First 720!

Go for safety. Unfortunately the first time I tried to grab my 7 in an attempt to land it, I tore my ACL. I had it absolutely perfect in the air with the safety grab. It holds your posture well in the air.
 
Reach for a safety in the direction you spin and cork it a little. The harder you reach, the more you cork!
 
hmmm...perhaps the reason I tore my ACL? I may have accidentally corked a bit and not realizing it, fucking myself.
 
right hand to left ski behind binding/ left and right. You reach behind your leg and grab the opposite ski behind the binding.
 
i can never find my tail in the air on those. i think i overthink it and put my hand to low. i think mutes safetys and criticals are easiest to do in the beginning.
 
try this- a japan grab but with your grabbing hand under the front bindings, is that considered a critical? any way it keeps me ballanced very well
 
these are super helpful, so thanks. couple questions. how to blunt? and somebody explain the whole leading safety thing. if i spin left,would a leading safety grab be grabbing my binding on my left ski with left hand?
 
Yea that is critical.

^blunt is uncrossed tail. Leading safety would be grabbing left hand to left ski while spinning left. Good luck man.
