Tried 360 today. Can't get the rotation. I get like 270 around and get get it any further. I know i gotta rotate faster but not sure how to. Any tips?
 
Your probably opening up and not realizing it. try to stay tucked longer and keep looking over your shoulder
 
keep looking over your leading shoulder, and let your upperbody lead the rotation. dont just huck your body off of some small bump
 
If your only spinning 270 its because your not looking around. 360 is the easiest trick in the book. Just pop and look around until ur at 360. If you come short its because your not looking around the last 90.
 
if u wanna get good at 3's just throw em off every natural lip you can find then before you know it you'll be able to do them on the ground
 
just wind up pop off the lip lead with ur toes and be looking over ur shoulder for the landings... piece a cake my man..

whats the new trend in close?
 
not sure if this will help you but point yer skis in a tiny triangle before you spin it helped me keep balanced in the air and keep spinning
 
I found that i could never get around and be level to the ground by looking over my shoulder. Id always go like you and then id be leaning back to far and almost get around but then id always fuck up. Then i tried looking under my shoulder and that kept me perfectly oriented to the ground and i can still see where im going. Now i can do them by looking over my shoulder but i dont let myself lean back, but you might want to try the under your shoulder method, it got me rollin on the whole spinning thing...
 
if you pull your arms and legs in tight toward your body it helps you to rotate faster than if you're spread eagle.
 
The biggest thin for me to get the whole way around without being to backseat or anyhting was to try grabbing. Try for a safety, and even if you don't get it, compacting your body seemed to work for me.
 
throw it hard with your head and shoulders. if you focus on throwing your shoulders with your head it can help keep you balanced in the air (at least for me)
 
straight air is the easiest, duh! When I 360, I just close my eyes, huck, scream, and pray to god that I will survive.
 
yea i did that for a while just turn your head mad quick and spot where the landing the whole time the rest of your body will follow atleas thats how i do 360's
 
Having a wide stance just before you come off the lip helps me spin a lot. As you pop and come off the lip bring them together and for me it helps me spin a lot faster. Bigger jumps help too. Once you get them on small jumps step up to big ones, and then you'll realize its way easier off big stuff.
 
Come into jump with legs about shoulder width apart. Throw the spin with your uppper body (arms, chest, head) as you pop off the lip. (Be sure and pop, don't suck it up. Also, don't take off early.) For a big spin, I'll use the inside edge of my right ski (when spinning left) to set my rotation. From there, just keep your head in the spin till you can spot your landing. If you pull things in tight, you'll spin faster. However, be sure and look at the horizon and not down so you don't go off-axis.
 
take off with a wide stance, and the bring ur feet together. but make sure ur head and body are following your rotation and not just hucking with your arms
