Spine 360s might seem a little daunting at first. Yes, it can be scary landing back in the other transition. Make sure you’re comfortable with 360s in flyouts and on smaller ramps before you go for this one.
Tip: Use the left / right arrow keys
01
Approach the spine with a bit more speed than you’d need to just jump it straight. Hit it faster if you feel comfortable.
02
It can help if you carve up the ramp a little as opposed to just going straight up the ramp and spinning. This’ll send you across the spine instead of sending you to the flat bottom on the other side.
03
As you take off, start spinning as you would a normal 360. You should come around to 180 easily. Look over your inside shoulder and try and spot your landing.
04
You don’t want to pencil the 360, try and keep the bike level in the air. If you’re too upright in the spin you might land back wheel first and loop out.
