i have been doing 360s for about 2 weeks and i always end up landing on my back, my binding always hits my ass and i get the hell scraped out of my fingers so i pretty much know im doing somethen wrong, either leaning to far back or something like that and if so, i am leaning to far back how do i fix the probablem so i can land it?!

 
i did that all the time last year, try doin it on different jumps is all i have to say, if you get a good one that you can stay in control when your in the air, then thats what you should be hitting, the bigger the better, it doesn't seem like it but you have a lot more time to get around and spot your landing, and if your gonna backseat you should be able to correct it before you case yourself.

stop sucking ass & maybe you will land one

i dont need shit ass remarks like that; i only needed help with a landing not askiing for sarcasim. But now i think about it that does kind help......hmmmm.

 
lean forward... go off backseat, you land backseat. im havn the same prob with my 7's and got the worst shin splints

 
when you do a 360...

-spin with your hole body

-look over your shoulder the whole time and then keep your eyes on the landing once you can see it

-when you look over you shoulder, don't look down too much (this is probably why your landing on your ass)

 
BK's right, and whoever posted saying spin with your body, that's true with any spin 3's or 7's etc just have to set up with your hip and shoulder continuing to look in the direction you spin.

 
I thought you were supossed to just swing your arms madly into the air like a ballerina?

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Ski.

 
you are probably trying to spin to early, happens to a lot of people, wait a lil longer to start the rotation

peace

 
yea whoever posted ^^^^^^^ is right, if you spin off the lip you are shot in the backseat, wait then spin.. it comes naturally after awhile

Just to beat a dead horse, take off balanced, what helped me in the pipe was having my hands in front of me and above my hips, which kind of forces you into a more balanced takeoff. Im not sure how effective it will be for 360s but I really doubt it will hurt.

Also punch your hands toward your landing right before you land, almost reaching for the landing, mogulists use this technique for a reason.

yeah this happened to me alot last year and it helps just trying to keep your skis together and stright in the air and after u stomp that try adding grabs

 
i was doin some switch 180's yesterday and i wasnt landing backseat but i was landing on my shoulder, and one of the biggest problems is looking down and 'dropping the shoulder', just dont drop your shoulder it fucks you up so bad i was going corked and almost inverted from doing that, i almost got a concussion..... so be careful....

-i just farted, can you smell it?-
 
work on staying forward on your skis period, when you land in the backseat it is probably more of a problem than just in the park spend some time on some groomers and work on staying forward on your skis by keeping your hands in front of you you may think it looks gay but when you drop your hands to your sides its a problem.

Gotta love the midwest
 
YEAH WHEN YOUR FIRST THROW THEM YOU THROW YOUR SKIS FIRST LIKE YOU OVER ROTATE JUST GO ON A SMALL JUMP AND FIRST AND HIT IT WITH URE KNEES BEND AND RELEASE WITH A SMLALL SPIN AND YOUL BE SURPRISED HOW MUCH BETTER IT IS WHEN U FLOAT IT
