Try to imagine theres a table top in the air. you want to drop your shoulder and spin and try lay your back flat on the table in the air. from there you're going to turn about 90 more degrees and you should be able to spot your landing. That's for a cork 7

Let me clarify a lot haha.

So if you were trying to spin left. You would come into the jump with feet shoulder width apart for a good base.

You would start your rotation to the left and drop your shoulder and you will be facing the ground
don't spot the ground, your rotation will stop there.
you would spin 180 more degrees and that's where you are trying to put your back on the table.
Now that that is clarified more I really only concentrate on putting my back on the table.
Just keep your head and shoulders leading and the rest will follow in naturally and you will spot your landing.
