If you do the mogul tech just go up plant your pole out in front of you unload and turn your head and that is all you need to do simple way to learn after you get better you dont need to use the pole to set up.

I'm still working on these since I don't see terrain parks very often.

Find a little kicker/table you are really comfortable jumping on. This stuff is way easier when you aren't scared. Lose poles if they get in the way, you don't need them for your first few tries.

So anyway, head towards that jump at whatever speed works. When you are close, start twisting your body whichever way you want to spin. Hips, torso, arms, neck, head. By the time you get to the edge of the jump, you should almost be looking backwards. Pop off the lift, and keep looking around. You will be spinning, and after about 200-250 degrees you should see the landing if you neck is still twisted.

Keep looking at that landing, and let the rest of your body untwist and come around. If you time it right, you should have enough time to bend your knees a little bit, and stomp the landing.


If you crash the first try, you will probably realize it doesn't hurt much and be even more pumped to go at it again.

If you land on your ass like I do, it means you aren't popping hard enough or at the right time. Keep trying.

I learned on a small table on a warm day so the snow was soft. I got a bit more speed every time, so the first couple times i was goin a bit slow and would lank like 270 and catch an edge and fall. That helped me build my confidence and made me realize i wasnt gonna get hurt. But coming up to the jump make sure you are wound up and your upper body is twisted and your knees are bent. When you hit the jump, whip your upper body around and pop off the jump and turn your head over your shoulder and watch behind you. The key part in this is keeping your head looking behind you until you spot the landing, if you start to turn it back in front of you, you will stop spinning and fall. once you spot the landing, just keep your eyes on it and your skis will stop right where you need them. Then you go for the 540...

lean back as much as you can and make your bindings are as low as they go, hit the biggest table there is on an icy day with no helmet

When on the in-run to a jump, it doesn't look very good to load up for your spin by winding up your arms and stuff (called 'racer wrap'). Also DON'T pencil out your spins! it looks gayer than a picnic basket. Just throw a safety grab and trust the spin. You'll fall a few times, but that's what releasable bindings are for.

seriously, there ismty much people can say that you hyavent heard before. all there is to a 3 is to go for it. if you are going to over rotate, just shift your hips and land at 5. its not that much harder. the easiest thing to do is to take it big. its natural to want to stay small when learning a new trick to not want to, but you will be better off

keeep knees bent, relaxed postiton, when winding up, dont block yourself, just point one forward and the other back, the power comes form your hips, dont worry about popping, and just focus on making it around and landing forward. Other then that.... dont try it on a kicker, try it off of a small soft table.. it will be easier for you.

come in with speed, look at the lip. When you get close to the lip put your left arm a little forward and your right arm behind(if you spin left). Dont start your rotation too soon, just wait and when your feet are close to the lip pop and turn your arms and shoulder and head. It looks better if you pull your legs up to your cheast and it doesnt slow your spin down and you have better control.
Most important, dont start your spin too early, the faster you go the more easy it is. i had a little troubles to do 3´s cause I always wanted to turn my shoulders too early but now I can do them easily.
You dont need a large jump.
