Help with corks

so i recently learned corks and i am now running into problems.

when i c other people do them they never actually go to inverted, but when i do them my head comes under my skiis and i am totally inverted at one point.

I have tried throwing less cork but then i dont get enough rotation around.

is there any tips or tricks to help me get these down? +K

"Alright this is one way and iv seen little girls learn it this way. I think i tought 20 people this trick this summer alone.1-

Start your day with a speed check (or 5 straight airs) on the jump you

want to hit. the last thing on you mind should be I'm i going to make

it to the landing. Every kid i've ever seen attempt a new trick hits

the jump slower than they should because they're apprehensive of the

trick, but you're ass has to at lest hit the tranny. Crashing or

sticking

2-Warm up your spins 1,3,5,7 even if your going to

do a 5 you need to know the safe exit of every trick. Ya your only

doing a cork 5 but what happens if you go a little to fast, to, big or

pop a little to hard for some reason.

3- Now here are the

steps you should follow. Once your feeling it, and only you will know,

start grabbing leading safety. DONT throw the grab down, DONT throw you

shoulder back, just pull your legs up and grab. Keep your head up, all

of this will not make you cork, its just a grab right.! WRONG! This

will add just a hair of cork, why you ask! Because now your little

balled up position is weighted on one side so it will drop on its own.

4-DON'T

freak out if you cant see the landing and brake your position. Once you

break form your position its all over. Just remember, if you cant see

the trick in your head your not going to see it go to your feet and

this is true for all tricks. no one likes skiing with a huck splat

5-Once

you have this its just a matter of finding the right amount of head

tilt to add. all your going to do is once you have left the jump and

are just about to get into the balled up grabbing position put you ear

on you shoulder. Don't slam it on there just drop it straight to the

side. Don't drop you head back, (dspin) or tuck you chin in. Its ear to

shoulder thats it.

THIS WILL MAKE YOU CORK SO BE CAREFUL

CCCR

CONTROL-you self

COMMIT-to a trick or you will get hurt

CONFIDENCE-this stuff works you've seen it in movies

RELAX for dame sake this is going to be funThats how id do it"

 
yah, this happens to me to, on the tramp. i think making a grab thats infront of your body woud help...?

yah that prob sounded stupid
 
yea i hope that helps after reading that ive been doing it all wrong. i guess ive been trying to do a d-spin or something of that nature
 
deffinetly a sick guide! ya throwing em on tramps is pretty easy and its easy to go more inverted too.. but throwing a grab almost makes the trick so much easier and better looking, your in a nice compact shape and its easier to spin and stomp i think.
 
For some reason i can do cork 7's on the tramp but i do them spinning to my right. When it comes to skiing i spin to my left though an i have tried cork 7's to my left an it felt awkward but right at the same time. Anyone else have this problem
