How do it
A 540-degree rotation. Only attempt it after you've mastered the heelside frontside 360.
1.
Execute a wide, light, progressive edge. It's important to jump off in such a manner as to avoid a strong pull during the flight.
2.
During the approach, try to evenly push down with both legs. Have your arms positioned to give yourself enough leeway to pull up.
3.
Once you push off, pause until you've gained enough altitude, and only then begin to rotate.
4.
Pull up the handle to your back hip, thus providing momentum for the spin, and begin turning, with your head facing in the direction of rotation.
5.
As soon as you've brought the handle up to your hip, release your leading hand and immediately bring it behind your back, to catch the handle as early as possible.
6.
Once you have swapped hands, continue rotation until you reach one and a half revolutions and the nose of your board is facing portside.
7.
When going down, slightly pull the line behind your back, as you will be landing in toeside switch.
