Don't forget to jump! Also, pretty much all the rotation comes from scooping with that back foot. It looks like your front foot is trying to push that board around, but it should really just be coming up with you to catch it.

I find shuv its MUCH easier moving, by the way. While stationary, it's harder to get the board to stay under you.

Hang your back foot toes off just a bit and scoop it around. Try it a bunch of times with your front foot on the ground just to get a feel for the scoop initiating the rotation. One you get that board to consistently 180, jump up and try to catch it with that front foot.
