stoppie help

I am doing 100ft stoppies. I can't seem to control the tail of my bike trying to pass my front in a stoppie. I have tried counter steering and it does not seem to help. Any advice that anybody has on this would be greatly appreciated. I am looking to break the 1000 ft record

Keep your arms straight, look down the road, if that tail is going right push on the right bar, same with the left. Stoppies gotta be high to straighten them out.

mine does the same, it floats right and when i get it really high it tank slaps because i don't have my scott damper on it yet.

could it be because i'm a little guy? what other tips, do you all lock your elbows and how is your seating position?
