Can you jump toeside? If not, then work on that before you start to try inverts.

i can jump toeside not as good as hs, but still enough to clear wake 2 wake

Alright, i'd go for a hs Backroll. i think its the easiest. Just make sure to ride all the way up the wake so you pop and try not to initiate the rotation so much with your shoulders and head but with your hips. thats what helped me most.

The HS Backroll should feel very natural. Its one of the easiest inverts and does not take as much effort as a front flip or tantrum.

Back roll or a Tantrum. A Tantrum is most like a back flip on a trap, so if you are really good at throwing themon a tramp it may be eaisest for you.
