O/a 5 easiest than o/a3. Back off on your edge when you rise up the wake. Your edge through the wake will determine how fast you will spin, so edge with less intensity than you might think. As you rise up the wake, push the handle down into your hip and turn your head in the direction that you are spinning. Keep your momentum moving, pull the handle into the small of your back and finish with the handle pass. Now that you've finished your 360, you should be able to spot your landing.

On your edge, do you try to cut away from the boat a little at the top of the wake? kind of like a backroll?

yeah i try do do it , but i intend to over rotate and when i land on the board i struggle with holding my balance becouse i have so much momentum in them..

-Yes Justin, but not so off like r2r, just lil middle. And cut with medium intense, like normal w2w jump.

Take a look here, there were a few of us discussing the finer points to an OA 3.
