Full to cork 7 help

I lack the balls to bounce on one of those bad boiz
tis a pity for I am shitty

Reach to grab your foot. I feel like I forget how to cork 7 every season and usually grabbing helps it come back

So you’re in Colorado now. I will find you.

Learn the set in this video. when doing the first back drop part, keep your feet well below your head. Focus on setting your hips less up toward the ceiling, and more on getting the outside of your right hip to go 90 degrees to your left in an arc

Edit: opposite for the last part if you spin right

No thats actually pretty much exactly the axis that you want to shoot for when you're learning them. A lot of people learn them misty cork style, and that usually doesn't translate too well to snow. You just need to keep doing them and start playing around with different grabs, each grab will alter the rotations lightly, and before you know it you will have all the tools to decide how flippy you want to make it.

You can’t find me cause I follow you everywhere. I live in your attic. I smell your socks every night

Mackaroni_spaceSo you’re in Colorado now. I will find you.

So I should just play around with grabs? And what’s misty cork style lol.

pretty much yea. misty cork is when you set the cork forward, almost like a misty or bio. They're much more intuitive on trampolines than regular cork 7s (at least for me, I had a really hard time breaking the misty cork habit on tramps), and they do actually work pretty well for flat or downhill takeoffs, especially if its a powdery big mountain takeoff. But for park and the vast majority of cork 7s in general, you want to set it kinda backflip 360 ish so you're not fighting the angle of the takeoff. I've only done dub corks on tramps, never on snow, but the backflippy set is definitely better for progressing to dubs too.

But yea, you're just a little too flippy, its more of a D spin, but I really wouldn't worry about it. At this stag thats what you want. Just keep doing them, keep doing different grabs, and just by learning different grabs, you will get a better feeling for how to control how flippy it gets. As you learn different grabs, you'll find that some of them change the axis slightly, and you'll start to get a feel for how dropping one hand or lifting a hip or whatever it is that you do to get the grab, it will start to give you a feel for how to control the rotation. Next time you go, do a couple just like this one to warm up, then try to learn 4-6 different grabs, some with your left hand and some with your right. By the time you learn both safeties, both japans, and both mutes, and maybe one where you extend your legs like truck or nosemute, then you'll probably have the axis dialed to where its second nature.

Is this a misty cork? Throwing it backwards felt way more comfortable

I've recently learned cork 7's this summer too. I may not be qualified to give you advice, but I can tell you that a misty and cork are two different tricks. A misty is a forward set trick, similar to a front (full, half, etc) with less flip. A cork is set backwards. More like a modified back (full, half, etc). When someone says misty cork, it doesn't mean the trick is set forward. It is more like doing a 180 to a misty. Your shoulders and chest go down instead of up. A cork should ideally be set upwards with your chest pointing to the sky.

explain what you mean by misty cork style. I kinda feel like I do that and it fucks me up

For sure, I was in a bit of a rush so I'll clips from my progression. This first clip is my very first cork 7 that I landed. I opened a thread to improve it for a similar reason of it being too flippy. I got some feedback, and I think I've incorporated it decently. Here is a misty cork (or mork):

The advice I got was to focus on pointing my chest up and bringing my hips up. The difference is not huge. Here is an improved (note the upwardness is slightly exaggerated to demonstrate):

The trick that you did was just a misty 7, which is a different trick. If you wanted to do a cork into the pit, you would go off the trampoline backwards.

That’s bio 7 (forward cork)

Work on the pop and set being more horizontal and less vertical…. 360 airplane spins to your back are the traditional progression…. Work on laying out fully horizontally backwards doing a 3 and landing on your back.

once you have that down it’s pretty easy to dump your feet around without fully flipping

Yoooo that one looked really nice! Hyped to hear that my contribution to the clock app was useful.

Tbh, you're learning them right. Having a flippy axis or a d spin is the key to getting dubs later on. And yours is flippy, but you aren't slinging it, you're getting a proper pop and bringing your body up into the rotation, not down. Just keep doing them a bunch, try to play with different axis (the key for me is visualizing the position of your hips in relation to your head). They'll be less flippy on skis naturally as well. Good looks!

this might also help you

the set is the same for every cork don't matter if grabbed or not.

by the way, the amount your hips are involved on the takeoff will determine the steepness of the cork. thats literally it.

You will find out later, for when you try to learn cork9,10,12 etc. -> the less your hip is being used to push out /forward (staying more upright) -> the flatter & longer you stay in a cork for higher degrees of a rotation.

for dubs later the hips obviously will be activated more :)


gl have fun learning
