Tried to cork 7 on airbag for the first time, and that video was my best attempt. I can cork 10 on trampoline, but as soon as I tried to cork on skis, it felt so different, like I had to throw it so much harder and I couldnt even get round to 7. Loads of my attempts just ended up with me landing on my back at roughly 540 (kinda like an underflip). I know I'm maybe doing it too flippy, but what else am I doing wrong?

Dont actually do this until you learn cork 7 properly. Carving can make it allot easier to mork. TBH ur set looked decent just pop more and dont try and rush it. Ur head is at 180 while ur feet are still almost straight. Next time try and pop, set, and wrap instead of doing them all at once.

Ahh that makes sense, so should my upper and lower body be less separated? And if start the rotation a tiny bit later that will help? Appreciate the help!

Keep your hips and shoulders moving together this will help it feel more fluid. I don't think you need to start the rotation later more so slow your upper body down to connect with the lower body, this will also give you more power. More practice will help it feel more natural.
Looks super good for the first 1s g!
