Ok, this is gonna sound like a dumbass question by why is it when I hear someone is said to be good and then they go off and say they 'carve' off jumps to spin? Does this make them better or something then if they don't off the lip to spin? I just don't see the difference. I know its a stupid and everyone is gonna bitch at me for asking but seriously you get more style points for being able to carve a 900 then to just spin it normally? Im confused, someone fill me in here. peace

its easier to cork out a smaller rotation when you carve off
Dont get gloves though, gloves are out. just use a cigarette to keep your hands warm.

yeah, it's just easier to set spins like cork 3s. i would be amazed to see someone do a cork 3 with no carve.
What the fuck do you expect? It's like leaving a crackhead in a room full of crack, you know what's gonna happen.

carving + not wanting corked = bad things

bahaha funny shit. Carving off the lip is exactly what it is. You crave your skis of the lip. Say your carving left off a lip its easier to set spins to the left and it looks smoother and cooler. You also travel in the direction you carve so your not just going off the jump straight. Also carving off a jump does not automattically mean you are going to cork. It does make it easier however
