Cant do a 360 anymore...

[Treestman]

i landed my first 3 like 4 or 5 years and suddenly i cant land them anymore and its really pissing me off...

has this kind of thing ever happened to someone? i just get scared and fuck them up and get off axis or something

Are you hitting the same jump. If not, a different jump might be more or less poppy so you need to compensate accordingly.

 

[dave44]

^ Yeah, I find I can do different things off different jumps.

 

[TheQuailman]

Yea, just straight air the jump a bunch and get a feel for the air time and where you are and try some grabs and look behind you to get an idea for being blindside.

And remember to pop foward of the lip to compensate for the angle of the jump so your flat in the air.

 

[Treestman]

i think i may not be popping enough and spinning too early, but ive been doing 3s for 4 years so i dont know how i start fucking em up

 

[inaba116]

Oh you said 4 or 5 years, i read too fast and thought I saw 4 or 5 days.

Thats really wierd then. Have you not been throwing 3's and only bigger spins that past few years?

 

[-lincoln-]

this happend to me awhile ago, but just look over your sholder. thats what i did.

 

[steezeonskeeze]

this is liek my second year skiing and i can 360 every time that sucks.

 

[blakroc]

spin with yo shouldasssssss

 

[marc_sncl]

spin faster. sounds weird but when i had trouble with mine a couple of years ago i just had to spin faster and then slow down for the landing, which gives you more time

 

[roor]

this is like my first year and i did my first three a week ago skechy get them on lock thou

 

[MCIRONCOCK]

Sack up, no one can really tell you how to gain the confidence, you just need to commit.

 

[Polar_Beer]

answere me this, when did you do your last sucsesfull 3. i know you said you cant remember when you started doing them wrong but can you remember when you stoped doing them right?

 

[Bigwoods]

1rst 3 I ever did : Broke my binding

2nd : Skied into the chairlift pole

3rd : Fractured my wrist

Needless to say, me and 3's don't mix.

 

[popNfresh44]

it happened to me kinda at the beginning of the season. i was landing backseat, but i found that i wasnt popping hard enough.

 

[TechnoPotamus]

i rotate to 540 easier than 360. i haven't done a 3 in so long because 5s are just so much easier for me, but if i really made the effort i think i could slow it down to a 3.

 

[Yauch]

i dont know you cant just expect that cause youve done shit before youll be able to do it forever, Every year I go skiing i sort of have to relearn alot of my shit

 

[nkinsman10]

thats what keeps happening to me i just keep needing to remind myself to do it

 

[Blurst]

this happened to me i would always land backseat on 3s and i ent to 5 and landed them fine

For me its just the jump gotta gert used to it

 

[Treestman]

meant to say 4 or 5 years "ago"

 

[Pippin]

haha i think you should just skip em and go for 5's
