How to 360 on Skis | an Intermediate Skiers Progression

In this ski tutorial, I teach Nico how to 360 on skis during his second Stomp It Camp. We start out warming up by practicing how to pop, how to 180, and 360 while standing still. Then we put the skis on and show you how to jump on skis followed by some 180s and 360s. Along the way we see some common mistakes skiers do when attempting 360s. Come here and learn together with us at our Freestyle, Freeride or Technique Camps: stompittutorials.com/camps/

YES. MORE INTERMEDIATE GUIDES! There is always a void of content between beginner guides and advanced guides. I would love tutorials on all trick names on jumps, rails, and flat as well. There are literally NO VIDEOES on such. Keep up the good work 🔥🔥👌

[@andrewthompson5184]

Another brilliant video, I’d also really enjoy more of these ‘intermediate guides’.

[@ojl5055]

THIS SO MUCH! I have always wanted to learn more but there are no tutorials on stuff like this and it is hard to do on your own

[@jacobnelson1831]

I love these style of videos where you teach someone how to do a trick . Definitely should do more in the future

[@iNoobishh]

PLEASE!! This is what we need and can learn the most of👍

[@StompItTutorials]

Thanks! Will do!

[@rox2537]

These are the most helpful videos imo, it really helps show how to fix common mistakes! love the videos :)

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad to hear it!

[@kingbb3227]

great to see people my levels succeed! it gives me more motivation to be the same!! great detailed video from 🇨🇦

[@StompItTutorials]

Stoked to hear that. Have a nice winter in Canada:)

[@nadakidd]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="90">1:30</a> I've never seen this explanation of why not to overwind before. Makes sense and I know I've been guilty of this. Can't wait to see if this is a mistake I need to work on. Thanks again Jens 👍

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@StompItTutorials]

I like the term you just coined. Overwind. I might start using it if I may?

[@nadakidd]

@@StompItTutorials of course 👍. Just promise to do a lap with me if I'm ever out your way (I live in the US and am trying to move to Utah so I can ski regularly) 😀.

[@Slope_Surface]

That’s exactly what I needed! Thanks a lot for guides! Hello from Russia ;-) 🇷🇺

Great I am happy to hear that :)

I'm gonna try a 3 tomorrow😄

[@remarkablysquare3216]

Ever since your beginner box slide and jump progression videos I've been waiting for some trick progression videos and here it is! Super high quality, amazing content as always. You guys are the undisputed king of freestyle ski tutorials on KZbin!

[@StompItTutorials]

Wow thank you very much :) We will try to keep it up :)

[@barbosajoaobarbosa]

Really useful video, its way eaasier for us on this side to see someone learning, doing the some mistakes we are doing, and you correcting it. Keep the good work, and more videos like this. Cheers from Portugal, aiming to go on a freestyle camp next year.

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad it was helpful! :D

[@choski76]

The instant feedback video teaching is the most effective. The student can see his work and have positive impact and instant correction. So many instructors try to talk so much they will make you better. Great job. Best instruction technique possible.

[@E123poptart4me]

Landed my first 180 yesterday, keep the videos coming they make me wanna try new things everytime I ski

[@miloman812]

I really like how brutally honest you are, and you don’t do it in vein, there’s always a helpful tip that follows. You are a great teacher, I feel like I’ve learned a lot from this channel. One of the best pieces of advice I’ve noticed helps the most it keeping the head up, especially in a 360. Even just jumping with socks and shoes on, it makes a world of difference. What I’ll need to focus on the most is what I do with my arms. I noticed he never fully got it down with the arm movement, but I understand how much it helps with momentum and keeping balance.

[@tyr4507]

This video is fantastic. I'm an intermediate skier looking to get into doing some spins this year and watching another person around the same skill level learn these tricks is very encouraging.

[@davidnunes1765]

PLEASE more vidoes like this! Great stuff!

[@ljshoreslokal]

Awesome video! I'm 45 and my 3 kids all ski so now I've transitioned from snowboarding to skiing and love your video's. I have my kids watch your "how to carve" videos too. I'm working on skiing backwards and doing spins in hopes to start doing jumping 180's and eventually 360's like in this video. I hope to have 360's down solid by the end of this ski season by using your video's and tips. Great content, thank you from Washington State, USA.

[@StompItTutorials]

That is awesome! I feel like I have to go and try skiing around your neighbourhood some time, seems great.

[@chrisoffersen]

Mammut should know that your videos introduced me to the existence of their outdoor clothing line, and gave me confidence in giving them a try. Their stuff is really impressive! So, thank you! (Also, thank you for showing me how to carve:)

[@danv1336]

I loved how you went through the whole process and correcting mistakes. Keep up the great videos

[@chizz76z]

These kind of videos are the best content to learn from! Jens’s calm and collected style of explaining things makes it seem so, so easy and safe to try, when I find myself in front of a jump, I can’t help but remember the way he teaches us how to approach it. Last year I would fall on the smallest jump. This year I’ve did my first line involving a jump and a slide on an abandoned house front porch to an 1.5m drop. Thank you for your great content man! Much respect from Romania!

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad you like them! Have a great winter and say hello to Dracula from me.

[@chizz76z]

Watching from Mammoth, great technique, great work, keep it up !! Very clean ways to help an entry level 360. Good Job to Nico.

[@R4wF4ce]

This was great! Lots of detail and how to correct mistakes people trying to do this the first time are likely to make, but not so much that it's tedious. Fantastic. Now I just need more snow and free time...

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mocha2259]

Nice vid! I plan on learning 180s and maybe throwing a 360 next time I go up

[@StompItTutorials]

Sounds good!

[@weirdbeard1980]

Good progression. I definitely like teaching and focusing on the T set. All preference in coaching styles but I've always had good results with that. You mentioned that in the video without saying it by name.

[@StompItTutorials]

Yea normal skiers dont know what T-set means when under time pressure I try to avoid technical terms.

[@flobbar]

👍 nice

[@IheartBass]

I'm finally sending it today at the hill. I can do a 180 with my eyes closed, but I'm overthinking the 3 I think. I'm intimidated. Hoping I don't die and end my ski season early 😂 great video, man!

[@FlyfishApex]

Amazing video! Can you teach someone how to do a 540 next?

[@lukehotty257]

Please do more like this with a student

[@mattjpg6550]

Hoping to come to one of your camps early 2023

[@StompItTutorials]

See you then Matt :)

[@Robbiesrk]

Great stuff here! Maybe you've made a video but do you recommend learning anything in the park to do it on a center mounted ski? Even if trying to progress that into more freeride directional skiing with tricks?

[@StompItTutorials]

I never ride center mounted nor do i recommend it. I do often recommend to mount infront of the recommended mark. I typically ride minus 1-2.5cm from true center on freestyle skis depending on the shape of the ski.

[@kwiki1988]

Nice videos there ! :) Are you jumping with tops of boots opened ? As shown at popping while now moving (at 0 speed with no skies). Thanks a lot ! :)

[@nasdrio]

great video i ll try it too! great channel. would be great to join you in person!

[@robw7856]

That Helly Hansen suit is sick

[@mattibu9016]

I love your content and how it really motivates to learn new skills. But perhaps on this one it would be good to specify how long was the learning process, how many tries etc. From the video it looks everything was done in a day, from attempting the first 180 to closing a 360. It is possible the student was a particularly talented one but that is not the case for most people.

[@lukesupertramp1928]

Ohh shit that sidejump at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="206">3:26</a> killed me 😂

[@mjfaak]

Hi!! I got a pair of K2 Reckoner which are mounted -4 from true center. Do I think I will still manage to learn the 360 technique or it's better to have some center-mounted skis? Yes I know pretty weird question 🤣 Thank you

[@elschkot6911]

I really would love to have a trainer as well that can teaches me how to do it

[@michaelshawe]

How does a dancer do a 360 degree spin? Head, shoulder, hips all stacked vertically. Not preloading one leg. Similar to your description to not over winding up pre jumps The other thing I found helpful was using the Samuel head / eye positions a dancer uses in a turn, keep your head ahead for as long as you can on launch and the. Whip head around to point back ahead and downslope again. Time your arms coming in with that whip around of the head to accelerate the turn.

[@calduds1023]

Can you do a how to slide a tube/rail on skis vid

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank you for the suggestion. We will do it for you ;)

[@benm8763]

Can you do this easier with nice twin tips? It’s hard for me to do 180s because I have just standard skis (Rossignol exp 77) and I sometimes clip/lose speed trying to learn to ski switch or land a 180. I’m very open to the idea of selling my current skis and renting twin tips the next season and buying them the season after once I’m out of high school

[@deanester]

Which ski would you recommend for beginner skiers? (atomic)

[@MartinE0594]

Stupid question, but should I learn to reverse beforehand, or does it come naturally?

[@katrinawood6786]

You should do a video on freestyle for ski racers. We ski racers are very good at skiing, in a lot of ways, but often very awkward and terrible when we try freestyle maneuvers. I always tried to goof around in the park sometimes, and for the longest time I could not do a 360. Then I got the hang of it, then one day I tried a 360 (after doing some successfully albeit not gracefully at all); underrotated, and tore my ACL (was wearing race boots and my sister's race slalom skis with high DIN setting which was not ideal). I have not skied, let alone tried any jumps since. I just tried skiing again for the first time yesterday, really enjoyed it, and I would like to be able to finish where I left off, this time without injury. Back then not nearly as much instruction available on youtube. Been really enjoying these videos, and anohter thing that is really foreign to me is the idea of the "pop". In racing we are taught to do the opposite of a pop (e.g., in downhill and speed events) because air is slow. To get air I always thought you just let the jump take you up, never thought you were supposed to actually JUMP, LOL! No wonder I have had so many painful backseat landings.

[@steven7650]

As a gymnast and ballroom dancer. You go where you look. Your head's center of mass at the end of your body dictates where you go by the direction in which you look. Practice 360's on land then flat snow keeping your eyes up. The next step is waiting to turn your head last. Wr learn this to not get dizzy and keep orientation while rotating in a moving frame. To the take-off challenges in gymnastics that's calling setting. You set UP then rotate. You cannot do both. Many beginners try to initiate rotation on the ground and it ends badly. Same technique to practice; on flat ground practice setting up before you begin to rotate. Once you can keep your eyes up that is.

[@Fredh11]

I can 180 very well but never feel like I’m high enough to 360. You recommend doing this with top bindings loose??
