Tips & Tricks with Jussi Oksanen: Backside 360

[LANDIN4DEWIN]

I cant spin front but back seems so natural for me :D

[mitchF430]

when i skate i can't spin backside but when i snowboard i can only spin backside

[mjbArthers]

without doubt the best how to's on snowboarding on Youtube. You guys really clear things out :)

[skltf]

i like backflip but i cant do it lol

frontside 180s are easier than backside 180s because you can keep your eyes on the landing the whole time. with a backside 180 you have to turn your head up the mountain.

backside 360s are easier than frontside 360s because you can spot your landing during the last 180 of your rotation. on frontside 360s you are facing away from the landing on the last 180 of your rotation

[thomaskimura]

How many spins have you been doing? I agree that all makes sense, but spinning just has to do with what you are comfortable with.

[nickl1221]

what the fuck is with the snowboarders? good damn

[Sierrascoperida24]

@nickl1221 your a cock you skier!!!!

[gigahead]

i find frontsides easier for some reason

[atysays]

Yes, I'm the same way. I'm a goofy rider and frontside 360s are easier for me too.

[D3rarsch]

sure, but not at all

backsides are easier to spin because is just so for every snowboarder(goofy or regular). no exceptions^^

frontsides are easier to land because you see the landing earlier.

I am regular and i think frontside 180's are easier than backside ones but backside 360's are easier than frontside ones

[Harry7995]

Lets get some things straight, there is a big exception which is it varies from person to person. Actually most goofy riders prefer backside and regular prefer frontside (same spin direction which would make sense). When talking about frontside 3s, the landing is harder because it is blind to you and you only see it the first 90 deg of rotation

[D3rarsch]

hmm sorry okay i had confused backside with frontside which landing is blind and which not.

I but I think It is the same way for goofy or regular cause if you snowboard the opposite you also turn the opposite better.

[hhoh12]

i hate to break it to you but a regular rider and a goofy rider doing backside 3s go in opposite directions.... (regular back 3 = clockwise, goofy back 3 = counterclockwise)

backside means that in your first 90 your back is facing forward i.e. downhill

so most of the time both goofy and regular riders find backside 3s easier to learn because you see the landing for the last half of the trick

[Harry7995]

Im said reg front 3 is the same rotation at goofy back 3.

[woxta]

i like bs 180 and fs 360 more, dunno why

[D3rarsch]

yeah.. it's also different. i heard of it that bs are easier to spin than fs. either you like more to spin easier or to spot the landing. depends on people. some think spin is easier the other spot the landing. i think this is it why everybody says bs or fs are easier. I think you can't say that cause It really really depends on everbodies Mind or however you say that. sorry i'm usually not talking english but

Just try yourself and form your own opinion.

[gmanandcssforever]

i sure its because you can spot youre landing easier

[xXGEN3000KBMXx]

@gigahead Backside looks better though...most of the time.

[Bennonjamin]

I love this trick- but it HAS to be done over a big enough kicker.. :)

this is faaar better than expertvillage :D

[Aquarius30]

indeed, expertvillage sucks, this one and methodv are the best

[Hekezus]

I love this trick! :) I got it okay from small kickers but have problems with bigger ones. I seem to be landing it on my nose. Any hints? I uploaded a video of one attempt I crashed.

[sawtell13]

yeah, dont land on your nose, you should be fine then.

[lovepeacenothate]

@Hekezus i saw your video, try not to lean on your front foot as much when you take off.

[neatejonathan]

its hard to do but, when you land look straight ahead to where want to ride to becuase most people will look down at there board when they land and end up washing out and not stomping it.

[shinvin1212]

is it harder to do backside 360 or frontside 360 ?

[baztiaan1]

frontside 360s are harder because you can't really see where you are landing

[aceofhearts157]

i learned 2 do a fs first

[ryanmackay9]

its not any harder it depends which way you feel more comfortable spinning with

[saw1292]

it all depends, for me fs are easier, cuz i find i always cork my bs, but yeah its differant for all ppl

[MerMorr]

I have problem with landing this trick. Sometimes i land on my back (lol) when i have rotated the 360 or very, very much on the heel and then I lean very VERY much at the back... :( somebody please help

[TrevaBoarder]

these are the best tutorials on the net!

[Lex3M]

tnx for explaining all the tricks... all ive done so far is a frontside 360 and that felt good. Gonna try some more when i get back to the snow

[54spiritedwill54]

favorite trick

[judedudekajo]

thats a frontside 360

[bfishy22]

no its not retard

[Lex3M]

u stupid or what?

[flyingledzeppelin]

hey dont you learn front 3's first because i learned how to do front 1's frist any one hit me back and explain

[maxhossfeld]

bs 360 is easier than fs 360 because you can see your landing.

[raahr]

I dunno, feeling your landing is also pretty important. I learn fs first. Besides it was funner.

[magestik6973]

i learned back 3s first but later i realized that front 3s off ur heals are ridiculously easy to just pop off the ground

[zackiepooo]

i learned back 1s first

[hiya52]

i just wish when i try this that i don't get destroyed

[HshredThegnarP]

you wont you can land 270 and ride away.

[kingz12345]

Hmm unless an edge is caught, which would probably happen unless you have massive calf muscles...

[HshredThegnarP]

how did you reply when i didnt comment on this video?

[HshredThegnarP]

nvm, it diddnt show up intill i clicked view all comments, anyway he is probally takling about a small jump wich you can land 270 and still ride away but on a 35 and up kicker you defenetly going to have to land staight.

[kingz12345]

yeah true

[WTFallgoodnamestaken]

i just sorta carve into it, like when i do them on a skate...

u sorta scoop it so u turn faster

[fozziebear32]

can anyone help me out, someone who can really stomp threes please, my spin is fine, i'm pretty sure my take off is sound, but i always land backseat, on my tail and alot of the time spin out down the tranny, i'm thinking i'm not popping enough off my tail, anyone with some advice?

[sledgehammer6y]

when you get on a jump, try to do a kanda half-moon so your rotation is gonna be easyer to do, and more stylish, and than you will be able to grab it.

[jurekqwerty]

you have to do something like a "bow" on a kicker - than rotation starts.

[evanemac]

no k carve into the jump not hard just a little on ur toes the harder u carve the harder it is to judge ur speed and u might not make it go u on ur toes and turn you shoulder the way u are spinning and use ur head and shoulders to continue ur spin it may be scary but it works a lot better and is easier to step it up to bigger spins because you already have the basics down

[bdoddx13]

alright brah everybody thats said something has shit that will help. gettin on your toes a lil will help huge and obviously spin more with your upper body and hip. those dangling shits that we call legs will follow. newton's 31 law says so. but seriously try addin a grad and maybe favor the front binding with it and the shift of body wieght can help level you out. but if you over do it your fuckedd. test grabs with out the spin so u get the feel of the movements. plus you will look way better

[nathanMTB]

lol i love how everyone became experts

[jockofthebush]

here's a helpful tip, rotate your upperbody for the first 180 and then all you'll have to do is twist the board around for the last 180 because ur body will already be in the landing position.

[Th3SMS]

I just came from snowboarding, and I got the comitment to do a boardslide. This will be next on the list :)

[TheMainEvent2430]

lol same here except i just got the boardslide down now im on the the 360

[vivalabamerfett]

is backside 360 easyer than frontside 360?

[jhunter81387]

yeah because you open up to the landing where the frontside 3 is a blind landing

[jurekqwerty]

i think it depends. I prefer backside, but my brother front side

[ShreddinThaGnar]

honestly i think front 3's are much easier, the landing may be blind, but getting the spin is much easier because you can carve into it a bit more

[hayd03100130]

i think you can carve more on a back 360

[steezyyy]

i can do that

[juukame]

ive been trying a frontside 3 for 3 days now still can't get it, i keep doin 270s

[flapjackproductions]

try going faster. or shave a little off the lip when you take off and shave off less and less as you get more comfortable.

[jurekqwerty]

HAHA i've broken leg doing 360 :P 11 weeks in plaster :P

[cbclp382]

frontflip 180... worst 6-8 weeks of my life

[RM125RIDA]

im still takin the switch bs 540

[imgonnatryonce]

favorite trick

[jessesony0]

hah, first time i tried it i spun a 270 after cathing my edge on the lip and nailed the edge of the landing with my chest

[plfddoom]

ahhh i remember my first attempts at the back 3. didn't fully commit and elbowed my self in the gut, stunned the shit out of me

[philbotnic]

great vides...but show a normal speed and slow motion jump at the ned to piece it all together. Thanks for the great tips though

[emagone]
