to the transition and fall down, maybe I turn too early? Similar thing happens to me when trying disasters.
Thanks for any advice/tips you can give

Concentrate on rock fakies and rock n rolls first, firstly of the two, rock fakie. If you can ride up a quarterpipe and back down fakie then you should be able to do this. Just practise going up, lifting up the nose and putting it back down again (underneath the coping) then just take it higher until you can do it over the coping. BUt make sure you lift the nose high enough to get the trucks back over, otherwise you will hang up.

Then get kickturns down on quarters, and once you have, just get into rock fakie, but make sure as you get in, your kind of facing behind you (away from coping) so your body is sort of twisted, and just kickturn out, but make sure you lift the nose high enough to get your trucks over the coping!

I to have been learning axle stalls recently and have found that i found it easier by taping my front trucks at an angle onto the coping and then over time trying to get my back trucks closer and closer to the coping until i eventually got it so both trucks were firmly over the coping.

Hope this helps.
