If someone could embed the the link that would be super helpful

Thanks man, been skiing for a while but only decided (got the balls) to start trying some tricks this year. Your video for the 360 was super helpful. Once I can start stomping those consistently with grabs I'm definitely gonna give this another watch.

I don't do 7s that often because the jumps at my mountain are small but all I do is throw a little harder and keep looking over my shoulder, also they're easier on bigger jumps because you will have more time to spot your landing and open up in the air to prepare to land. Also you can easily just huck a pencil 7 on very small jumps if you would rather do that

A 720 is actually going to be very different. You have to focus on throwing two 360's and you usually have to put a lot more energy into it
