i learned by dropping my inside shoulder and looking down over it, if you over exagerate it you can move into a bio spin(i think)

I'd say corked 7's are actually easier than corked 5's, watch videos in slow motion, imagine motion in mind, and look for landing and reach your whole body around for it after the first 3.

Simple tips to keep in mind... once in the air, crunch up in a ball and stare at your feet. It will throw your rotation off-axis, corked. Then it's up to you to stay in control and pull out at the right time to land.

just carve towards the way you rotate, drop the shoulder to the way you rotate, and swing your legs around first..

If you spin left, throw the rotation as if you were trying to grab your left ski with your right hand, spin right grab right ski with left hand. Thats how I do it, works pretty well. Forces you to drop a shoulder and puts you cork, and reduces the chances you'll freak out in midair because you tried carving off and got messed up.
