How to do a 360 Spin Wakesurfing? A Beginner Guide to your first 360.

[@parker6711]

Props to all the boat drivers out there for being patient while we learn new tricks!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Right on Parker, if the boat riders did not pick us around 100 times we would never learn any new Tricks! Have a Great Summer!

[@robertho1770]

Hey that was a great video and I really appreciate you sharing your experience and especially your pains in achieving the 360. I have a hard time spinning around and will definitely try you two hand scoop and paddle. Thanks a lot!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Robert Ho let me know if it helps and if not give me any advise to help new people get it after you do get it!

[@pwizzy22]

Great video, awesome tips all the way throughout, thank you! Thanks for showing that a few larger guys (like myself) can also master it in time!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

You will get it, it just takes a crap load of fall's before you do! Good Luck and keep surfing!

[@bradysheahan5336]

took me 1 weekend! thank you!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

+Brady Sheahan great job Brady love to see that video if you have it!

[@bradysheahan5336]

How should I post it?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

+Brady Sheahan download the KZbin app to your phone and upload the video. Then post the link.

[@Ohp880]

Great video!! I went to the lake today and was trying the 360. Didn't come close to getting it. I wish I had watched your video BEFORE going out. We had awesome water and several bodies in the boat made for a great wake. I cant wait to go out again and try your paddle method!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Ohp880 Record your First 360 and upload it Def. want to see it! I'm working on another couple of video's for 720's and other such tricks

[@danielbassett3341]

After I get a 360 I'm going to try jumping the wake. I've also been working on crossing over. I'm getting close to getting that.

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Daniel Bassett advise on that is slow the boat down to like 9.8 and remove a lot of the ballast, make a really small wave, then do it a couple of times with the rope, timing is important as well as 90% of the weight on your back leg, back leg should be in the middle of the board and front leg needs to have your foot close to the edge that the wave is near. so pretty much move your heel closer to the edge of the board .

[@Ohp880]

I was watching this video thinking “write that’s a really good video!” I guess I watched it five years ago. I still haven’t gotten my 360. I was out for a while. Now back at it. I’ll get it soon.

[@Ohp880]

@@danielbassett3341 well I was trying the crossover and tore my ACL and MCL. No more wakeboarding for me. Just surfing!!

[@WarDamnATL]

Awesome tips! I have to try it out this weekend.

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Best of Luck! Just Keep trying until you get it! Never give up!

[@davidj9977]

best 360 video... thanks for making it.

[@stevedean7973]

Can't wait to try. Good instruction. Hopefully I can post my own video.

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Steve Dean I would love to see it if you get it post a link if you get it recorded, best of luck!

[@michaelsroadster]

This video is fire once it starts playing my Fair Lady in the background music! Seriously though good tutorial.

[@joshlewis5065]

One thing I do, is keep a lot of weight on my back foot because a lot of times the nose or side catches and stops the spin and I fall. I have the spin part down, i just had too little of a wake. Also i had to fight the reaction of standing up instead of trusting the spin and the board. I am so close tho

[@benbhand]

What board are you using--CWB Tsunami I'm guessing? Awesome video, brah. I've been looking for a video like this for a long long time. After at least 100+ attempts, a successful '3 continues to elude me, but I'm hoping your paddle technique does the trick. Can't wait to get out there and try it!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Ben Bhand Let me know how it works for you, i have had people try it 5 times and do it and others do it 150 trys with no luck, after doing it more riding switch and building up that other leg muscle Def. helps. Don't give up you will get it just try 10 times each time you go on the water and then quit you will get it!

[@JohnSmith-rx2nd]

Extremely helpful! Thanks so Much :)

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Good luck doing the 360!

[@brandonlaskos]

Hey man, great video! My friends and I are SO CLOSE, I think Ken of us will get it any day now. Can you elaborate a little more on the foot pressure as far as when you spin, when your 180 and then to return back?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Glad you guys are "SO CLOSE", it's almost worst at the point because not getting the 360 at the point is almost painful and it will keep you up at night thinking about it! LoL! As far as the Foot pressure you have two options option one is keep your balance at 50% on each foot and just go for a really Fast spin and recover, AKA Paddle after Spin . Option 2: a Bit trickier but will look really cool. You can split the 360 in to two 180's and slow the spin down. in this case you want to put about 60% on the back foot and 40% of the front foot, the really hard part is switching the weight as you spin, so as you riding Switch you will sill need 60% on you backfoot. and the back to regular switch the weight again. Keep this in mind when you try, Stay Low, Stay Centered over the middle of the board, and after the spin, Paddle or lean forward or anything it takes to no Drop back in that wave. What often times happens is you are confused where you are on the wave and by the time you realize where you are it's to late to recover. Upload a video of your attempts and i can try to give you some more Tips! Best of luck you guys will get it!

[@floydage1]

Are there skegs on the board? If so are they small or regular size?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Interesting I had to google search Skegs just to make sure they were what I though they are, I usually call them fin's, But to answer your question they are very small they did come stock with the board, but if you have a bigger board or "skegs" they will be a bit longer and it will help with Carving, When you want to do Tricks you want smaller fin's. Best of luck out on the Water!

[@floydage1]

Thanks! My fins (skegs) are pretty big so that might explain why I am having trouble getting around on a 360. This is a huge help. Thanks Again!

[@TJHanby]

cool vid...thanks for the tips

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Tim Hanby i'm learning 720's now so much fun!

[@jacksonkendrick943]

I have the scoop down and land it bu always fall, any tips

[@Reviewoutlaw]

If you have a Video, i can give you more advise, but here is what to try, before you do your 360 go really far back in the wave and work on coming back in from the far back of the wave 4-5 times, really low on the board, in a squat position. If you are falling it prob means you are standing to tall and are not balance over the center of the board. You could try to put one hand on the board for extra balance and keep it on the board for the entire 360. Best of Luck you will get it with time and a Crap Load of Falls!

[@jacksonkendrick943]

I consider myself a expert rider having shuvs and airs and frontside airs down (I am hoping to get sponsored soon, I say that to express my skill level). What I looked at this video for was for seeing how to do it in one solid motion, I usually one-eighty and then finish out and I know all the basic stuff like pumping back in the wave, do u have tips for doing it in one solid motion?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

That's pretty Sweet, I'm working on my Pop Shuv-it's my Self so I know how hard that can be. Def. Record your 360 in Slow-Mo so you can break down where you are failing. If you want to do it in one motion you need to keep your body weight 50% / 50% where if you break it in to 180's you are shifting your body weight. Also you need a Bigger Scoop of Water when you come in from the back of the Wave, Really Attack the back of the boat with speed and HUGE Scoop. I like the look of the 180 and then another 180 it's slower so people can see what you are doing, But it's fun to mix it up! Keep on Surfing!

[@aidann74]

What kind of board would you recommend because I have a 07 inland surfer and it is 2 stable to pull a 360 on

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Aidan Neill well surfers are going to be much harder than a skim style, one with a fin in front and fin and back would be best, short fins, inland surfer makes a bunch of different boards which is yours?

[@joeurbanski34]

Just curious why don't u pump to recover?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

That is also another way to recover the only issue with that is it's a bit more advanced because you will normally stand tall when you are pumping to recover and often by the time you are standing tall and starting to pump back you have already lost the wave. Also Paddling helps you to stop over rotating which is very common for first learning the 360. Have a Great Summer Surfing!

[@DaneTechSuccess]

sick vid!

[@mackprendergast203]

so i got past 360s a while ago do you have any advice on shuvits

[@Reviewoutlaw]

I'm working on the same thing so if you find a good video please post it there is not to much on shuvits or Airs on Wakesurfing and they are really Vague when i do watch them they are like " just bring your legs up high and jump" not really helpful if you find a good video please post it! Keep on Surfing!

[@mackprendergast203]

thanks man ill make sure to do that i feel the same way about the videos that are out there

[@rileydreger2827]

How do u like that atlas i have the same board and i love it

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Riley Dreger I love it as well just did a 720 on it, could not get back in the wave but still felt Great!

[@waterskijake]

So I've got a tall and long wave and when I do a 360, I spin into the top of the wave. (Nautique 2010 with ballasts and fat sacks full)

[@Reviewoutlaw]

It's tough to say with out seeing it, if you have time take a phone and record you trying it in slow-mo if the phone has it and upload to KZbin and paste the link. Otherwise it could be where you are spinning on the wave, maybe to far away, try to stay perfectly centered over the middle of the board you could be leaning over your board to much. Best of luck you will get it!!!!

[@waterskijake]

+Review Outlaw thanks, I'll post a video as soon as I can

[@Reviewoutlaw]

[@thehouse]

Nice

[@Reviewoutlaw]

The House You got some nice Videos to Man, Love Snowboard and Wakeboard and pretty much anything with a Board

[@EricHart1]

What speed do you drive for your 360's?

[@Reviewoutlaw]

+Eric Hart Good Question! I've done them at 9.6 , 10.6 and 11mph it is a very hard question a lot depends on that boat and how it is weighted and how big or long the wave is. If you have a video of you trying one i can give you more advice. but here is my suggestion, try it at a slow , medium and fast. and record all three then look at the video in slow-mo and do 10 more at the best speed you did. you want the wave to be nice and long because you will drift back a lot after you spin, you want a super fast spin so you want to start back in the wave and get speed going forward then one clean motion spin and paddle to stop yourself from over rotating. Best of Luck keep trying and you will get it!

[@chrisluders9592]

Took me 3 tries

[@kendlol2764]

For some reason I keep over spinning and ending up doing a 540 and keep ending up on the other side please help

[@Reviewoutlaw]

This is a very common problem when first learning, the good part is you have the spinning parts down which takes a while to get. The fact you are doing a 540 means you need to not spin as hard as you are , and if you are ending up on the other side you might need to stay lower on the board and keep your shoulders level when you spin. If you have a video of your attempts that would help me narrow down the issue faster. Best of luck keep trying them you will get it!

[@kendlol2764]

+Review Outlaw went right after I commented that I am very happy to tell you that I am not ending up on otherwise nor over rotating I am just not staying in the wake I have videos which I will post when I get better connection

[@kendlol2764]

+Kend Lol other side*

[@kendlol2764]

+Review Outlaw I went for 3 hours of non stop trying and still did not stay in the wake which kinda got me mad lol it was really frustrating

[@Reviewoutlaw]

+Kend Lol you are so close! Is I'm sure what you are hearing it drives you nuts! After you get the spin down its hard to see where you are because often water goes in your eye any by the time you do see you are so far back on the wave it's impossible to recover. I recommend you start paddling as soon as you spin. By "paddling" it puts your body in a forward lean and will add more weight on ur front foot. Upload a video of ur attempts of you have time. Best of luck!

[@elipottebaum6600]

Do you have fins on that board

[@Reviewoutlaw]

Yes i have Fin's but they are shallow not long, this will allow me to spin easier but it will be harder to stop spining after i have completed the 360. Some people can surf with out fin's like Austin Keen it's really hard though!

[@mackprendergast203]

or airs

[@tristendunn5877]

One fin

[@roderickaldridge9917]

Filling all baller dosent make a wave bigger

[@LukeHale18]

It worked! Check out my most recent video!

[@Reviewoutlaw]

***** Love IT! Best Feeling EVER! To do it, So Cool You got it on Video. Let me know if you get any big Air still working on that, Also working on 720's
