i tried a cork 7 this weekend and i set it really nice but kinda over rotated. at 7 i was still cork looking up at the sky and i landed at 9 on my face. any tips on what i did wrong and what i need to do
 
For me it helps to grab safety, or try and by doing so i drop my shoulder and bring my knee's to my chest, and thus cork.
 
ya sorry no video. and i dont feel like screwing up on it again just to get it on video
 
try and look back up. that tends to bring you out of cork. when you set you drop shoulder and look down. looking up should turn you the opposite way
 
just tried my first one this last weekend and i just dipped my shoulder spun and kinda "grabbed my knees" or brought them up i dont really know, but i successfully landed a cork seven and a cork 9 before i have even done an on axis 7. They are super easy imo, like easier than a three on the same jump.
 
can someone analyze my video?

What I do is carve into it super hard then drop my shoulder and bring my knees to my chest.

It comes right around.
 
what size jump did you try it on? cause i wana try one too but it seems all the jumps at my mountain (stevens pass) might be too big or two small to do one on.
 
andrew i road away from a sketchy 860ish to be fair, haha

and stevens kid i was randomly paroosing facebook today and ended up in a stevens park group, i have no idea why but those one jumps in the trees where theres like 2 or three in a row look beautiful to try them off of. the one we were learning on was like maybe 30 but probably like 25 or less, i dont really know ill try to find a pic of the jump somewhere....

couldnt find a pic but its pretty fucking shitty, haha
 
haha sounds good, ill probably try it soon as im back from this damn meniscis tear.

howd it go the first time? im just worried ill land on my head and get really fucked haha
 
first hit i road away, so did a friend. just dont hesitate at all and go for it and it will probably work out, i always wanted to try off axis and inverted things off pow jumps but just decided to try it on scary park ones and it worked out
