get comfortable on the jump youre going to throw it on, its always good to throw a regular 7 before so you know how hard to throw the corked 7. pop with your weight centered, throw a 7 while dropping your shoulder(tucking during the spin helps a lot), start spotting the landing around 540ish and land. you shouldnt have any problems with uncorking it, or else youre just throwing it wrong. i think if you watch john kutcher's POV video it would help you with awareness in the air during cork 7's

fagot...

For a quark 7 learn quark 5s first and it consists of the same motion of looking at your back binding but you just spin more because on the last 180 you shouldnt b off axis... just look up some trick tip vids

goodluck

you might wanna try it on like a diving board or tramp first. just to get the basic motion down. then bring it to the skis

maybe i'm the retard here but i find it easier to cork 7 than regular 7. its just more natural. not really really cork, but enough to claim it.

i haven't done one yet, but am gonna try soon.  i heard just get 7's consistently. Then keep throwing htem and it just happens.  if that doesn't work, carve, or throw right shoulder towards left boot (spinning left)  then just throw it around and keep iit going.  they come around easy, i really wanna try this weekend.

ASK TURPIN cult is perfect for you. check that out there's a thread made by chris turpin, a pro skier, on how to learn corks properly without killing yourself. check it out its definitely worthwhile for anybody trying to visualize tricks properly.

Corks shouldn't be forced at all. Especially a cork 7.

1) Pop
2) start your 720 rotation
3) look at your tails and tuck up
4) just let it come around
5) stomp dat shit

If you TRY to cork, you will most likely end up doing some sort of flip that makes you fall and get hurt. You need to just let it flow, like most skiing tricks.

cork five is much harder. for cork 5 there really is no last 180. is more of a 90 lincoln loop 90. for cork seven just dip your shoulder a little more every time and it will come. I also heard on ehre once, get 7 tail, then once that is locked, move for the tail, but dont actually grab it
