You huck it on a trampoline till you’re confident enough to rip it on snow. Then you’ll either lace it perfectly or eat shit and never try them again.

Make sure you can stomp a 720 with ease. Then, to spin off axis, look down at your rear binding while you do your pop. Dont just lean back on it; that will cause a death spin

go to your local rec centre and flip and spin off the diving board, thats how id practice in summer. being able to at least huck a cork 7 or cork 9 into water should be invaluable, obtaining that sensational aerial awareness and feeling how well you know your direction of spin. get to the diving board!

First you need to learn about cork, before you can stomp one.
Cork according to Wikipedia:
Cork is an impermeable buoyant material, the phellem layer of bark tissue that is harvested for commercial use primarily from Quercus suber (the cork oak), which is endemic to southwest Europeand northwest Africa. Cork is composed of suberin, a hydrophobic substance. Because of its impermeable, buoyant, elastic, and fire retardant properties, it is used in a variety of products, the most common of which is wine stoppers.

Typically shutting off brain function allows the body to take over and progress at an unprecedented speed.

I pretty much religiously threw cork 7s on a trampoline first. However I'm learning things out of order, I don't know how to spin anything over a 360 regular. So I can't really offer much advice, I'm more comfortable doing rodeo 5s than I am spinning a normal 5 and learned how to cork 7 without even trying a regular 720. The general consensus however seems to be to learn regular 720s at least before even trying a cork 7.

corking isn't something you just learn, it's a lifestyle. its something you have to pour your heart and soul into and truly believe in. when a man corks he becomes whole and fulfilled in the world. even though this all sounds great, there is no turning back once you cork. you won't ever be the same as you were before.

now go my child and become one with the next realm.
