One thing that was not covered in the video which is very important for 360's in to not counter rotate around the last 180. This is a very common mistake and while it can work to let you land a 360 moving up to higher rotating spins like 540's will be very difficult. If you don't know what counter rotation is it's when you twist your upper body one way and your lower body the other way. This can be used to rotate a little very fast and save yourself from underrotating/overrotating. However, many people become over dependent on counter rotation while doing 360's which is not good. Along with keeping your head looking over your shoulder (mentioned in the video) also make sure to keep your arms and hands still in the air. If you are struggling with this try some T-set 360's where you put your arms out straight like a T and keep them there throughout the whole rotation. Hopefully this helps! (Sorry for the long comment)
Thanks very helpful I’m kinda to young to be a photographer but I’m practicing and mostly just take shots of my buddies so I don’t really try anything that often but I’m gonna soon
Your tutorials are always helpful! Can you make an updated tutorial on pedaling for both ways 270s off a rail? I just need to understand the footwork a little better.
I'm so confident this video will be good I'm commenting it before the video has even premiered. I will edit this comment once I've watched the video and say if it was good or not. Edit: The video was good.
ey bro, im from germany and I really like your videos. I just bought my first twin tips (Fischer Nightsticks 2020/21) and im super hyped to try improving in riding switched and hitting grinds and stuff. keep up the good work. you really hype me up for the upcoming season and i love your videos (especially the background music ;) )
Try a lot of 180's/switch 180's and really focus on popping before you rotate and only setting the rotation with your upper body. (T-sets can be helpful for this) Then try some 360's in your ski boots and with your skis on on flat ground (its fine if you can't get a full 360 around it's just to get the feel of things) Then find a jump you're comfortable with and send it! (Again focus on popping before you rotate and only setting the rotation with your upper body) I'm sure you'll land it clean :)
backflip tutorial? I really want to send one this season. I can already do them on ground and i just took my skis on trampoline and was able to make it around and land with that but i’m scared of falling on my neck or catching my tips
What do you recommend to overcome the fear of "going blind?" Every time I try I get maybe half way around and then my body fights me and I stall out. It's like taking my eyes off of downhill is certain death or something. FYI, I can 180 forwards and switch no problem since I can keep my eyes downhill the whole time. Thanks.
Where do you normally ski at I live in south jersey i ski all around pa and go to killington I learned 180s last season and just learned how to switch 180 I wanna get 3s unlocked soon
Brooo you gotta start vlogging longer. There is 0 other channels like this one. You do great man. Maybe a "Saturday Skiing" vlog once a month 30 min long?
i have been trying for a month i just dont get what im doing wrong i dont know how to look up i can literally 180 and revert like second nature but cant land this
You can do every trick with regular skis. You will be better at them, because it will be more difficult at first, but when/if you get park skis (most park skiers use regular skis anyway) it will be easier for you to rotate, since park skis are light.

very helpful information man, much appreciated :D
Made my first 360 yesterday, landed it but I hate that I counter the rotation with my upper body, next time I’ll try to rotate my whole body. Thanks
