Jarrett Moore's Trick Tip: The Corkflip:
With this trick it is important that you have mastered the backflip before trying. I personally find that if I am going to be going upside down, this is the way I prefer. Adding a little cork allows me to see the landing longer, as well as suffer less sever consequences with over rotation. That is not to say that it doesn't have its disadvantages.
If you don't know how to straight flip, I would not try this trick out.
