I can;t double cork for shiiiittt aggghh. Simon said to think of it mainly as a double full but I just don't get anywhere near the same power. i can practically double full from a really shitty bent leg no momentum cartwheel/roundoff at the end of a crappy combo but dcork i just can't spin enough. Maybe I don't tense my ass hard enough =[

a high cork and a double full on trampoline or something.

Actually I just realized that the first time I landed a double cork was right after learning and landing double fulls.

tho, all you need to do is spin again

lol make sure you focus on every single part of the move individually. e.g. when you do the set up think about perfect blocking, foot position and turn, when you take off think about bringing arms right up in time with your legs, when you're in the air think about reaching the peak/maximum height before you really torque your shoulders in and spin like a mother fucker

double full from a round off, or double full from raiz... which one?

learn to cork over your own head then just hold on to the spin for an extra rotation. It works well.

to cork over your own head you need to kick FREAKIN HARD AND HIGH and wait a fuck load.

Shuriken cork, cork round, hyper, boxcutter, cork dleg, etcetcetc..

cork round? good for cork snapu...

hyper, i guess for cutter,
shuriken, useless, paracork, useless

I can do every damn cork variation with time to spare (except a nice cutter). I think I am just a total gimp at spinning =[

What if you can already hyper and have a head high cork?

you just have to try them. get to know how it feels to spin extra even though your going to hit the ground hard on your side or something, that helped me get the fear off my chest then you have to twist tight, thats what matters most. put power into your setup and your arms give you the fast twist, wrap them in tight and keep legs together tight!

See KGB you are one of the guys who i think, when i see it, you just fucking set SO HIGH then think "ok lets spin 2 spins" and complete them with your mad height. That's what it looks like when i watch yours anyway haha.

other guys like simon and matt r and most of the swedes seem to do more of a "lets do a cork, and as im coming down to land wrap the fuck in for another spin" like more of a cork gyro thing. I think you need an absolutely perfect take off to nail em like you do, not to mention crazy hops.

I should do it the scot/swedish way, I just can't help doing the whole "run, set, 2 spins" thing.

none of these will help him get an extra spin :eh:

i really dont know why you're suggesting them. Boxcutters will help, but shuriken cork/cork dleg/cork round will only slow the rotation or require him to do less of a rotation than a regular cork, so you're basically advising him to spin less... do you see where im going?

just get freakin high corks, get to a point where you can complete an easily landed cork without wrapping completely in or giving 100% torque. Then start to progress onto hyper corks and overrotated hypers (i.e a chambered no-kick boxcutter) and see how much more you need to wrap your arms in and torque. Then blast it and go for 100% height 100% torque and you should be able to make a significant difference in the amount of spin you can generate.

Other than that, watch Teddy's tutorial. That guy is a beast.

yeah, thats kinda how is see it, lol. but whatever feels better for you, you should do it. if not then try other methods, like mine :tongue:. good luck :smile:

fuck people, it all comes down to being able to double full really fast. height isn't important, luke broadlick did a double cork with like neck height(pretty generous actually, probably less than neck)

and some people get way over head height yet still fucking fail. :wink:

just kick as hard as i you can,and from the minute you're of the ground,spin and tuck in as hard as you can and you will land,try it about 5-10 times,and if you're not even close,just wait for a few weeks and try it again,you will see the difference.

thats the way that i did it
hope it helps

have you done it on flat rather than off the edge of a tumble track?

I'd like to see it :smile: your twists look good

yea. try and go up more first...you appear to be travelling backwards and loosing much power that oculd be going into going straight up. come round a little more in your j-step

Wow, it'll just clicks one day........ it did with me and now i spin to much.......
