^ yeah man that's what I did. Have you ever done a cork 7 on trampoline? If you haven't I would not recommend trying it or else you will probably wreck yourself

i just learned my first cork 7 the other day. First find or build a jump w/ a soft landing. Make the jump steep so that if you throw a regular seven you will be off axis. Then right on the lip of the jump drop your right shoulder if you spin right and act like your going to grab your tail w/ your left hand. THrow the rotation then open up when you see your landing and leen forward

Don't try cork 5 first. Cork 7's have a much smoother flow and come alot more natural. Cork 5's you have to force a bit more.

Cork 7's on snow and tramp are very similar. IT is pretty much the same motion. Only thing is yo uhave probably been doing them on a round tramp so you're used to throwing them hard to get them around. On snow you have to be alot more patient, but that will come after you do them more.

no^^ dont look donw u will die. just basicly thrown a 7 but dont really try to 'swing' your arms horrizontally . swing your left arm (if u spin left) a litle downwards

try to spin unnatural. like a 540. whenever i spin unnatural i always cork it, even if i don't mean to. then you've got an even better trick dialed....

i dunno, whenever you see cork sevens your spining so your feet are facing twards the landing but on a trampoline you have to spin it so your feet are sideways, it seems differnt i dunno though i can't do them

Leaning forward to get uncorked is probably the wierdest part. I just like to look down like I'm looking at my left boot and then safety grab the right one.

Would a cork-7 or misty-7 be easier? I started practicing both last season but broke my jaw before I had either one dialed.

I did one by accident this summer on teh water ramps. Was trying to throw a shane flip and ended up throwing a cork 7 haha. I can do em on the tramp now, just gotta try throwing it when there is enough snow.

Don't be a pussy and just go for it. Trail and error is the best way to go especially when your not a rich enough basterd to afford trampolines or go session special water ramps.

^^ you have to bve rich enough to ski bud. skiing is probably one of the most expensive sports to do often twins are 200 at cheapest bindings 100 boots and poles 200 thats 500 with out lift tickets lift tickets are another 200-1000 depending on how much you go I think everyone whop skis seriously should be able to run down to BJ's wholesale or home depot and pick up a 14' tramp for 150. Soo..... that said get a tramp and try it. I can spin cork 10's on my tramp havent tried a cork on snoww yet though. prob should get my 7's dialed first.

^ Got my skis for 180 (last year models), boots for under 150, poles where hand-me-downs and the lift tickets are free for working at the mountain. Insurance sky rockets with a trampoline and a good tramp can run much higer than 150 bucks. Skiing can be an expensive sport if you make it to be one.
