You need to turn you face and look straight to the ground as you spin and then back up and around to the sky which will put you to your feet for a cork 5 . If you wanna cork 3 you look straight to the ground the entire spin. All you are doing is dipping your shoulder quickly

I did the same thing for so long trying cork 5s. The advice that helped me was to forget about my head. Everyone always says to lean your head to shoulder and shit. Instead focus on kicking your feet out and around. You still have to dip your head and shoulder but if you get your feet out in front then it will come naturally

Just carve in really hard and set like a cork but not as hard and let it float around

i remember watching a video once, don't remember who made it, but they said pretend you're trying to plant your feet on a verticle wall...good way of visualizing it
