Probably classified as a d-spin. But like skifreeordie said, sometimes it's so close there's no difference.

You know something that would really make me applaud? A guy gets stuck in quicksand, then sinks, then suddenly comes shooting out, riding on water skis. How do they do that?

Yea it was a D-spin. I used to not be able to tell the difference from a cork 9 or a D-spin 9 but it u watch an if u c the corked 3 an then his skis go up for the back flip its a d spin. If the skier just spinning off axis its a cork. Just keep watchin an you can tell the difference

on a d-spin...your head will be a lot lower than your body (you get more inverted) and a cork...you're more level with the ground (this screwed me up at lake louise yesterday, when i went for a d-spin 7 in the park, and did an overrotated cork 9 instead.... (if you're trying to d-spin...lean back when you throw it...cork...lean a little back and sideways)

I havn't seen the movie, but if he goes inverted it is a d-spin, if not it is corked.

The differance is simple, but people always go in between so it is debateable, a cork is a spin with feet forward head back and paralell to the snow and a d spin is the same to start but then the person rotatesit under to make it a d spin
