360thread the others don't help me

I listen to the other threads even on other sites but its always mixed info

some say carve your wheel before you spin

some say its all in the head and shoulders

if it is all the shoulders, tell me do i 100% HAVE to carve that much?

if its all in the carve, how do i keep level, i always get my bike to start tabletopping when i lean and im closer to doing a barrel roll then doing a 360

if you can do a flatland 360, tell me EVERY SINGLE DETAIL of how you do a 360 please...

Just try and keep the bike level, look which way you want to spin, and just do it. I just learned bunnyhop 3s, and you just have to carve, hop and turn your head like a Mof...

YOU CAN DO IT! Just go faster.

Just turn your head and shoulders, and practice, try then off a box jump or fair sized tabletop, becuase then you only have to focus on making the spin not clearing anything, that will make it easier for learning the spin.

And as far as 180's i think that they are easier on flat ground, thats how i learned them...

i think what that bmx bandit guy was doing was a rock walk or an old school version of it, looked as good as a 360 (for the bmx layman)

i think u should try a 360 tailtap on flat first. just do a 180 hop and keep your front up and pivot the other 180 on your back wheel. go really slow at first. should take about 1 week to learn.
