I have 3's and 5's down like cake and I have Blunt grabs down but whenever I try to combine the two together, shit hits the fan and my gear ends up spread all over the landing. How do you keep the spin relatively on axis or only a little corked and come out of it straight? I tend to cork and then keep corking and land on the back tips of my skis and frankly, im sick of hurting my ass every time!

Any simple tips would be greatly appreciated!!!!

leading or trailing blunt?

trailing i can normally just grab it in the right spot blindly, so i can focus on my spin. try that if you havent

leading spin and spot like you would normally, and try to grab blunt from your peripherials.

idk, its hard to tell how to do it. keep trying and you will figure it out, then it comes pretty easily after that
 
sounds like you're going for the grab even before you go off the lip. think about the spin first then get the grab half way through the spin.

i only start by grab once i get to 180. (depending on the jump)
 
remember to keep your head up and set like you normally would, it sounds like you are concentrating too much on the grab and may mess up your rotation because you are forgetting the basic form. Try spinning first with your skis crossed and in the approximate position where they would be on a blunt grab and then once that feels comfortable go for the grab.

also a vid could help people figure out what exactly is going wrong.
 
Practice the shit out of blunt grabs until you can do them with out looking at your skis. Then you'll be able to grab while keeping your head looking over your shoulder for your spin.
 
make sure your not popping early. have a bit of patience and let your skis come up to you for the grab instead of trying to reach down for them. spotting uphill at 180 should also help you out.
 
normally you just arn't popping enough at the lip. if you pop and maybe don't huck as hard until you begin to get it.
