Ive seen the Yasotoko's do it a few times but they do it so fast I can't even see what they are doing. (Note. I don't plan on doing it anytime soon im not that good yet) But I was just wondering what they are and how to do them if anyone knows tell me

it doesn't really look that hard except for actually getting that much air.....just float out of the ramp...sideways......and at the top of your air all you do is kick your legs (like an ice skater, yes i watch it sometimes....but i did pick up some good pointers on spinning), spin the 1080 and land fakie.....

He lays out flat with his leg and arms out and then the force of pulling his limbs in is what pulls him around.
it looks like he spins with his legs. try it like this: the next time you go for a 540, start out with your legs spread, then cross them as you spin...should work out the same way.

when i was watchind david throw a california roll when he went into the spin he threw is legs and arm out and that slowed his rotation making it look like he was stalled in the air
