The leg that you kick up with needs to come higher before you start twisting. Notice in your last attempt (worst attempt) your leg only comes up to about your waist. In order to land it, yeah, you need to stall the twist so that the first leg has more time to come up. Make sure your arms are also right up against your chest when you're twisting. You'll have it soon man!

its not nessesarly good to throw your leg up higher...in your case you need to put more speed into the swing thru of your leg and arms...while throwing your arms and leg up, look up.....then you need to throw your head back and the to side your sping...then throw your arms behind your head a little and wrap tight. your right leg doesnt have to go up high, and it doesnt have to be straight either. also you open up way to early, stay wrapped in longer.

watch teddy's tutorial...i know its for a double cork but essentualy its the same thing as cork except staying wrapped in longer to complete the second rotation.

You should stall the GF before you unleash your cork. A lot of first timers let it go before their GF is fully... satisfied, shall we say...

Remember, the cork is hard. You might want to break this move down... you know, practice it without the GF... and your hands... I mean arms to help get yourself up and get off the ground.
