i was at smugg's in vt yesterday, and i was trying to cork, and i found that by throwing my inside arm downwards when i spun, i got a near vertical cork. also, it made it easy to nail my grab. anyone else do it this way?
'where did you get all these scars?' 'uh, skateboard, truck and.........a fire hydrant' 'wow, you have had a lotta accidents then.' 'no, i skateboarded off of a truck into a fire hydrant'

i got beat by jon, i fucking hate that guy, he always wins'


' so what do you want to do?'

that would be the way that you set a corked spin.

so by inside arm you mean the arm toward where you spin like if I spin left I drop my left or my right arm?

yeah,, everyone that was dising me for not knowing that. a lot of people dont know how to cork that way. and i have been trying all sorts of different ways to cork, and i stomped a sick one first time. i spin to the left, so my inside hand would be my left one

when i'm doing a cork I kind of look directly at the ground when I come off the jump and then my skis follow some how. Random...

Yeee, ever since I got my new jacket, most of my spins have been rather off axis.... its scaring me, but I like them, and I have been landing them too.

do the chickens have large talons?

they are not really that hard. I learned em a few days ago and if you have your threes then just try to get a good carve of the jump and drop that shoulder likes it hot. but yeah i hear corked 7's are the eassiet....
