I've heard corks are easier to do, is that true? if so are there any pointers on corks? prolly start out trying a cork 5 first?

they're not that hard once you start trying them, i'd go for a cork 7 first, they are more of a natural rotation, 5s are more blind and you just sort of have to 'set' the rotation of a 5 and let it roll around

hahah theyre def not easier than reg spins. just get used to the regular spin and start corking it more and more, i found it was easiest to start with 5s

corks are easier than straight airs.

Yea I tried my 1st cork 5 this weekend and I noticed that it was blind and I landed it 2nd try and I want to do 7s, but scared...and as for corks being easy? whoever told u that is wrong cuz being off axis in the air u have to be pacient (sp?) and have ur spins down...hope I helped u a bit.

3's 5's and 7's are easier then cork 3's 5' and 7's but go bigger then that and corks become easier because when you have to huck yourself really hard you have more trouble staying on axis which takes away from your rotation but when you try a cork 1080 or 1260 corked you go off axis on purpose so it doesnt matter how much off axis you go if that made any sense at all. you never see pros do 1260's reg cause they cant do them controlled and stylie but cork 1260's are more common cause they CAN be thrown with style.
