You have to do progression kind of thing. You dont throw them forward at all. You cork them backwards. As in, if you spin leftm think of throwing your left sholder back and down a bit, but while spinning.

drop your shoulder and rotate you hips, just shoulders won't do it. its easier on skis b/c you just carve hella wide and spin. hella easy

thats cuz ur on a tramp. skiing u'll have more air time so there is more time for gravity to sort your shit out.

I know what you mean. And you can cork 7 on a tramp just as easy as on skis. It is a tad different, but not anymore difficult.

The progression thing for cork 7's, you can spin a 3 to your back. Do that a bunch. The try and spin 90 degrees further. Then further... and further... You just have to get the image in your head of doing it and try super hard as to understand what you are exactly doing and how you are doing it. It's tough to explain. I learnt it on my own watching videos and just trying so hard on tramp. You just have to give er'.

you have too look over your sholder, the way your spining, and then throw your body where you are looking, then while in the air try to spot your landing. if you huck too hard you might get thrown into a D spin

I've done that a few times, kinda fun actually when you go into the d spin if you don't land on your face. I think the best way to do it is to get quite a bit of speed, and then carve as you are coming up the lip, you hardly even have the throw a spin, just drop the shoulder of the direction you spin and turn you hips with it and you'll get it.

It sounds like your throwing it forward like a bio or misty. If you tryed to figure out cork 7's by looking at ski vids, you probably got tricked as to thinking you throw your right arm across and down. You don't, that just kind of happens on the lip when you are actually on snow.

On tramp you throw it with your left sholder, back a tad and do a 7.

And man, its fucking ridiculously hard to cork 3 and 5 on a tramp. Don't try and learn that on tramp. It's too hard. You won't do it. Just learn cork 7's. That's all you need. For cork 3's and 5's, those are a completely different trick then a cork 7.

A cork 7 is thrown completely differently. Just learn cork 7's on your tramp. Leave cork 3's and 5's to the hill.

You have to leave cork 3's and 5's for the hill because the tricks are pure carving super hard off the lip. They are completely differnet then 7's.

Alright man do this:
Stand straight up with legs shoulder length apart. Take your right hand and touch the ouside of your left foot. now thats the motion you wanna huck with your shoulders for the cork. jump stright up in the air on the tramp then huck that motion, you wont be able to land it at first, but you wont hurt yourself either. just huck it and commit with your shoulders to the spin, youll eventually unravel and stomp it

Alrihgt, here's a vid of me when I just first learnt them. I never even knew they were cork 7's. But after water ramps i discovered they were.

The first spin is the cork 7. I do them way differently know. I can cork it less and such if i want to. The sencond spin is like a crappy bio 5.
