How to spin on bigger jumps

[keke9]

Hey, I'm from Norway so I guess all of you don't understand what I write, so I might aswell write in English. It's no problem if you answer in Swedish.
I have a really hard time getting my 540 and 720 executed. I can do a 360 standing still on the ground, but when I hit jumps that are like 3-6m my rotation goes like 2-3 times slower than usual. I have no idea why it is like this, haven't really figured out if it's something with the way I move my body in the air. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make my rotation faster and how I should lift off the jump to make my body rotate faster in the air. I haven't got a trampoline at home, so it's really hard to practice 720 and so on here, atm. I'm just trying to spin 540 and 720 on the ground to get some feeling, but it's really hard.

I have the same problem, I can spin on the ground but not when i go for the kickers..

I think that the secret is to pop out from the jump...

Ta i lika hårt som när du snurrar i små hopp. Fortsätt titta runt axeln.

After talking with my friends that see me spin, they say I have my arms stretched out in the air. I guess this is something I should work on, as I understand it slows down my rotation quite a bit.

heihei, jeg hadde litt det samme problemet når jeg først startet å kjøre ski. men en ting jeg begynte med er å kjøre igang en knallhard rotasjon med armene - deretter må du få opp føttene, slik at du har mere kontroll når du begynner å få igang en rotasjon. Gå gjerne for en grab!! pm ved bedring av resultat

Precis som sivert-pro säger. Men kom ihåg att dra ihop armarna när du lämnar kicken

Yeah that's probably one of the main problems. When leaving the kick, pull urself together to increase the spin, don't flap with your arms and look around your shoulder to maintain the spin. It's much easier to hit a 720 in a bigjump, no need to stress and you can contentrate more on your style!

I'm gonna try to work on it, guess I should always try to touch my knees with me arms or something when I'm in the air. Hopefully it will help
