Im tryin to do my first 7, but it feels so natural to stop at 540, so thats what i always end up doing. How do i get over this?

 
yea im at the same spot, i stop at 360 though, im thinking of maybe closing ym eyes next time i get around to 3

i can only do them on big jumps, and i have a similar problem, i tend to slow alot at 540. Just throw your shoulders a little harder than 540 and keep ur head looking in the dirrection ur spinning. Try to keep yourself in a good curled up rotation and just open up as ur second spin comes around. Grabbing also keeps ur spin smooth

311 is the Fuckin Shit Mutha Fucka
 
to get mine i just had to boost of the biggest jump in the park. now i can throw them as good as 360s like 3 yrs ago.

 
i did mine fit less than to weeks ago... i just went for it telling my self to not pussie out n keep spinning whatsoever, even if i dont make, n well i made it, fell afterwards but spun thw whole way around n made opn my next try

good luck

it's a lot easier and more fun on a big jump. spot at 360 and figure out where you're going, then turn your head, tuck up and keep going.

my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.
 
yo, just comite, i landed my first 7 today 2, they not hard, i had to do one of a mogul jump and thats like twice as hard as a regular jump. anyways, just commmite to it, spin fast and in your head say you can do it, then you will. and keep your head up so you dont land backseat

$*$*$*C*C*R*$*$*$ Go huck yourself!
 
yeah dude theyr not that hard, just set ur spin a little earlier than a 5 but dont huck it by any means, and then jus wrap it around past a 5

don't worry im not racist i have a colored tv

i learned them a couple weeks ago, if you set a hard rotation and just stayed tucked until you spot the lander after 5 u should probly be all set

Land Shark, Land Shark.
 
Just keep your head turned.

If it feels natural to stop at 540, when u pop off the lip and u begin ur rotation throw ur arms around to speed up ur rotation. As u get more and more used to landing the 7 stop throwing ur arms through and u shouldn't have a problem stopping at 5.

 
haha, just wait for concept_dude to come in and say something like 'yeah, when I throw 7s i do it like this'

i pooped a hammer
 
look, just keep lookin for that landing

just visualize it and throw the spin, and keep looking for your landing, just see it at three real quick then look over shoulder for landing and bam stomp that shit

i find it best to take reverse safety if you're spinning left, before i thought that i landed backseat all the time but it keeps me in good balance and my spinning is smoother

 
its all in your mind, if you think 540 then another 180 your most likly gonna stop around 5 and die. think 720 and keep spinning. its a whole different feeling then a 3 or a 5 and a trick in its own so try that.

just keep the head looking into the spin...keep you shoulders into your spin also...it'll just happen if your confident
