    I may have better luck with that method. So basically just come off that first cone by about 3 or 4 feet then stop when the first cone is between both tandem axles then hard right followed by a hard left

    You got it. Then when straight back up until the passenger tandems are just inside the cones and then left right.

    Since i have a tendency to turn to early that should help me. The instructor was telling us the farther you are in front of the area the harder it is to turn and park. So stopping with that cone between the tandems does make sense

    I guess that depends on what you run, and where you run. I parallel at least once a week it seems

    Just don't oversteer and give the trailer time to react before countersteering. In other words, small movements and don't fishtail the truck back and forth. It takes about 8 feet of backing to get any movement out of the trailer. So don't try to steer more or steer less until you've moved at least 8 ft
