today in my park they opened up 2 solid jumps after 3 runs id nailed 360's on both 540's on both and was ready for the 7. got everything down packed, rotation sweet, low wide stance, angle sweet. then both attempts landed back seat and bottomed out because of the landing. im not sure how to change what im doing when to decide to lean suppper far forward? +k for help. thanks heaps.

if you land backseat, lean forward. you shouldnt have to make a thread to figure that out.

Hate to break it to you, but he's right. Usually when you land backseat on bigger spins it means that you are concentrating too hard on setting the spin, rather than popping up and FORWARD off of the takeoff. Why do you think you could stomp your 3's? Because it's a smaller spin that takes less wind-up and concentration. The reasoning behind popping forward is that you will have an easier time matching the transition of the landing. Therefore, work on popping forward off the lip, and you should be stomping the 7's more often.
