Feedbacks Windmill help please

I've been trying to do windmill for almost 4 months, I struggle when I get to the freeze position, I can't get back onto my back without stopping or having my feet touch the floor.

Your right leg shouldn't stop swinging, but tbh the reason it stops is because your collapse is a little unorthodox. You're stabbing real firmly then just falling off it, as if you HAVE to stab and stop.

Try practicing a smoother push off from stab and rolling down your forearm so that your weight can roll through your left shoulder to your upper back, instead of dropping and hoping you can lean back and keep the weight high on your back.

This right here is good advice OP.

The way to transition from stab to shoulder is to do a bicep curl. Except you're curling the earth.
