So first of all you want to know your speed for the jump. You don't want to go straight in with a spin because you could hurt yourself and you want to know the speed so you can land on the down spot and ride away perfectly. First of all you want to ride in, if you're regular, a little bit on your heel edge.

Not too much so just that you have a little groove on the kicker and you know where you're going off. The spin is generated from your core muscles and your shoulders. So as you come up you keep your feet parallel to your shoulders.

And you enter the jump, you're looking in the air as you turn you want to bring up your legs with you and as you get to about 270 degrees, which is about here in the spin, you want to be looking at your landing, coming down and compressing to make sure you have a lot of balance in your landing. Because if you are standing up too straight you're going to lose your balance and fall over onto your heel and onto your toe edge. So you want to keep very compact in the air, very compact in the landing.

The most important things about this are the entry to the jump, the spin, then the landing. You want to deconstruct it. So you enter, turn, that's your entry position, a little bit on your heel edge.

Looking upwards to the tip of the kicker like you want to be at a certain point just above the jump. In the air, so you're turning you bring your shoulders along with your hips, bring up your legs and landing which is very similar to the entry. Keep very low and keep looking towards where you want to be and you ride out.

And that's how you do a front slide 360. .
