How to get the balls to huck shit?

I have good air awareness, I have a good jump, I want to lay down a flat 5, an inverted cork 3, and possibly a cork 7, but I always talk myself out of throwing these hot tricks. What are your methods of getting the balls to fucking send it? Pump up songs? Convincing yourself you've done it before? I'd like to avoid drugs but if needed, but might give in if the ends justify the means.

OP delivers! it's a really sketchy cork 7, not all the way off axis but it's a start. I pussied out of a flatspin though...

The song Beam by Mako always gets me pumped. Also, have friends there that will peer pressure you.

Whenever im trying something new i always ride alone or with a good friend. i always have a song list that i listen too when trying something new and sketchy and when i plug in my earplugs and have some of my favourite songs on the ear i just focus on the trick. i visualize it in my head many times before and also jumps on the jump some times too. then i usually throw some snow in my face and just drop in and try. this is my method but i hope it works for you too :)

The friend I was skiing with got hurt hitting that jump so they just told me to throw shit, never talked out even if I looked like I was about to die. Love them for that. Also is it weird that I got that off axis 7 before ever doing a regular one?

I'm not afraid of not landing on my feet, but I am afraid of accidentally under committing and snapping my neck on some stupid shit.

I don't know if you're into this type of music, but FIDLAR - Cocaine gets me pumped the fuck up.
Also if you can visualize it in your head, then I guarantee you will get the rotation right as long as you commit. Finally, pick a jump that gives you a lot of clearance from the ground (height) vs something that sends you far (distance). Good luck OP.
