When should I throw my 3??

I get enough air to do 360s for sure and I was wondering when I am supposed to throw them off the wake, right off the wake? At the peak in the air? on my way down? It also seems really difficult for me to actually start the spin any tips on spining easier?

thanks

Get the pop first like you're doing a normal air, once you've set your axis on the way up, pull the handle WITH BOTH HANDS toward your butt (if you're regular footed, you'd pull the handle to and around your right hip first - to do a frontside 3). Once you initated the rotations let go with your left hand and reach around and complete the handle pass.

DO NOT SPIN OFF THE WAKE

ive heard to let go with the front hand when pulling the rope to your back/butt to initiate spin, why pull the rope with both hands?

Pop, Pull, Pass.

wait for the pop, STAND TALL, then initiate the spin--i dont do any of the pull the rope with both hands stuff...... if you learn it with out doing that you will be grabbing your spins wayy faster.... anyway another thing that helped me get my 3's dialed is i roll my wrist over so that the top of my hand is toward my back (hope that makes sense) i also lean slightly over my chest when my back is facing the boat and continue to look over the shoulder i am spinning toward
i hope this helps!
