Once you drop your shoulder to set your rotation and go corked, how do you get uncorked?

it is a legit question dude^, srry i cant really help u cause ive never really done a cork on skis, but i know that if u set it right from the beginning it comes naturally around.

no its not a reasonable question. i dont mean to be rude, or offensive.. but honestly.. i think you have to be a bit challenged if you cant figure this one out. Go get anything, get a huck doll, action figure.. ANYTHING.. pretend your going off a jump with it.. and work out the rotation... what happend?



it COMES BACK TO ITS FEET! ... i dont get how this is not understandable.?

Check it out. When you are trying to cork hard(not just like drop your shoulder), you first need to be able to throw the rotation clean. I recommend 5's, since it's easy to visualize this trick. I find it super hard to cork without carving into a lip, but if you can, i guess you don't need to read this.

To cork, carve leftside, spin leftside, drop that shoulder, and as soon as you come around from your first 270 or so, find that landing and don't lose it, and you should come naturally back on axis. SHOULD is the key word here, because sometimes your body won't and you have to adjust your legs, which is why it's important to never lose that landing.

an easy way to throw one is being a lil backseat when u throw it. and when u spot ur landing lean a lil more forward then normal and u will land it clean

just keep looking at your landing youll come out. the softer you throw your rotation and should at the lip the faster youll come out trust me. they preach that shit at camp

You just have to practice... I know it sucks when people say that, but it's what you gotta do anyways. One day I was just trying to get a cork going on my trampoline and I just got the move! Once you get how to do them it's really easy.
