i want to try one and i was wondering if i should learn to do the heelside frontside 360 by just jumping half the wake and then move on to w2w watcha think?

why wouldnt you just go w2w?

W2W sucks if you go off axis. It's always good to start small. Do it.

Just hit the wake with kind of a mellow edge and spin the 180 and grab the handle and you're around. Don't try to do it early or you'll faceplant.

let me walk you through a 360... you come in on a set edge (ts or HS, regular or switch) you pop off the wake, spin 360 degrees (roughly; sometimes more, sometimes less) Then you land it.

I would learn to do handal passes by doing a bunch of surface 360s on a knee board then try it wake2wake on a wakeboard. Just remember to start your spin at the highst part of your jump and be sure to do the handle pass. if you pass the handle your board should come around.
