I have a problem. I naturally spin counter clockwise fine. On the tramp I can spin counter-clockwise fine up until 720. Whenever I try to spin a cc 720 I get off axis and land on my ass or something. The thing is, I can spin clockwise 720s fine on the tramp, but not 5s or 3s. WTF is with this? I wanna try a 7 at camp this summer and I wanna get this sorted out. Can anyone else relate to me? Got any tips? I think it would be great to learn unnatural 7s but Im not sure if I wanna try and huck it unnatural style, I wouldnt feel comfortable at all.

Yeah, I plan to...but I just re-learned my 540s at the end of the season, but now the snows gone, and Im just confused. Im totally craving snow right now, its fucking driving me crazy, everytime I hear a song that pumps me up I think of skiing.

Yeah, tramps aren't a good yardstick for spinning in skiing, in my opinion.

Yeah, defanitly don't judge your spinning ability on a trampoline. Then again, you could just suck in general? ;-)

there's a video in the video section of a guy spinning a switch misty 1260 or something crazy but i get he couldn't do it on skis on a jump that doesn't land to powder. And if he could well we'd all know his name

 
i can spin both ways the same on a tramp but i cant to a clockwise spin over a 180. it doesnt have much effect on you so just go try it.

i can do a 900 on my good side and i usually beat in...if i throw offside, i can spin a clean 1080, and stick the landing....the thing is...on a tramp, most people get used to throwing corked, or off axis tricks, and that causes your straight axis to get screwed up....snow is so much different...so dont worry about it

 
um...well I can do a natural 720 on the trampoline and a un-nateral 540. But my newest trick that I can hardly believe on trampoline is a rodeo 720!!!!!
