I taught 3's to a friend on Saturday who had the same problem and with him a lot of it had to do with spotting your landing early. If you can see the landing coming then typically your body can correct itself to match the pitch of your landing.

Approach - Takeoff - Maneuver- Landing

Your takeoff is probably the place that needs work. You need to set and pop properly. Bigger jumps don't need much of a wind-up for 3s so just work on getting the pop and then the rotation will be right there

Pressure on inside edges help too, assuming ur not carving. Also don’t set the spin too hard.. just float a bunch of em out and you’ll get it

You are backseat on your take off. Just do more until they get better.

MaimHelpSo I have been skiing for a few years and I learned 3s this year. I'm real consistent with them on smaller features. But when I try them on bigger features or I just try and go faster I always seem to be thrown off axis and I land hella backseat. What should I do to improve???
Just do it pussy

MaimHelpI don't have a video at the moment but it is not because I'm afraid. I find myself almost getting messed up on my pop and spin.


So, what do u mean by smaller features, sidehits? Cant say whats wrong without a video. Check out stomp it tutorials on youtube for a full tutorial for the 360. Figure out what you're doing wrong and how to fix it with the help of that video

MaimHelpSide hits and smaller park jumps but as soon as I go to park jumps with a gap bigger than 5 feet or so I just can't seem to 3 as well


Oh man, hucked 3s from sidehits are really different than the ones thrown off a good kicker. Check out the Stomp it tutorials channel on youtube, the 360 tutorial goes very in-depth about it
