carve the way you want to spin/ pop / drop your shuoulder and let your feet come up with the rotation. feels pretty weird first couple of times but then you the hang of it. do whatever gra you want man.

Throw it like ur throwin a cork 90. Just drop your shoulder back and down and it will come around.

doing them on tramp is hard, its easier on skis. come into the jump (carve a little if you feel comfortable with it) drop your inside shoulder alot and grap with your inner hand (it makes it easier). when setting the spin make sure the inside arm is lower than the outer one and look at the inside skis tails.

^No, look at your landing, if your looking at the skis it might be more corked but you will eat shit.

`^^yeah but i meant for setting the spin not when i the air, then you have to spot your landing like anyother trick.

really what you should do is build a really fat jump into powder to learn, carving being the key to it. come in low and CARVE, drop your leading sholder and often times a leader safty helps bring it around, but critical and saftey will work as well.

I would just practice on the tramp, thats what I did, but I still can't huck one on the snow, so maybe tramp doesn't help.

good idea, cause then you can eat shit in the pow, and it wont hurt as bad

I find you just have to really drop your left shoulder back if you are spinning left, and just kind of flow around that way and look at the ground, at 180 you should be looking down at the table, and then it kind of just comes around.

one things that helps me to throw them is visualizing the fluidity, that does help the rotation and helps to come out of the cork

A true tail is the easiest for me to add, and in my opinion looks the coolest. However, if you are landing backseat, I would suggest critical or mute.
