you are whipping way too hard, on that cork 3 you almost whipped a really stiff cork 7. Try to be more loose about. I dont have much advice for you on the cork 3 and 5 because i cant really stomp those 100% of the time, but for cork 7's you are going to want to try and look more behind you and at the heel of your boot. It helped me to learn with a tweaked safety. Also, it seems like you have to whip hard at first but, believe me. YOU DONT. be causual about it.

I had the same problem two years ago but what i did was just strted doing regular 7s first and then just starting to cork it by droping my shoulder and looking back when i take off. The main point i learned that corck come rather naturally so dont try and force the backwards motion just remember to drop your shoulder and look back whn you take off. It also helps to stay tucked rather than like a poll like you just did. Mabey reach for a safety or some other grab when you try.

Just keep throwing it. You'll land one. You just need a jump with a generous amount of pop and a long ride out in case you send it. I always tend to do that when I'm trying new stuff.

Don't really cork 3, flat 3s are so much better and look better. You should try more for the cork 7. You'll have to buck more, but its less of an awkward rotation. That's why you're being really stiff when you throw the cork 3.

Straight hucking is like playing Russian roulette. You may get lucky but, eventually you are gonna get fucked

Go faster, hit something bigger, and slow your rotation down. Throwing it wayyyy too hard. May help to just get normal 7's, then gradually cork it more and more.

Try to carve, a cork is smooth, not to be hucked

Find a bigger jump. Also be patient off the lip and get a good pop.

I wouldnt say any of those were cork 3 or 5... the first one was gonna be a cork 7, but you spun out to a 9 and lost all the flip. The second and third were cork 7's that you just came up a little short on. Keep trying!

OK. I watched you spot the last two. Just go faster. You need to actually clear the jump. If you clear the jump you'll stomp it.
