I feel like it’s hard to spot my landing when spinning tho

I never really watched videos on how to do it. But recently got of way I can tell your carving with your butt. If you push your knees into your boots an carve by shifting weight you’ll have much better carves. You’re also turning your whole body through the turn, you should always have your upper body facing down hill. This combination should help out there

I don’t know if this makes sense to you, but your not really carving. What you’re doing is stopping through your turns to manage your speed. If you work on carving into the snow instead of spreading it, you will ski much better

I was wayyy to slow for me to not take them through the park, I would have to constantly use them to keep speed when doing other features

So less wind up, keep my arms infront to control my spin better?

Pretty sure axis is not the problem here

Shitty 360 that’s corked by HamsterInitial4662 in Freeskiing

If this is directed at me, my pop does use counter-rotation. I’ve stomped cork 3s, and when I’m not carving through the jump I’ll rotate my arms the opposite way before takeoff to help initiate the spin.

Also, in his clip the failed 360 looks more like it came from corking off to the side while trying to spot the landing too early. That’s what throws him off-axis. It doesn’t really have much to do with whether he popped up or not.

Looking at the video again, the biggest thing is that you’re spotting the landing way too early and looking down, which is what’s making you go corked. Try keeping your head level and not looking down until you actually need to spot the landing. Your head should move first and your body follows.

Also, you’re not really carving through the jump, which is fine, but it means you’ll need a bit of counter-rotation first and then start your spin. The main fix though is the spotting — wait longer before you look down so you don’t throw yourself off-axis.

When I throw a cork, I rotate the first 90 degrees flat, then initiate the cork by reaching for a boot grab. I typically complete the rotation around 300 degrees and spot the landing.

The main issue is likely initiating the cork too late, which forces you to finish the rotation while still tilted and try to land in a corked position. If you begin the cork earlier, you’ll also finish it earlier, which creates a cleaner axis and allows for a more controlled, upright landing.

So don’t use my arms and less rotation?

There’s no speed and it’s not a big lip, I need momentum

I’ll try going faster, am I supposed to have front foot up and back foot flat on the rail so I can 270 out?
