I tried that and it really helps.
I can whip no prob, but I can´t put the bike with a nice sideway angle, so I can return to the original position to land nicely.
How can I correct this?
I already bent my back rim trying to get a whip near 90 degrees and don´t whant to do that again...

Erhm, make sure you poke the nose into the landing, once your front wheel hits the landing your wheel should automatically come in

Yes, but what´s the best way to get the nose into the right place?
Turning my head to the oposite side my front wheel is in the middle of the whip works sometimes but is there any better way?

What he means is, when you are turning your bars back straight(after whipped), also push the bars down to aid in bringing the back wheel back.

the basics are move your hips and legs to the side in wich you wish to whip ,
and turn down the bars A)so they are lined up to land B) to aid kicking the back out!
but dont forget you have to bring the back end back in!

Right.
As you take off, turn your bars left/right and shift your body weight with them. This should get you sideways.
You don't want a 90 degree landing, because you will end up smashing a mech or casing a rim...so you need to bring your bars you the opposite side to stop your momentum. This should enable you to land straight(ish) if you whack the bars round hard enough.
Happy trails
