I've recently gotten very interested in corks and variations, they're just fun. That said I'm not all that good at them in my opinion. Any tips for improving my corks and finally landing some hypercorks would be appreciated :smile:

you should spot the ground because out of fear you are lunging for it with your arms instead of your foot... spot and just put your foot down you have enough rotation :)

Your swinging with a straight leg all the way up, You need to swing to about thigh height then bend it, once your twisting give or take on timing, you can re straighten!

Edit: Think slant gainer, Same motion
