Today i tried doing some cork 7s and i can land them well now. But now when I do normal 7s and 9s (not cork or anything) i end up going corked. Does this happen to anyone else? Any tips to help this?
 
yea I had a ton of trouble with that. what helps me when that started to happen was not grabbing and if you grab bring sour skis really high up
 
I think a lot of people have trouble with this. Focus on like starting the spin as flat (on axis) as you can. Cause lots of times you just flow with the lip (like you are corking) with out even realizing it.
 
can't wait for the day I'm trying to fine tune my 9's and cork 7's. Am serious, not trying to be a smart-ass. Props yo
 
Your probably just getting a little steeze lean going on. But for you to go corked your droping a shoulder somewhere. Its either in your set or once your in the air.

For your set, make sure you attact the jump. Remember even though you're spinning you have to counter the kick of the jump by getting your weight forward on the take-off. If you get lazy and let your feet ride a little bit up on you you'll go corked. Also in your set, if you throw your spin and your arms aren't thrown level it will make you dip. So try not to drop your hands on the set, and throw across your body.

Once your in the air mainly just make sure you don't dip your shoulder on one side. This happends lots when you get into your spin. Make sure you look across your body this will keep your shoulders straight and square which will prevent you from corking.

If you have footage, I can tell you where exactly and how your going into the cork, just pm me with the web addy
