So i have been able to land "cork 5s" for a few months now, I carve off, set it and land switch, but lately after watching videos im finding im going really flippy and going more of under flip. Even if i carve off setting it i still go too inverted How can i make it more of a cork rather than a flip.

The first key point : set a nice , slow carve , depending on the size of the jump, of the takeoff. Once your feet leave the ground you want your stomach to be paralell to the table. Reach for a grab and let it spin you arround. Be pattient on the takeoff and just try to be paralell to the ground at 180.

pop out not over, grab safety with wide legs.

For me it helps to like reach down for the lip of the jump with your leading hand.
