huge wined ups lead to hucked style and out of control spins.

^ I agree. Try doing throwing a misty by just turning your head with your hands tied behind your back.

I think that if ur wind is smooth, and not too bog and is at the same pace as your spin it looks good. Like doing a nice big 3 and using ur wind to grab ur ski safety or japan... or something
