Okay I just got my bindings remounted from -1 to mathmatical center, and I cant even 3 right... I know, da fuck? my problem is I am landing way way backseat. I really dont understand why I cant do a simple ass 3. I guess I need to start new... facepalm. I guess if anyone could set my straight on this.
 
-1 cm shouldn't make a huge difference. Make sure to pop off the take off and keep your arms up at your chest when you're trying to keep 3s on axis.
 
there is no such thing as mathematical center. Skis have 2 centers: weight and length. -1 mean 1cm behind length center.

Why cant you land a 360 now? You have never done it correctly since day 1. The fact or backing you 1cm back will shorten considerably the tail length. The tail will have less support, throwing you backseat and making pivot very easy.
 
The only thing you can really do is lean on tongues of your boots more off the takeoff, and also make sure you are spinning after the end of the takeoff, because your skis are longer in the back and if you spin on the jump you will go off axis, and land backseat
 
I think it's in your head, man. Just do one off some tiny little side hit to get the feel of doing one again.
 
That was painful to read.

Sounds like you need to pop more and get more aggressive on the lip of the jump. Maybe where the skis are mounted is getting to your head?
 
You seem like a rather intelligent young person. I would like to hear you take on the American economy post civil war area.
