don't listen to any of these fuckheads. Cork 7 is definately the easiest cork, not cork 5. i basically learned them when i was trying to do a misty but then didnt commit so my head wouldnt go inverted
then i changed the way i did them... watch the way jon olson does them, he does a text book cork... basically the way i do them is go up to the jump (you can carve or not, really doesnt matter, just makes it look sickter) then right when you go off if your spinning left like a normal person drop your left shoulder a tad... i dont even think about dropping my shoulder anymore, it will come naturally, but the key is spinning off and throwing the spin down towards your tails of your skis... and actually look at your tails and you will just automatically cork...
I would recommend doing a cork 7 off about a 40 foot table with not a lot of kick to start, then you'll get comfortable with them. Just saying this because there fucked when you do them off a jump with tonnes of kick cause the kick can sometimes throw you off and you WILL go inverted.
anyway good luck, if you take the advice i give you and giv'r you should be doing them in no time.
