our season has not even started yet at Timberline, but last year I could do ugly no-grab-cork 7s but could never even get myself to go for a safety. just wondering if anyone had tips.

If you can’t grap a safety it sounds like you need a bigger jump

practice grabs on ur cork 5 and flat 5. Maybe do more different grabs in ur backflips too. If u do that it’ll come super easily.

Try and go faster and higher on a bigger jump so you have air time to be able to do the grabs.

Blunt is the only one I've gotten on a cork on skis. Since my tail is right where my head ends up after setting, I can watch the grab happen. Can't figure out how to get any other grab and land it
