[INTERACTIVE_SLIDESHOW]"Doing a 360 unnatural is exactly the same as doing it natural, so don't panic. Throw this the same way you would if it were your natural direction.

1. Approach the cliff with your weight forward and centered.

2. On the takeoff, don't rush the trick or you'll over-rotate

3—5. Set your spin, reach down, and hold that grab for as long as possible.

6. Spot your landing and prepare your landing gear.

7—8. Stomp that landing and know you're the man.
