360 help

[powderski14]

i've landed some 3's in my backyard.....tried them plenty of times at my hill and can't seem to get them right......i get 270 and my skis hit and i eject....i've been told to keep my legs together and spin with your legs close....I can 180 off of anything and can do them in my sleep and WHen i do 180's i always do them with a grab.....so do you think it will be easier for me to try a 360 with a grab and tuck my self up to get the grab??????? please give me some help cuz if i can get a 3 it will just be so much easier

 

[Silence]

yeah put a grab in..

if you are ejecting out of your bindings mid-spin, i'd be craking the DINs up half a notch and see if it makes any difference.

 

[BvK]

Yeah put a grab in

i dont really know much, but maybe hit a big jump. i learned 3's on a large jump. i think there eiser.

Make sure that you are popping before spinning, and not spinning while still on the lip. That could help. After you pop bring your legs up. When you bring your legs up, you can get grabs really easy and you don't really have to reach for them, unless they are more complicated grabs.

hes right it is so much easier off bigger jumps. You just have more time and spotting your landing is easy where as off a three footer it is near impossible

 

[powderski14]

my hill has a little 10 ft table....with a 3 ft lip.....will that work

 

[kenevil]

remember to keep looking over your shoulder, that's the key

 

[Tolz]

thats perfect. remember to keep your chin tucked into the shoulder that your spinning towards. it'll keep you spinning until you can see your landing and stick it...

do two 180's in a row in the air ^_^

 

[skiminnesota]

best advice right here

 

[Gnarshred]

^Yeah for real...

All your spinmomentum should come from your shoulders, through your hips, then finally to the skis. Throw your shoulders and your skis will follow... If you can land them in your backyard they will be easier off a real jump. The real key is to COMMIT COMMIT COMMIT

 

[landonn]

pop a ton and that will help you a lot.

 

[InfernoHits]

all my spins and everything I learn first by hucking nuts hard. Then once a land 3-5 I'll add grabs in. Try that

Change the first sentence to...

"All your spinmomentum should come from your head/neck, through your shoulders, through your hips, then finally to the skis"

Your shoulders will follow where you're looking naturally. Just sitting in a rotating desk chair, look over your should trying to look at the ground behind you without turning the rest of your body. it will be incredibly difficult if not impossible.

Looking over the shoulder is absolutely KEY. As long as you commit to looking over your shoulder, you will keep spinning. If you half-ass it, you WILL fall.

Just set the spin with your shoulders and giver er.

Just set the spin with your shoulders and giver er. The more speed the better

Your muscle-memory is trained to stop spinning at 180. Lead with your head.

look over your shoulder till you see the landing.

 

[BMB]

maybe ill do tat tmorrow

 

[notomatoplz]

if you are landing at 270 you just need a bigger jump, but you would also be more comfortable with a grab i bet

 

[TheButterHashira]

I had the same problem. For some reason learning switch 180s helped. But just keep turning your head on a medium jump and you should get it.

visualize! that works and helps in every trick
