Backing up 5th Wheel trailers---
The best technique I learned about backing up 5th wheels was to frequently " pull forward and back up" as many times as needed to keep your 5th wheel as straight as possible while backing up.

Take your time, don't let anyone, including yourself, rush you. We practiced at a school parking lot and DH even had me back it up so that I would understand what he's doing when I'm the spotter with the walkie talkie.
