spin with the jump, not forward to keep yourself straight.

act like you are turning a huge wheel and look over your shoulder, you will probly do a cork 7 first but then you'll get comfortable corking then be able to time it right to land switch

Get low and try to grab the lip of the jump after youve taken off

When I learned it, I did it with a reverse mute. It helped me getting off axis, and it looks pretty dope IMO. Try to do a reverse mute at the same time you drop your left shoulder at the jump (if you are spinning left obviously..) Good luck:)

each line shos a different axis somone would spin on, he means that u shouldnt spin so ur horizontal instead u should spin on the same angle of the take off of the jump.

Click for larger image

he means to spin on the axis of the blue line, not the red one, try looking at it that way
