I started to really go for a cork today

i know im bailing at the end, but i dont really know how to fix that so any and all tips are appreciated.

You need to get your legs higher. Which means stall more.

[Matt K]

how do i not bail though because its just like a second nature reaction that just kinda happens?

he gets his leg high enough, ok your fine man, your leaning back. its all a matter of getting used to twisting that much your body physically doesnt know how to spin that much yet, the only way to fix that is keep drilling and youll get it fairly quickly.

right now you kick your knee up instead of ur leg which is fine although it makes you twist with bent legs, if you kick up with a straight leg instead its cleaner and you twist faster. Good luck man.

I got it more horizontal and here are a few of todays attempts. Im still bailing out, but it's kinda starting to come together I guess..

Edit:The second one is much better than the first, and is more like most of my other attempts (except the face plant)

your j-step take of isn't good
you walk almost in a straight line, try to make a halfe circle at the end
then throw your kicking leg a little bit to the left en don't throw you knee up you will lose al your power but throw your streched leg up.
and when your in the air you need to torque harder.
i hope it helps
ow and don't forget to kick to the ground as hard as you can when your landing

haha, how does the grass taste :P~
On a serious note, you arent peaking at the top of your jump, and your twist isnt quick enough, the best way i have found to peak your height on corks is focus on just above eye level, when i do my j-step i basically wait till i see my foot then start to twist.

I did a cork tut a while back, dont know where it went to, maybe someone link mine, or another tut for you, but your are pretty close matie, keep going it, it will come :)

Well here's my first "landed" one. I shot it the day after the last footage, and it's just alright.
