No matter what I do, I can’t rotate enough to get a full 360 spin. Any tips other than the obvious being “just turn more”? New to riding so something obvious to you probably won’t be to me. Thanks in advance!

I’m trying 3s as well, so this may all be bull shit. I watched the video at no moment do you spin your head to face the direction you want for the 360, it’s like you do a 180 and then decide, `ah it’s not working, I’ll just land`. Very smooth, I reckon you are close.
It’s been said before and it’ll be said again, where your looks the body will follow.
As you fly out you turn your head correctly, but as you spot the landing for the 180 you just keep locked onto that 180 landing so you only do a 180. You probably need to throw the spin a bit faster too but that comes with throwing the head faster.
I personally found it easier to learn 360s flat and found that learning 270s on a hipped flat bank was what got me turning my head properly to look for the landing.
You aren’t turning your head. You have enough air to pull it off you just simply aren’t turning your head, you’re eyeing your landing the wrong way probably because you were a bit nervous and rightfully so, it’s scary learning 360s but the answer is very simple, turn your head the way that you’re spinning and keep it turned. The second you quit turning your head is the second you quit spinning. Try on flat ground without your bike, jump up and do a 360 without turning your head and see how hard it is to spin.
