-----Spins.... correct me if I'm wrong-----

ok, so I just wanted to try to clear somethings up, please correct me if I'm wrong.
SO assuming that you spin everything to the left.... this is all going to go counter clock wise
Straight foward is a front
down/fowards and to the left: misty
over the should and left: unnatty licoln
under the shoulder and down and to the left: cork
over the shoulder and to the left: d-spin
back: backflip
down under teh shoulder to the right: flat spin
over the shoulder and to the right: rodeo
spinning to the left while dropping your right shoulder and bringing your left one up: BIO!
Staright over to the right: lincoln
Fowards and to the right: unnatty misty
The difference between Bios and corks... corks the head can rotate in all different positions, while the body can be at different axis's, while not going over the head. If your feet go over your head its a d-spin. A bio is when your head leads the spin... ie, the head is facing downhill while the skis spin uphill.
It may look liek people are doing corks fowards becasue they are pushing their head and body down and to the right, and their body isn't off the ground yet, making it look foward. If will end up in a totally different rotation if you spin it foward, your feet will come over your head, instead of the other way around

Ok here i go.
Cork, throwing under your sholder for a mellow backwards tilt, rolling this over will make it a dspin.
Dspin, Throwing over your left shoulder so you come almost strait over with whatever spin, coming straight over would make it back full, full half, exetra
Flat Spin, Carving into the jump you lean into your carve and spin with the momentum carving created, making you spin in a half backflip half regular rotation on a flat axis.
Bio, Exact same thing as cork, just forwards, rolling it over would be a misty
Misty, Throwing forwards and upwards you do somthing of the axis of strait front, same as a forwards dspin
rodeo, Throwing so you tilt you head back towards your left or right shoulder, you end up flipping like you would a licoln.

^ exactlly. A flat spin 5 will almost look like a lincoln loop 180, but you never go inverted, if u were looking at it from the top it would look like a dougnut roll thing

also i'm pretty sure that a bio and cork are way different. I'm not sure why people always get these mixed up. But a bio is when your head is down hill, and a cork your skis are downhill. It doesn't matter how you throw it off a jump... I don't know, is it just me, or whats the deal. From my experience a bio is done how i described it above, and i think that ppl are confused and think that if they see someone try an off axis spin that looks like their arms are going foward but their body head stays uphill then its an automatic 'bio'

it doesnt matter how you throw it on the ground, its the way your spinning in the air tha tmakes the tricks. for example, you can either throw your left shoulder down and backwards to cork, or throw your right shoulder down and forwards, and itll bring you around to cork. bio is cork wiht head down hill.

So normally when you spin your legs/skis will lead the way, and be pointing down hill... in the case of a bio your head is going to be pointing downhill
