find the smallest jump in the world and huck like hell and 360 it. Then once u have a quick spin dialed go to the second smallest jump in the world and try and step it up

just go bigger, or just throw it harder on the same jump you can throw 3s on. when you are around at 360, spot your landing while rotating the extra 180 the whole time.

rotate 180 degrees more. Then land on your feat, and ski out of it without snowplowing.

skiing is just another way to please yourself without the mess.

to do a 5 you should do more than a 3

The thing that helped me learn fives was to actually visualize doing 1.5 rotations and to visualize landing facing back at the takeoff. First time I did that, I stomped it. Don't be frugal with your airtime either, the bigger you go, the better chance you'll land it.

just keep your head as far over your shoulder as possible until you can see yourself facing the jump

If this helps you, guy i know. Looks like he hucks like hell off of the jump. I found that with me 3's, you have to huck right off of the lip, cause if you go too soon you don't get as much rotation.
