Learning The Trick

General Overview

A mid air 360 spin with a grab on the tail of the skis.

Preparation

Know your 360, Iron Cross and Tail Grab. Have a decent sized jump and some speed.

Doing It

Once you set your spin, get into a tucked Iron Cross. After you have crossed up, look over the shoulder opposite of your spin and find your tail. Grab the tail with your trailing hand and pull it into the spin.

Keep looking over your opposite shoulder while still pulling the tail into the spin.

Finishing

Once you’re three quarters of the way around, find your landing. Hold on to the tail for as long as possible. Then stomp the landing you have been stareing at.

Common Mistakes

What do you not do?

General Tips

• When your going down the runway, wind up in the opposite direction of your spin and pop off the lip.
• Make sure that your head is not leaning back too much or you will go corked.
• Keep looking all the way around until you see the landing and let your knees absorb the landing.

Other Tricks

• Once you're comfortable nailing 360s then up your game 180 and go for a good ole 540.
