Help with grabbing!

[skierbob14]

Could anyone help me with my grab on my 360's. I alwaysw stop my rotation whenever i grab.

i also can get my body to do the five but my skis just wont.

practice grabs until you dont have to look for them, then practice tucked spins and reach your arms down, then eventually work in grabs. make sure you keep looking over your shoulder instead of at your skis

i am looking at my skis to try and spott my landing. i can safety but not like tail or mute.

for the 5, maybe a bigger jump so you have more time, but if you can get the body around the skis should just follow, make sure you kick your skis around when you get to it

now to grabbing 3's, the reason why you stop spinning is because when you grab, you look for the ski, and if im thinkin of what your doing right, you are grabbing with the opposite hand to what way you are skiing (ex. spin left, grab with right hand), if this is the case then maybe try ur other hand or just make sure when you are lookin for the grab to keep ur other arm rotated around your body so you keep spinning and you are pushing your body that way, and once you have to the grab to look for the landing

if its not the case and you are grabbing with the same hand to the side you are spinning (ex. left hand and spinning to the left) then theres nuthin really different to it then a regular spin except you dont have ur arm to help bring urself around, just turn ur body and look for ur landing and it should work out for you

i suggest just grabbing under ur boot with the same ski as what hand you will grab, and use the hand that is to the side you are spinning, that way its more balanced for you, and you dont take a lot of time looking for the grab, you dont even have to look for it, its just right there, not hard to miss, and then once you've got that down move to other grabs more towards your tail or nose and maybe try the other hand

sounded weird, when your body gets to the 5, just swing ur legs around so they are there too, not much else too it, practice 3's and just spin harder

now that you think of it your exactly right! i should grab the same side im spinning to! would that even help me?

How do i nominate you for ns king or something. seriously thanks bro.

Just practice spinning with your legs tucked (bigger jumps help with this) then grabbing should just come "note" dont look for your ski when you grab, keep thinking of the spin, the spin is more important than the grab.

when doing a slow nice grab on a 3, it might help to carve off the lip instead of just trying to huck by throwing your weight around, this will alow you to focus on the grab instead of trying to get the spin around with your upper body. definitlely make sure to grab to the side that you are spinning to if you are having trouble getting it around.

that's how i think of it
