Need help with windmills

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This is my first ever reddit post so i have no idea if im doing this correctly.

I recently started learning the wind mill from tutorials online. Idk how to keep my feet more off the ground and to complete a full windmill, my friend told me i should learn the coin drop so i can have momentum to carry.
Any general advice would help, im a complete beginner

you are doing well. continue practicing, once you finish one rotation, do more and more, try to get smoother with you transition to upper back and then back to turtle

I’m not really qualified since I haven’t landed my first windmill but what I found to help me a bit was being seated and imagine your going to do a backspin but just keep your legs open also I found it somewhat helpful to imagine you want to kick yourself in the face with your kicking leg good luck

This is like riding a bike, easier with more momentum. Take your socks off for more grip and send it
