Just skip this for now, you keep falling through flowers, sometimes more than others. I tried 5 times, once I got almost to the top and fell through the flower. Another time I got to the middle and fell through. Could be a fun WQ but needs a fix for now.
Edit: Well another 15 tries later and I managed to do it.So if you have the patience for it go for it!
Be sure to hit the very last flower/cloud before reaching the top. I skipped it the first time and it didn't validate the WQ.
The way the game detects movement causes the issue. If you constantly turn little bits back and forth quickly, you won't fall through the flowers. Just wiggle a bit!
