theres a section on www.unicycle.2ya.com with some tips on 360s...ill
copy and paste it here for ya
360's
If youre doing the 360s with a rolling hop, its best to start out be
turning a sharp 90 right before the hop. You only have to hop 270 and it
gives you the feel for turning completely and riding out in the same
direction. Once you can do this pretty smoothly, you can start to
actually try to get the extra 90 degrees in. Also if you watch Dan
Heaton and Dan Doerkson do them, their arms make a funny movement above
their heads... hard to explain, but if you see it you know what I mean.

I find that the biggest reason why people can do 180s, but not 360s, is
because its really easy to just pivot 180 really quickly. Like you can
jump, and pretty much just twist your legs and spin 180. But for 360,
your whole body has to go rather than just the lower body. So it takes a
lot more flow from the body and twist in the upper body. Very hard to
explain. I find a 360 is a trick that will just come to you one day.
Thats what happened to me.

i hope andrew doesn't mind me quoting his webpage like this. i found
those pointers from kevin pretty helpful -- right now i can get about
300 degrees. almost there 🙂
