View Full Version : Help me Cork. (with vid)
Help Shido Corkscrew! :good::tongue:
CorkAttempts.mpg (http://www.xendynasty.com/temp/CorkAttempts.mpg)
From what I can tell from the video, I def need to kick higher and most likely more angled so the foot goes in an upright way kinda. :eh:
But.......any other advice would be great.
No I can't gainer from a Jstep yet. I am going to give that a shot this week when I hit the gym. I know that would help greatly. :punched:

- get straight to the point instead of circling around.
- kick harder for j-step, i mean HARD and more to the SIDE.
- turning ur body while u kick and lean back helps me, try that.
- block more for momentum.
- tighten ur body ( if you squeeze ur ass it helps lol ).
- open up ur body lil later, cuz ur opening up to quick man.
other then dat' pretty gg maang

You must get more height Shido my freind! Push off hard with that base leg first, and then curl your arms in and flow yourself around. And you seemed to be kicking out too soon, that kills all your momentum as well. Oh, and why do you almost go backwards with this? It seems like you're flying yourself backwards and also killing height and momentum. Try that, Mr. Sexy.
watch your kicking leg for as long as possible. This will maximize the height of the kick and help you prevent arching your back.
Sh't man.. all i can say is it's improve'n.. ur doin it on Grass.. now... something that i dont see from u very often
Cork isn't very risky anyway. Its just......bruising my leg and ass a bit. haha. I'd prefer to.......land it of course and stop bruising myself though. :punched:

I can see how it could hurt, if you really fucked up. But landing like I do doesn't hurt much. Its just.....well its not pleasent, but not painful. haha.

haha looks like my old attempts. i remember being concussed for a few days....
well shido, looks to me like you just need to start stalling a little. when i learnt to gainer i figured you gotta just try and get into a horizontal position as high as you can, kinda like an olympic high jump. just do that and youll stomp em for sure :good:
Crashing corks sucks when you concuss yourself with your shoulder.
As for the advice, just RUN the fuck into it! The spin you do before it looks like it loses far too much momentum to be good. So just run, take a sharp turn and lunge with your jumping leg, and throw everything up into the move.
dude, try the reverse gainer way for the take off, it made me land it, i'll get some footage of me doing one to show you .

doesn't that kill height?, and also make it a gfull?
i wouldn't say it kills height, i can't reverse gainer but have to j step it so it's the only way i can do it, i find the stepping round of the j step doesn't get me enough power to swing my self up for long enough to rotate, and it kinda confuses me.
It doesn't make it a g full cos i am kicking myself horizontal, i use the reverse gainer take off but still kick around or diagonal as i would in a kick the moon, so even though i'm using the reverse gainer foot plant thing i am kicking around rather than straight up. I would say it's a cork because i twist whilst i am horizontal, for it to be a gainer full i think i would have to do the rotation while i was upside down and moving forward, kinda like ben brown kinda - http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/4673/gainerfull5ln.gif
i'll try and get some footage of it tonight at the gym

if you want freakin nice piss easy corks
percieviere with the reverse gainer setup, because when you can land them from reverse gainer setup you can do it from ANY setup
and from your video, ok you want to watch the kicking leg go up and you ant to kikc it up straight
dont lean back untill its really high up
and also remember to jump
reverse gainer setup ftw!
