well to start i feel that it helps me a great deal if i angle my shoulders directly ahead of me.. helps me keep the board flipping straight. i also tend to flick my front foot more down than out and i try to flick real quick so that the board flips and hits my feet way before i land. Also don't bend you knees that much, stand a bit straighter because to much movement may throw you balance off (which is a big deal in snowskating).. that combined with a little practice should pay off.

sorry i can't make a video tutorial for you, but i'm sure someone will.

Quite frankly, I really don't see much difference, if any, between kickflipping on a snowskate vs a skateboard. If you can get them on one, you should be able to get the other. I would say kickflipping on a snowskate is just harder because of stability while riding. Just watch skateboard trick tips and you'll get the right idea.
