Yes i would consider myself a begginer, however, every time i go out, i get bored and allways want to try new things. i guess my question is, which trick should i focus on or is the easiest. I know this is way out of my league, but i really want to do a raley! Yes, i know im getting ahead of myself, but i just cant resist. what do you guys think?

p.s. i can do w2w and such, but i havnt really attempted too much else. now im not saying im going to go out ant do a raley or anything on my lext session, but when i feel comfortable, which should i focus on. thanks

well if w2w is your biggest trick right now, I wouldn't try a raley. That's kind of a big step up. If you want some easy stuff to work on. Try either a toe side 180 or a heelside 180. If those are too easy, try them blind. Work on some stuff in the flats such as powerslides. If you have a big enough wake and wanna try backrolls they aren't too bad and the crashes are harmless if you get 3/4 the way around. just remember progressive edge and turn the head over the lead shoulder. Hopefully that gives you some ideas (or maybe you can do all those already). Later

yea start with the fundomentals man whatever you do after you do a HS jump do a TS jump even if its little and not w2w get the feel for it. you can always pick up a copy of detention and just work on as many tricks as you can in the order that they come out. i remember doing that one day that i just copied trick for trick untill it passed my skill level then i started on newer ones
