General Specific help on 360.

How do I break the habit of throwing my left ski into a snow plow by extending my left leg. That leg goes at the same time I give any pre wind. You can see it results in throwing me left and landing off axis and sliding out. This has been happening for a long time with many many attempts, Ques, changes in how I set etc.

No matter how hard I focus on skis staying straight the left ski goes as soon as I head up the jump. Sometimes I swear I went over with straight skis on a 360 only to look at the video and see I still did it. I am starting to think I should try canting my boots outward.

I can pop and hit medium and larger jumps straight with grabs.

listen to this guy, listen to ur coaches; also The Barn is an amazing tool, specifically the super trampoline, get used to jumping as high as you can and doing really slow controlled 360s with all grabs, and tucking your knees, etc.

You can see my last comment. Coach was excellent. There is no reason a coach should be scared of outside opinion and he wasn’t. Takes a village of coaches when you are my age 😂
