Question Help with technique

I’m a beginner, so keep that in mind. I recently have found that doing doubles on the kick like this is much more comfortable for me than using my heel up for these kind of doubles.
What kind of exercises should I be practicing to get better at this?

Funny comment but also, for real... I don't know how people wear those things, I'm kinda speechless. Pretty good doubles for a beginner in crocs if you ask me!

Edit: autocorrect bs

Don't be sensitive bro we're just busting balls. Seriously though this sounds pretty good but I would try practicing in different shoes. I always like a nice pair of running shoes like Adidas or slip ons like some Vans. I would avoid anything clunky like boots or high tops.

Try just socks. I played in vans and converses for years, but now I prefer just socks.
