pretty simple solution, just go cork earlier. In a cork 5 you should go cork pretty much from the start of the rotation.

you basically just have to buy yourself the extra skill you need to do it. go out and buy some ozone shit,  matching crowbars, some fks binders, and some thalls and youll be spinning more than just cork 5's in no time.

are you throwing your cork off of the jump, or trying to spin then go cork...

I haven't done it, but from what I hear, you carve off the lip and put pressure on your left foot if you are spinning left.

dude when i did my first cork 5 i was attempting a carving cork 3. i kept trying cork 3s but i wasent going sidways enough. so when i finally decided to stop being a pussy and really go cork i went way sidways and ended up throughing a cork 5. the best way i can explain it is; right as you leave the lip start youre spin and really lean into it but not so much that you go inverted. think of your body facing almost strait down at 180 and then keep looking. hope this helps .... good luck

i know its repetitive but really exaggerate throwing/dropping your shoulder (which ever way you're dipping)

i just learned them too in soft snow, but i still gotta get way more consistent before i get enough confidence to throw it in the park
