Well not speaking from personal experience, but I watched my friend try to teach another friend. He said you have to try and cheat it off the wake and just have really quick hands and rip the thing around. |

i've heard some of the pro's remove their fins just so that they can slide out the rotation if they don't get all the way around when working on big spins |

Also it's not a spin type move like the 540, you get around by passing the handle....you stop passing the handle you stop spinning.... keep passing you keep spinning....you need to pull real hard on the first pass also so you don't get behind the handle and get pulled off axis.... The 540 falls into place naturally even if you don't pass the handle to the back hand before you land, specially on the BS spins...
If that makes any sense...
Hard trick good luck bro..... _________________ PEACE

Hey, Props to you for even trying to land a 720. Spins are harder than inverts _________________ "Our common welfare as wakeboarders shall come first, placing principles ahead of personalities......" |

yes, the key is to think 540 and after you get that think blind 180, that will help you stomp it more, also spin off axis, you spin faster |

try it off the double up first. that should give you plenty of height. also, you do spin a lot faster off axis, and it looks better that way. but it would be nice to be able to do it on axis also. |
