| Do you land your hs w2w jumps consistantly? You might not be ready for it. What else can you do? |

TS Front definatly isn't the easiest IMO.
Stick with the backroll though. But like garrett said, what all can you do on the board so far? So many people try to rush strait into the inverts. Not only will this hurt you in the future, but it will take 100x longer to land it. |

thats how i feel about every board sport. skate snow etc. straight airs w/ grabs are fun, and though they do get boring after a while, you can never make em TOO stylish. im afraid to do backflips, or launch big toeside...so its pretty much heelside straight airs for me. who knows, once i get more comfy ill try something, but being that im 22, i dont expect to try to go pro or anything, its more of something to do on a nice day.
on a relative note, ive found frontside airs easier on a wakeboard, backside on a skateboard, and any 180 on a snowboard to be easiest. but thats my preference.
my suggestion: try both ways, whatever feels more COMFORTABLE not closer to landing, and once you stick that, you will have the feel of the trick, and be able to visualize the other way, and it should be easier. again, just my opinion. i have no experience in inverted tricks on any board. |

Can you do huge H/S and T/S 180s and w2w's H/S and T/S?
If not you should be learning that first.  _________________ www.Crawlinbc.com |

NNoxx, get a video of yourself trying and post it here if you can. It's hard to say what you should do. A backroll is definately the easiest roll to learn. The Tantrum and Backroll are the easiest 2 inverts to land. If you are comfortable with trampoline backflips you will have ease with the tantrum as long as you can get the tripping motion. _________________ You have just entered the twilight zone. |
