Indy HS/BS 360
1. Once you have indy backside airs down, this move will seem fairly easy. Commit to the backside 180 and then just move your hips one more time on the landing by moving the handle across your body and away from the wake...

TS/BS 360
1. This is the most underrated 360 of the four. Once you learn the first backside 180, for the second half of the move just move the handle hard across your body and pass it as soon as possible...

TS/FS 360
1. It really helps to think of this move in two parts. So don't think 360 when you approach the wake -- think grab 180. If it's a good one, pull the rest of the spin on the way down. 2. The key to landing this spin is not allowing your head to come around to the boat on the landing...

TS/FS Off Axis 360
1. The key to having great control as an off-axis spinner is spending a lot of time on the trampoline and learning the off-axis 180s. Learn this move first on the tramp and then take it to the water...

HS/BS OA 360
1. The root of this move for most people is an indy glide. When you're in the indy glide position after takeoff, turn the handle down and keep advancing yourself on the rope. By turning the handle down you will force the spin and pass...

TS/BS Off-Axis 360
1. Try rolling this move together more after the first pull instead of doing it in two parts. Continue the pull through the 180 so you will move to 360. If you pull and then try to pull again you may get hung up at the end of the move...

HS/FS Off-Axis 360
1. There are actually two ways you can do this move. One is by going all the way to 540 and then shifting back, and the other is just committing to a 360 off the wake. I would opt for the latter first...

Surface FS 360
1. After you accomplish the surface 360 right in the middle, try it moving across the back of the boat so you get more of the sensation you would feel when trying it in the air wake to wake...

Slob
1. Slob is like grabbing indy, but you have to do it by grabbing more toward the middle of the board from around the outside of your front leg. 2. This type of grab will help some riders with their first 360s because it makes them wait and set their axis...

The Correct Way

The key to doing big, controlled toeside 360s, either frontside or backside, is riding all the way up through the top of the wake with both hands on the handle, standing tall and remaining on edge...

Rider: Tony Bazile

Level: Intermediate





Take a pretty mellow cut for a toeside 3. With a good progressive edge, go all the way through the wake. Once you're up, give a slight tug of the handle to your back hip, and then lead the rotation with your head turning toward the boat, and then over your shoulder...

Learn a Toeside Blind 360



MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE FLASH 4 PLAYER



Rider: Colin Wright

Level: Advanced





Take a fairly mellow cut at the wake, edging well, but not digging in too hard...

It is easiest to learn this trick wake to wake, so begin with a narrow progressive approach on your heelside edge. After leaving the wake, start your rotation by aggressively pulling the handle with your lead hand through the small of your back and then pushing your wrist to your far hip...

Frontside 360s are actually easier to learn than the backside version, especially for someone with a strong frontside 180, because it's a more natural rotation. However, you still want to learn this trick wake to wake as well...
