How to

Step by step
  1. On a medium-to-steep slope, build more speed than you'd use for a Nollie 540.

    A 720 needs enough air for two full rotations, so come in noticeably faster.

  2. During the approach, wind your upper body against the spin direction.

    For a frontside rotation, wind your shoulder line slightly toward the toe edge and keep your eyes just ahead of you, loading up the return.

  3. Just before the pop, bend your front knee deep (around 100-110 degrees), then release the wind and lead with both shoulders into the spin.

    The spinning momentum is basically set the instant you leave the snow, so swing your torso and hips out together right here.

  4. As you unwind, press the nose (front-foot end) into the snow and snap off it.

    Extend your front ankle and knee while driving through the ball of your foot to send the pop straight up. Wrap both arms into the spin (frontside: throw the right arm first and tuck the left across your chest).

  5. The moment you leave the snow, pull both knees to your chest and hug both arms in front of you to make your body small.

    You can't add spin in the air, but the closer your limbs are to your body's axis, the faster you turn on the same momentum, so this is where you earn the speed for two rotations.

  6. Through the first rotation, keep hunting for the landing over your shoulder (spotting).

    When your eyes find the landing first, your body rotates to catch up, which steadies the spin.

  7. As the end of the second rotation comes into view, slowly open your tucked arms and knees.

    Growing larger slows the spin, so this brakes the rotation and lines you up.

  8. Land in a normal stance (facing the direction of travel), absorbing the impact by bending both knees evenly, and send your eyes toward the next line.

Tips & common mistakes

Tips

Land your Nollie 540 consistently first. If the rhythm of nose-pop, mid-air tuck, and open-to-stop isn't already automatic from the 540, the 720 will come up short on rotation.

COMMON MISTAKE

Comes up short, landing switch-ish → body stays extended in the air; knees and arms drift from the chest and the spin slows → right after takeoff, pull both knees to the chest and both arms in front hard.
