KaneDogjust keep carving hard off the lip of the jump and you'll get a feeling for it. to actually cork takes commitment, but carving into a 25ft jump will give you a good handle on it. lots of videos on youtube as well.
skierman_jackThere’s two ways to do it:
do a cork sev but land early
do a cork 3 and continue the rotation
i Find natural safety feels right
The key is commitment. Good luck and post clips if you land

cork7blountIve heard of people just carving into a 5 and grabbing lead safety to do a baby cork, but I think I'm just gonna huck it and see how it goes. Iv'e found one video about cork 5 on ski addiction, but everybody seems to teach cork 7 or 3 on youtube from what I can find.
gusbus432send a vid when you land it, as someone newer to spins past 360 id love to see this and how you go about corking it

Any tips on how I can set this better/make it flippier? Besides getting more speed.

ReturnToMonkeyLooks like you are really having to skate hard into that. Was it cus it was windy or is Eldora's park not quite as good as I heard?
cork7blountNah it's a good park for what it is but it was like 40 degrees yesterday and my skis are due for a wax.
ReturnToMonkeyI can get them pretty consistently by carving, but sometimes I want to cork off a jump that is like 3 feet wide and you cant really carve it without catching an edge do you have any tips for that or should I just stop trying them lol

CT_CREWAs said before try more of a carve into your actual pop. Also try thinking about setting your left ear down towards the take off (like a Lincoln loop), as you pop upwards out of your carve....The "Lincoln Loop" style set, combined with the carve and pop will send you into that flippy cork 5 rotation.
