I have done a slighty corked 5 before, As soon as I hit the jump I looked at the take off and threw my shoulder down, I landed but almost ate shit, this year I want to learn a corked 7 but I don't want to fuck up and get hurt, could I get some advice from the more experienced ones on how to do them? Oh and how big should I go? i did the cork 5 off about a 20 ft table.

Before you try the 7 why don't work on the 5 first, keep trying you'll land one eventually

because a 7 is a lot easier then a 5.... just go in confident, picture your self doing it in your mind, and commit

THE POWER IS YOURS

Our world is in peril. Gaia, the Spirit of the Earth, can no longer stand the terrible destruction plagueing our planet. She sends five magic rings to five special young people: Kwame, from Africa, with the power of Earth. From North America, Wheeler, with the power of Fire. From Eastern Europe, Linka, with the power of Wind. From Asia, Gi, with the power of Water. And from South America, Ma-Ti, with the power of Heart. When the five powers combine, they summon Earth's greatest champion, Captain Planet!

I'd go to a backcountry kicker, and huck myself and get the 7 around.

bring your right arm across your body towards your hip. and look at the ground behind you- keep looking.
Commit to the trick and I GUARANTEE you'll hit it. work on doing slightly corked 7's then just cork em to your satisfaction. (it's all about progression)
Good Luck... COMMIT COMMIT COMMIT

nobodies ever done a corked spin, thats crazy talk.


sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.
