any feedback to my heineken jibes and tacks?

Hi everyone,

I am 81 kg (180 lbs), lake, around 12 knots but lulls from 8 to gusting to 20. 100L mid-length, 7m wing and axis art v2 1099 (1220 cm2, ar 10) 

I would love your feedback on my heineken jibe and tacks so created this video (all in the same day)

I am not consistent with the jibe. Sometimes I have the wing above my head but if I nosedive a bit, the wing just prevents me from rotating. I just started with tacks and I did better than usual in these two videos. Most of the time it seems like I can't start turning, the wing just slows me down. 

I will take any feedback - general comment or specific to each video. Much appreciated.

clip 1 - seems okay. What say you?

clip 2 - what could I have done better to avoid slowing down?

clip 3 - it seems good but I hit the board. Should I keep the wing higher like in video 2 or somehow in between like in video 7? 

clip 4 - seems like my best jibe

clip 5 - this happens a lot to me

clip 6 - the other way. It seems like I was nosediving the wing like in video 5 but maybe because my dominant hand is my right, i was able to control/recover?

clip 7 - similar to video 3 but didn't hit the board

tack clip 8 - looks okay but I slowed down. I felt like going into the tack i had a pretty good speed

tack clip 9 - my wing was all over the place. What can I improve?
