Hit a decent sized jump, like 25-30, and just commit and throw it harder than you think you need too. I found going from switch 3 to 5/7 is alot different way of spinning.

just how you spin normal, once you get to the lip you start spinnin and even out in the air...

i believe for a smoother switch spin, wait until you've popped off the lip to start spinning. when you try to spin too early you may catch an edge or just plain lose your balance

first u have to learn how to carve switch really good, and i look over my left shoulder and spin left, so i usually do 2 or so carves into the jump and then do a switch carve off the jump, its alot easier to spin switch is u are on edge and not coming into the table straight, thats way u can wind up and throw harder, and u waont catch ur tips on the take off
