he seems to get perfectly enough height 0_o Why doesn't he land?

His second attempt is much better than his first

He has no flat spin whatsoever and his twisting form just stiiinks.

The camera angle makes it look higher than it is.

he is def doing old school cork form. so there would be no flat spin really.
air awareness is my guess.
its his first attempt, he will get it soon.

This problem with corks has been coming up lately. Where you can get the height and spin, but you just can't finish it.

I dunno, I think this guy def has the height and probably spin, his timing is just off. Same with towels's and sometimes brandonns

he kicks straight up (old school. already been said) instead of towards his opposite shoulder/ear.

He could probably land it. He doesnt have a shitty landing. He just doesnt need to put his hands down, and it would work. Although i have seen better corks.

he needs to j-step so he moves up instead of so far forward
