The move the 360 in surfboarding is an adaptation of the 360 trick that has been popularized in skateboarding. In skateboarding, the 360 can be used on street or vert ramps. On street it is a simple standing rotation on the board one full turn. On vert it is one full turn in the air. In surfboarding, a 360 is a full turn at the top the wave and then the surfboarder goes down the wave.

The basic manuver of a surfboarding 360 would be as the surfer approaches the wave and as they reach the crest, the boarder would do a full rotation and then ride back down. The 360 is a basic surfing trick and its a definite part of any professional surfer's repitoire. The trick shows the obvious relation between surfing and skateboarding.
