Decent 360 How-to?

So how do you do a decent 360 off a medium jump?
The problem is mine always end up penciled and strait up, plus Im tall so it looks worse...So I CAN do penciled 3s + sketchy at that, and I can do consistent and grabbed 180s. But every time I try to grab my 360s or try to bring my legs up I get all messed in the air and it feels like I don't have enough rotation. Nobodys ever told me at all how to do anything but a penciled style 360.
Any tips?? thanks

huck with your hips more than your arms and when you take off, keep your feet wider tahn you normally do.

I huck pretty hard off the lip but I always naturally stand straight up and I can never bend my knees or grab AT all without getting messed up...

if you want a smoother 360, go off a bigger jump. More air time

Imagine a table on that you need to clear. That forces you to bring up your legs, making it easier to grab.

would it be harder to land on a 40 ft table than a 20 ft table?
