What are zero spins, how do u do them? ive heard of them but dont know what they even look like. ive used the seach bar but no help
 
Basically, a switch straight air, take off switch, land switch, no rotation. They're difficult and risky because your basically blind te entire time in the air, and theres no way to spot the landing.

Learn how to take off switch on smaller jumps first, stick to doing 180's so you can see your landing. Start zero'ing small stuff, then move up to switch 1's off larger features to get the feel of when to pop and how to pop when switch. Once you're good and comfy there, man up and try it. Throw in a shifty or kang for stlye points.
 
when i do them i look at the ground...there isnt much else to look at but that helps me straighten out a lot
 
not really done that much anymore. they used to cool, but then everyone was just like meh those are not cool anymore. so if you wanna go pro don't even bother with em.
 
yeah take off swich and land switch. you cant look over your shoulder cause if you do youll spin thus wrecking your zero spin. instead of looking over your shoulder look between your legs at the ground so you know when to brace for the landing.
 
to those who say you cant look back on a zero, i say watch mike wilson in yearbook (before he fucks himslf on the 180 gap)
 
yeah so basically ive been workin on em since the beg of the season...first off you gotta be super comfortable skiing switch and super loose...otherwise ull wake up with a real neak ache. You gotta bend ur knees while approaching the lip and pop as soon as u feel the lip pushing on your skis...tuck in the air and shifty that shit out, then look back and down at the landing...a good tip is to lean a bit forward in the beginning (towards the jump) and then smile!
