I can spin a 3 really easy but I can’t go any further no matter how high I go. Any tips for spinning faster?

im willing to bet that you just are opening up at about 270 and naturally just spotting your landing. just keep your head turned and your body will follow

um its not a matter of spinning faster, its a matter of commiting to the spin. To go more then a 3 just keep your head turning till you can see the jump then you know you got around that extra bit.

If it is an issue of a small jump and not enough time to spin then I suggest throwing your arms the way you spin then as you take off pulling them in really tight and pushing them the way that you want to spin.

It might have more to do with continuing to turn your head and shoulders than spinning speed. If you don't keep the spin going with you head and shoulders you'll just be spinning your 3's faster.

Once you come off the lip and have set your spin immediately find your landing for your 3. As soon as you identify that, continue looking over your shoulder and find the lip of the kicker behind you. This should add the extra 180 in order to do a 5.

Yeah it is just about commiting to the spin, some people can spin flat 5's but could probobly have trouble spinning 7's off 40ft. tables.
