Eyes on spins?

When I throw my 1's I seem to just pivot my head and look down at the tips of my skis. I can do that fine, but find that I have trouble doing 3's and stuff because i am not looking out. Am doing the 1's right, or just i have my eyes up and looking out because that will help me on my bigger spins?

Look straight ahead, keep the head up right, spin the 3, spot the landing and ski of with a fist pump

maybe i wasn't clear, and thank you for being a dick. I can do 3's. what im asking is... if looking down at my skis when i land switch is wrong, because i am having trouble with my fives landing way too far forward, should i be looking out instead of at my skis when landing switch.

well you don't want your head to be bent down looking straight at the ground when you spin, you just glance at the groun to know where you are in the spin, you shouldn't even have to move your head half the time.


Me: So you like the big powder hits?

well in the first 270 of the 5, dont look down or you'll get off balance. after 270 you can look at the landing. i like to come out of the 270, then look at the knuckle and bring down my tails for the switch landing, it helps me keep my weight in a good place.

look with your eyes not with your head, not many peopel can keep there head up while looking down and spinning so pretty much just look up and youll be fine
