Just wondering where most people keep their head slash eyes through spins. I have the tendency to look at my skis while in the air is this wrong?

Also any tips on grabs for spins and how to get them involved

Cheers
 
eyes kinda at the knuckle. Dont look at your skis

Grabs. bring your feet to your hands, not the other way around.
 
you want to look for your landing in the air, if you are just doing 3's an small spins like that, set it, look over your shoulder until you can see the landing, spot your landing, stomp it.
 
First off why would you type "slash" rather than just use this: / haha, anyway.

Spin with your head, looking over the shoulder you're leading with, eyes forward and not looking down until you really want to spot the landing. Most of the time you don't have to move your head to spot just glance down as you finish the rotation.

Also practice lifting your knees up to help you with grabs if you haven't been told that already. Get comfortable with your spins and raising your knees and feet and then add some safeties or whatever you want to start with.
 
thanks guys, i've wondered why it has been feeling so weird. i get 180 with a grab and hardly make it any further round. i hope this is because i look down instead of forward.
