First 360

Landed my first 360 today first time trying it. I just really thought about pulling the handle to my back hip like everyone says and sure enough it was there when I went to grab it and then bam I landed it. Good note to end the day on. Didn't get as much pop off it but that can come in time.

Thanks guys......... I don't know maybe I got lucky we will see

Hopefully I can land some more

If I'm going to grab should I grab before or after the spin? or either or just whatever works for me?

I like to grab before the spin because you already let go with one hand, just yank with both hands, take one hand off and grab then get the handle and spin the rest.

Might wanna try a ts 3 also, if handle passes are that easy for you then a ts 3 will be cake

cws105, nice job, i did the same, landed my first try but it was really sketchy.

ts 360 is an easy roatation, it's just waiting for the second 180 and landing over your toes.

I can honestly say that cws105 did pull it off his first time, he tried to wrap it and couldnt cut back so he was like screw it and pulled out. it was nuts

if ur wantin to throw a grab in do it before. that way the spins easier considerin u already have one hand off.

That's really sick man! Keep it up! On my 3's attempt I ALWAYS bust out, and these falls hurt big time, so getting it on your first try is a godsend!

took me 50+ tries to land the 3 with a ton of falls. Of coarse i tried it way to soon, and before i could even do a ollie 180. But anyway, congrats man.
