As I flake ( mostly pressure with copper ) and I try to shoot a flake, all that happens as I do this, the angle of my olatforms get steeper and steeper until it resebles a cliff more than an edge. What am I doing to make this happen and how to I get better results.

This thread may help, even if you are not working slabs. It explains how and why flakes run long or short.
