ight im thinkin about throwing a corked 7 or maybe 9 tomorow night and idk what to do. Ive never done it off a tramp or a divingboard and i dont really have the best jumping skills. id be doing it on a like really poppy 35 ft. stepdown. So ive read on how to go corked by ''slapping my left asscheek with my right arm'' because id be spinning right but how do you go uncorked and when should i start going uncorked? I have no idea about this so please help me

prolly not best to huck a cork 9 on icy shit at night if youve never spun one off anything... i would say tramp it up then go for cork 7. if you do them right you come around perfect, but takes a little getting used to

the way you throw the cork (if you do it correctly) will naturally bring you out of the cork. its for this reason, that i reccomend doing them on the tramp before anything else (or diving board). When you do throw them though, just keep looking over your shoulder and you'll come out of it and spot the landing and hopefully ride away like a champ

sounds a little scary. but yeah you dont have to do anything to come uncorked. just keep looking for your landing and you will come out of it.

tramps dont help on corks, it feels 200% different on snow
just spin normally with a few 7s
then one time same shit just slap your ass and KEEP with the spin it feels weird, the spin naturally pulls you out of it. I dont consciously think about coming un corked
it just happens.
