Try to make sure you keep your weight moving/leaning forward. Also when your wheel taps the bike sort of stops spinning but make sure to keep your weight spinning around. It will feel much better with a slow carving kind of spin as well, and not just twisting like mental. Good luck and enjoy, its a super fun trick.
