Doesn't that give you a camel toe?

Exactly what the last two people said. It really takes a lot of practice and you need speed and to get on the sweet spot in order to keep the rotation

Also practice front camel to back camel combination spins a lot, it is basically what you are doing in a flying camel and really helps with getting your flying camel better

I can do a flying camel and it's quite fast. The trick is to not do a full rotation when you are taking off for it. When you step forward into it, dont hold the edge too long, but not too short. You should be able to feel when it's the right time to take off. That "sweet spot" is the ball of your foot and you should try to land on that after you take off.

Do you have a coach? They should watch you do it to make sure you have proper technique. However my advice is to be sure you are doing the entrance correctly, and make sure you have enough speed. Of course not more speed then you can handle, but I assume you can go pretty fast if you are working on a flying camel.

Here's a visual. I love these videos because if you pause it and move the video manually, it's like slow motion.

Just practice it because it's hard to land right on the "sweet spot" of the blade while keeping your body position correct. Because otherwise you don't carry over speed. Good luck!
