Lisa Zimmeran talks about how she learned double corks yet never learned to 360

and at 1:20 she does a 50/50 and 3 out.

I watched her at WCS doing 360's off of little side hits and shit, she was landing super backseat/sketchy on a few of them, so I'm assuming she means she can't do them on decent sized jumps cleanly.

Which to me seems totally possible, tons of kids on my ski team skipped the fundamental steps and went straight to "big tricks" I.e. switch rodeos before switch 3's, cork 9's before upright sevens

Ya i can 7/9 but I can't 3 cleanly on anything over 20ft for shit
 
Being a figure skater, she might have been used to do big spins so 7/9/10 probably wasn't hard for her and so she left out 3s.
