I see a lot of reverts immediately after a landing. Why land the other direction at all?
I think quick reverts take away from the trick you just landed, discourage people from learning to ride both backwards and forwards well, and discourage people to think in terms of lines.
If you need to revert, I get the impression you've either slightly missed your landing or not planned your line well enough.
When one of our pros hit three jumps in a row (let's say forward/backward/backward) without a revert, lands and rides off without a revert, it looks natural and smooth. I think our sport can improve its style in this area.
