how to do 360"s

check the trick section in resources... its got about a milion explanations

*******************

If you saw two guys named Hambone and Flippy, which one would you think liked dolphins the most? I'd say Flippy, wouldn't you? You'd be wrong, though. It's Hambone.
 
find a 5-10 foot table strait air it a few times then through a few 180's over it. there isn't much to a 3, just keep looking over ur shoulder your body follows where your head goes

 
but...what helps for me. if u can do it on flat ground on ure feet then u can do it on snow. jsut try to lick ure back. best piece of advice ive ever heard. (just dont stick ure tongue out cause that could be gnarly)

just fucking turn yourself 360 degrees in a circle, turn your head, make sure you land at the right angle and fucking stomp it so hard your god damn ankles break

 
be sure to pop straight off the lip, don't try to carve it your first time

I was pissed cuz I could not do a three for a while. Then I tried it on a larger jump and WHAM! I stomped it. So go fast and big and spot your landing.

yeah ^^^^ i lost a 3 for a while, but if you hit a larger jump, you dont have to whip it around, its much easier to bring around and land cleanly so follow his ^^^^ advice, go fast go big

Eat, Breathe, Ski
 
For me I just went off the jump and looked behind myself as if something caught my attention and once at 270 you'll just naturally turn for the rest

 
just keep looking that all it is focus

ok, pretty mych, come up thew jump with slightly bend knees, I set my hands up a bit. pop and as ur popping just start comign around, just keep looking oiver ur shoulder and tuck up and grab for style, u will see ur landing and u pretyy much know if it's gonna be stomped or not

i like ski tricks
 
Buy Poor Boyz's 'Twin Tip Skiing Tricks and Tips'. Mike D tells it from 180's up to switch 7's. I just happen to have two shrinkwrapped copies.

$7.50 + shipping and it's yours.

 
spin with your hips and shoulders not your arms

hey man 3s r easy u dont need tips just huck it round if u really have 2 and then try style it lata wen theyre as natural 2 u as straight airs. good luck.

 
Once you get good at them, you can huck them off of little 1-2ft bumps, but until then you probably want to find a 4 ft jump. Start with 180s and throw some of them until you get comfortable with them.. Now your ready for the 3s. The key is to spin with your head, i.e. look around over your shoulder and keep looking until you spot your landing and your body will follow. Also, i found that 'cocking' my arms and wiping them around right as I took of the jump was helpful when i first started. Understand that this looks pretty ugly, but once you get better you shouldnt need to do this but should be able to just get yourself around with little effort.. This takes practice though! Just remember to always look over the shoulder and keep your head turning till your ready to land.

try em off moguls once you get the rotation the first time you will have it they are easy as fuck when you know how to do em

oh officer thats not ours!
 
if u are in decent shape u should be able to do one just standing still on ur skis on flat ground... then just do it again off a jump

i invented eBay so does that mean i get a discount on the crap u sell
 
i heard you had to own a pair of 4frnts or armadas to do twirl spins

^ u cant do 360's just standing unless ure a gay mini skiier ARE YOU?!

IT'S JUST LIKE A WOOKIE DUDE!!!
 
some of you guys are real buttholes. i just learned last year (20 years old baby!). the thing that helped me the most was throwing a roundhouse punch with my leading arm (left arm to spin right, right arm to spin left). somebody said this was ugly and I agree, but it really gives you the momentum and keeps you on axis.

they're not that hard you just gotta be brave enough to try, i landed it on the 2nd or 3rd attempt. good luck man

Yeah, but heres the thing, learning 180s are cool, but on a jump larger thatn 10 feet they are as hard as threes, at least for me. The roller idea is the best. You can go slow and under rotate and you wont die.

my brothers thought i couldnt do 360's last year but i could, its jus cuz my 180's r so much better cuz i can do them over 20 footers every time.......

IT'S JUST LIKE A WOOKIE DUDE!!!

I don't doubt this, because he asked me if i wanted to come over to his house and gerbil. I insisted that he come over to MY house, since the whole thing seemed weird. As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy
 
i say under rotate until you go negative. then you'll be doing unnatural 360s

i would say the most commen mistake people make when learning threes is looking at the ground the whole time. that tends to make your body go off center and produces nasty spills.

keep looking around leveled with your shoulders, not looking down.

if that makes sense?

I was trying a five yesterday and i landed, but my ski popped off. 3s are easy, just wind up like 10 feet before the jump, then when you get to the lip, swing your arms around and that will get you spinning. Throw in a grab or it's worthless

--------------------------------------

Don't you hate it when you have a cocktail fork and you stab yourself in the eye!? God I hate that!
 
I leanred on like semi-quarter pipish jump and i found that that is easiest. One only need to be three feet in the air to do a 3 anyway but boost bigger than you think you need to.

 
At first its a strange, out-of-control feeling but you'll get used to it. 3's will never hurt either, unless you huck yourself off a cliff or something.

try it first w/ a small jump and make sure to turn w/ your whole body not just your upper or lower, cuz that's what fucked me over. if u cant hit it on the smal one just go bigger.

Latvians rock harsh
 
360's are easier than you think, its just like a switch corked 10, just only one rotation instead of 3 , and not switch

i cant describe the vibe i get when i drive by 6 people and 5 i hit
 
k man ill share with u how i taught myself them... go up to the jump when u reach the very end of the lip turn your right ski left just a bit and pop off and keep lookin... it should feel just like doing a 360 without your skis on... and dont be scared man its almost impossible to hurt yourself on a 360 unless your doing it over a 120 footer or if you over shoot the jump by far

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

When your not sure about something, just HUCK IT!
 
i have a problem where i spin real slow but looks real stylie so i just go for the bigger jumps.
