you defiitely ned tailwhip catches down. if you dont have them one hundred percent, dont try three sixty whips, get catches first. then try 180 whip catches, and gradually move on to 360 whip catches. best advice i can give you: get whip catches down, then get three sixtys down real well to. after that its all up to you and how motivated you are to learn the trick.

My problem is that I catch it one footed and then I land after only 180 rotations pretty sketch one footed landing. Then I get pissed
 
i have whip catches 100% down. and they look good too. Also, i can 360 fast as shit. i can get the 720 rotation, but i land sideways (only tried 720's like 5 times) should i get 180 catches flat or off a kicker? sometimes i do 360 dubs on accident. idk how the f--- that works, but it just does. cuz i cant catch it when i come around to 270. so i just land.

just go off the ramp or wahtever your doing it off, start spinning and tailwhip at the same time, catch the whip by feel, and keep looking over your shoulder. if you look down at the deck youll spin slower and probably wont make teh 360, so focus on the spin, not the tailwhip
 
i try 2 do da whip befoe or at when i spin 180 and then it gives u time to concentrate more on da spin at da end and dont pay much attention to da whip i learnt them a few weeks ago and the only thing i was doing wrong was not getting the rotation so u need 2 concentrate on da 360 more than da whip if u wanna land it
 
all you do is go up the ramp keep practisin 360 flyouts since you've got 360s pretty dialled [you say] get some air on a flyout when you get to the 180 position [nothing sus] whip and keep spinning catch the deck and ride away. Also maybe a bit of info if you spin fast slow it down and let it come naturally to you.
 
3 ways to 360 tailwhip

-Slow whip with the 360
-Whip with an earily catch
-360 lateish whip

I personally like doing slow 360 whips because I don't see people doing them like that often so I like to try to be original. Doing them on stuff that you can get a good ammount of air on helps ALOT. I can't 360whip flat but I can do them off banks and kickers no problem.

I'm making a "360 tailwhips attempt" video and putting it on youtube so you can tell me what I'm doing wrong, hopefully this will help "Derek [FS]" too!
