I can safety 7 and backy on snow and I’ve got the cork 7 set on trampoline so I’m ready to try it on snow. Should I cork it a little bit at first and gradually work my way to a full cork or go all the way?

Actually though, if you learned on tramp, you gotta fully commit. You've got it man. Whenever I do a half assed cork, I land backseat which is bad.

I did the gradual thing and it worked pretty well. Did a few regular 7s, a few slightly off axis, and by that time the jitters were gone and I just full on threw it. Learned em on a soft day too.

I got a question. If I do a bunch of corks and backflips into an airbag should I just do it on a park jump? Or wait for a powder day. Idk when the next one will be.

depends if you're able to spot landing and adjust speed of rotation = send it, or, if you're just hucking and getting muscle memory from the size of the jump = try some more and learn to adjust rotation

full cork, make sure you get a grab in there so you uncork. Tramp you can get sloppy and still uncork but on skis make sure you get the grab

Aight, if I feel really good into an airbag should I build a jump or just sent in park
