exactly when your almost done with your rotation put your hands in front of you and it should bring you forward, as akward as it looks once you do that you just get in the motion of landing forward and after you do that for a while you dont have to do it as much

If you start spinning 5s and then you try to go back to 3s, you'll have some trouble being balanced on the landings. Make sure to land well balanced before working on 5s because that might screw things up because you might overspin 3s and by trying to stop the rotation you might tend to lean backward.

so i guess you are doing what some posers here are calling throwing corks. its so hilarious, everytime, when they just flow out of the lip so theyre head/feet axis is at about 20°, and they land kinda backseat, its a cork 5 or a cork 3. they dont get it that cork 3s and 5s are different tricks, not just leaning backwards at the lip....
but really, try to pop off the lip or try to get a grab in it, safeties are keeping it straight, if you ask me
