id liketo see a longer, more specific list of tricks you would learn before cork 3, you fucking idiot.

do a 3, go corked, land bolts.

I'm willing to bet nearly everyone in this thread has never actually done a cork 3... Just because you go a little off axis dosen't make it cork

just learned cork 3s by accident.... i threw my safety grab down to hard and i went wayyy of axis and spun the 3 around, but yeah in my opinion... its not a hard trick but whats hard is making it look good and smooth

I feel like I learn everything "out of order."  its not a big deal.  If you feel comfortable and can visualize the trick just go for it.  I learned cork 3s on accident actually.  I was trying them two years ago but could never really get the hang of it. Since then I learned practically every other cork.  When i tried hand drags on bigger jumps i would pussy out, not drag my hand and just do a cork 3 cause i already set. It worked out. Practiced a bit more and i learned cork 3. Whatever works for you is what counts
