Cork 5's

[jfletcher]

So I tried 3 of these last saturday and I couldn't seem to land it. The first half of the trick is good but something just goes wrong and I can't uncork. This is the first of my attempts.

if anyone has any suggestions they'd be appreciated

you need to cork more in the first 270, that will bring back to your feet at 5

to your comment: yeah that one was pretty slow, but I see what you mean, I nick to huck it a little harder on a jump that smaller. I just couldn't get that feeling of my feet falling out of the sky

Right on the money. One way to do this is to throw a leading hand uncrossed tailgrab, because the motion of reaching for it is about the amount of cork you need to add to your shoulders in the set.

stand up when you pull off a cork 5. standing up with your head up will give you the stance to be more energetic in the rotation. That you help you finish them

Also, in a cork 5 you should be able to see more horizon trough the 360, and you get a weird repositioning when you look behind you. Once you see the landing spin until you arrive switch...just give er a little more rotation. Another way of putting it, do a 540, but let you head follow your hips in the off axis movement.

that looked like you set your cork for a 7 and not 5, dip your shoulder a lil harder

maybe dip your shoulder a bit more to go more corked. that looked a bit like you were going for a cork seven.
