The way I flip pancakes is:
First, cook for about 5 minutes on the first side; or until you hear bubbles
surrounding the edges.
Next, gently move your spatula under the edge of the pancake to see if the
underside is firm. If it's still soft, withdraw the spatula and let cook
another minute or so.
When the pancake is ready to flip, if you are right-handed, hold the spatula
in your right hand; in your left hand, hold a wooden spoon with the side
edge will move across the bottom of the frying pan or griddle. This acts
like a guide to make sure you are centered with the spatula on the pancake.
Now, gently lift the pancake with the spatula, and with the wooden inner
"blade" of the spoon against the left side of the pancake, directly across
from the spatula.
With your pancake now on the spatula (centered) flip over.
This method has worked for me for many years. I do hope it works for you.
