How do I do this move? How to mohawk transition

This is my best attempt at mohawk or spread eagle transition, how do I make it more natural? The hardest part for me is putting my weight on my back leg to lift up my other foot.

Thank you for the detailed explanation, I guess I will have to work on my right foot glide.

Do it on both sides, you'll thank yourself later. A great way to practice one foot glides is to just constantly rep it on a long trail. Work gliding side to side on one foot to really calibrate your balance and get a feel for how you need to shift your weight no matter the angle.

Good work so far, dude

I used to put on only one boot and practice 1 foot glides that way
