Need tips for making 360's look "stylish"

as far as rails go

feet like shoulder width apart, don't lean forward, don't lean back, stay centered, look at the end of the rail
 
The most helpful thing to do would be to watch alot of nature documentaries on gorillas, and just try to emulate their mannerisms and movements.
 
Ok so basicly style is makeing something look easy, the more u do it the more natural it will be for you the better it will look. It also helps to have ur stance atleast sholdier with apart and bend ur knees a bit. U dont have to grab, sometimes its cooler if you dont jsut dont flail ur hands around. make ervy movement look intenional and dont flail
 
yeah...that sounds good. so basically just keep doing 3's until i become good enough at them when i can just do them really natural?
 
Just get really comfortable with them and your tricks will look good. A forced style never looks good, although most people don't realize it.
 
u can stand striat up like a penicl as long as it looks like u ment to do it and all ur movements look natural and u dont flail. Forced gorilla steeze looks worse then no gorilla steeze, make it natural
 
i dont do pencil 3's, i actually have my legs quite far apart...just my friends say i'm spinning really fast, so i guess just keep doing it until i get comfortable and can do them slow...
 
I have trouble with railing. At the hill I work at, at least. The rails at Wawa are flat, and seem kinda easy. But over at my place they're double barrled, and I don't know, but I have a tough time.

A friend helped me out today, caught the snow few times, really fucked up my thumb, but I guess according to him, I drag my back foot. I guess he's right, I realized I completely forget about my back foot, and have no idea what it's doing.

Anyway, I did most of the rail once, but last time I caught the minor 'up' part, cuz I didn't jump, hit the thumb hard again, and didn't wanna mess it up even more cuz it really feels messed up now.
 
grab at 180 and spin slower, dont pre wind, i never pre wind even for 7s, just use your shoulder, you can decide how fast you spin by the speed your shoulders rotate when u jump
 
make your feet wide in the air and bring your feet up so its easer to grab and also stay realaxed and as far as rails goagain keep your feet wide and your body low
 
saw this guy in the park the other day hit up a big jump, totally wound up before he took off trying a 3, then ragged it round in the air and one of his skis went flying off. He didnt land so well. Dont think hed even tried it on a smaller jumps first. Just hit up the big shit. Stupid! looked totally shit before hed even took off. making it look good is what its about!
 
i just really got the hang of my 3's a while ago..i found them soooo much easier to do with a grab....keeps the rotation going i think.

-when approachig the jump, try not to wind up at all

-upon takeoff, start rotating

-the key to rotating is looking over what ever shoulder youryour spinning to

-spot your landing.

-GRAB!

-try and make it look steezy
