which invert should i try first, a tantrum or a backroll? i can clear the wake easy and land way in the flats. keep in mind i have a very small wake

i say backroll i did tryed for my first time this week at camp only bad thing is i cut my cheek while doin it so now every time i try i dont commit adn land on my head. but backrolls are super easy ass long as you hold your edge throwhips and put your right ear to your shoulder and look up

it just depends on the rider, if u can do like backflips on a tramp or w.e then thats the same rotation as a tantrum, and i think for most ppl tantrums are the easiest behind smaller wakes, i think a backroll behind a bigger wake might be easier because u can have more time to spin and spot, but u should probably try both

I personally learned the tantrum first. Its a really easy trick once you learn it and you dont have to do much work cuz the wake trips you up into the air and the rotation. My friend learned a backroll first and then a tantrum and said the tantrum is way easier!

I say go for the tantrum because 1) I find the falls the be softer as your learning it and 2) it is easier to spot your landing and your not flipping as fast as a backroll--- also once you get the idea of the motion of a tantrum its really easy to stomp it.

Rummy, and where in any of these post did he say he didnt have a tower. wtf does it make a difference anyway, tower or not? you only start to really need a tower when your gettin pulled down by the low tow point, dont post when you dont know sh1t.

Remeber when I agreed to try everyone else's advice because I will admit when I think I might be wrong?

Remeber every single time you ever gave advice? Remember how much it sucked? Remember how often you got roasted? I do. Neutral

EDIT: Are you going to argue my point? I dare you to try and say I'm wrong.
