just like he said ^

once you are familiar with the rotation and how to throw it you just need to sack up and go for it

how do you throw a cork? im not sure if you throw your shoulder oppoiste the spin down, kind of like a front flip... or if you just twist and throw your opposite shulder towards your ankles...

drop a shoulder coming off the lip, or carve hardcore into it.

its all aboult letting your weight fall back. if you carve off the lip and let you rotation fall back towards the lip a little youll be able to get more and more corked every time... when i learned corks i threw a leading mute or leading blunt, this taught me to dip into my carve. good luck...

depends if your trying to cork 3/5, or cork 7. They're both completely different concepts.

it takes a while to perfect, aka sometimees you go into d-spins and rodeos, but you drop the same shoulder as the side you're spinning. tramps are really the best way to practice.
