360 spin directions?

Someone posted on here that ollie 360's are easier than w2w, so I have started trying them. Which way am I suppose to be spinning? When I cut out in to the flats and do a surface 360 I spin towards the boat (opposite from what a fs w2w would be).

Obviously it can be done either way, but which is easiest?

Thanks! maybe I should work on spinning FS on my surface 360's, so if I don't make it all the way around on the ollie, I can finish it up on the water. I don't know why I started doing my surface 3's BS??? I ride goofy and I am right handed, so I guess I feel stronger at pulling the handle to my back with my right hand. It also gets me through the having my back to the boat early in the rotation before the rope starts to pull me.

Thanks for the info!
