I'm having alittle trouble throwing corks on my tramp. I'm getting the cork but, its turing into a inverted back halfway through the cork. I guess its turning into a inverted bio or something. Anyone have any pointers??

yes, yes it was. the key is to not try, because if you are really hucking, it wont work out right, remember to keep looking too

that was the most simple way to explain cork spins. thanks a bunch...now when it comes back to landing any advice...is it just bring your right shoulder back up?

try not to throw it down so much, try doing a safety and bringing your legs in to set the cork

it's hard to explain, really you just need to keep trying it or trying to do it differently cause when you get it you'll know, it feels nothing like any flip you've ever done, mostly cause it's not a flip

set the rotation slower, and it pretty much the same way as a bigger cork, try to grab safety maybe

can u cork it by droppin your left shoulder?(on a left spin) cause i was tryin 360 inside safety and kept reacing down rather than bringin my legs to my hands and was doin some sorta funky off axis spin.

its more like driving ur right shoulder around that really sets ur spin...its more of a experimentation system for learning corks, so good luck

set spin, drop shoulder, spin out and get ur feet back under u, if u spin, u will almost definetly get ur feet under u, unless ur just fallin back and spinning

if you go into a backflip then it sounds like a dspin

hey headskier i have the same problem as you, i can throw up to cork 10's but no 5's or 3's....As for corks, just keep trying and one day you will get it, just try and set you spin normally, and when you bounce off the tramp think about bouncing back a little and getting your legs out in front of you...

and the reason ur cork turns too inverted is cuz theres a blind spot at 360 where u are looking straight up at the sky so u try to look straight back to see the landing. just be patient

Do what they said, then when it comes to landing, you have to spot and bring your feet back under you. no matter what you will come back on axis, but to really land clean you have to see your landing come in and then adapt and get yourself on balance
