Spotting the target and not the direction your going in should help.

And use your arms to get a bit more heigh, not just to spin.
But is close man ;)

Spot the target twice, and stop overcheating the setup. You're doing like a backside 720. Do it like a 720 double, with the stall and everything, but without the first kick.

throw arms up to get height and put your arms to the chest and spin fast. And if you want to kick higher, you should bend your right knee to your butt and you'll kick higher (at least works for me)
cool:smile:
cheers for the advice guys. i'll try the double spotting method but will this slow down my spin?
also how should i take off? i thought that you cheat 180 degrees during the take off for pop tricks. e.g spin 540 degrees in the air for pop 720

You should spin around 540 degrees in the air in a pop 720, but you're not haha. It will slow down your spin a little bit, but the spin isn't improtant. The move is.

It's only my opinion, but i strongly think that a pop720 with a complete 720 spin look a lot better

If you spin 720 degrees, it wouldn't be a 720 but more like a BS 1080. Not completely though, it'd be 90 degrees from a BS 10.

I you don't cheat 180° in the set up and you spin 720, you'll get a nice pop 720:eh:
I don't like when we cheat pop tricks:ogre:

z0mg, nonsense.
720 = 720 degrees no more or less.

Dude, you're rotating 540 degrees in the air on your own p720? Check out these pics.

If I'm wrong, please explain me how I'm wrong, because I simply can't see how there's 720 degrees of airborne rotation in a pop 720!
