Do your regular 360 take off and when your in the air tuck up, reach for mute grab, grab ski, cross it and then proceed to tweak the living S out of it.

 
yeah, you just grab the left ski with your right hand (or right ski if your left handed, cross your skis, then tweak it huge

 
and for extra style points, stick your other arm out and behind your head a little

get off your computer..... go ski

ya grab ure left ski w/ right hand and pull back and make a cross...360 mutes are really tough depending on the way u spin and grab...I spin to the left and grab w/ my right hand and it totally fucks up my rotation and i eat it a lot

 
Its because you spin with your head looking too the left as you spin, but you look right when you do the grab.

Try left hand to right ski. Less head movement.

 
Yah, I spin left and grab with my skis pointing to the right, it looks super cool and I never look at my hands when I go for the grab, I just know where everything is, It also helps when you bust out of the grab coz when your skis drop they fall perfectly into a landing position, it works nicely aye, all good. And you can hold the grab for longer.

Yeah, just straight mutes are always fun to just pull out and hold. What LineSkiEastCoast said will give you nice looking mutes. The problem I have sometimes when I'm not thinking at all is that when I just do straight crosses off knolls or in spins I cross my right ski over the left, but for crossing on my side I had to get the feel for pointing my right foot down and kicking the left foot over, but once you get it you can just pop into the form.

i cant do mutes very good because i still havent learned how to tuck up my skis very well

It is unfortunate when everything seems to be going really good and the girl uses a word like 'dont', or 'stop'. If she learned to use these two words in unison, everyone would be much happier.
 
It's actually really easy... just hit a good sized jump and do it.... You'll be like 'why wasn't I doing that before?'

'What's wrong with the ceiling?'

'You're hitting it with a golf club'
 
i dont throw grabs in spins really, but if i wanted to spin a 3 to the left and throw a mute, would it fuck me up if i like to grab with my left hand to right ski?

when i grab with my right hand im always off balance

For the life of me I cant cross my mutes up more than what vinnies look like. It sucks its not an x its more like a crushed x.

'I don't get mad, I get stabby!'
 
i think they lool way better the way vinnie does 'em, when they are a big cross like moseley´s they look pretty badi think!

tweaking/body position is the most important factor of style(at least i think so)!

why do so many people talk shit about people they´ve never met?

 
well i can't do em well, but i have trouble actually keeping my skiis touching. like i can sometimes cross them like a good solid 90 but then 1 ski is about a foot away from the other one. what ya think im doin wrong?
