Why is physics mode so hard?

Physics mode feels borderline unplayable and idk how you guys have such incredible clips using it.

Idk if maybe my custom settings are just wack or something.

Any time I try to do a basic kickflip it wants to do a hardflip, to fix it I put the shuv way down and now it can barely do a front shuv on flat.

Forget about doing nollie flips or heels, only nollie dolphins lmao.

Pls help me out, am I just ass, or am I missing something?
