Hey NS,
Newb park skier here. I've always been confused on what the rotations are of off-axis flips. I can throw corks on the trampoline, so I know what a cork is, But what are the rotations of the others? Also, in double/triple flips, when does the second/third flip start?

Sorry if repost, tried looking online for stuff but nothing helped.

I've always understood it as:

Cork: Spin-misty

Misty: Frontflip with spin

Rodeo: Backflip with spin

Flat: Lincoln with opposite way spin
