Which one is easier to start with? I heard most people try invert b4 spin, but I think spins are easier. I want to hear from you guys out there...

Most people try either an invert or a spin first.....and end up landing the other after giving up on the first...

work on spins first. they are harder but you will be a better rider aftr you learn a 3. A backroll is easier than a 3 but people who actually ride will be impressed if you can spin. inverts will impress your dorky friends that don't ride.

spin it to win it! Cool

I learned a spin before my first invert.
I tried to keep it even as I progressed. I started with a hs bs 360, tantrum, hs fs 360, backroll, ts fs 360.

intotheflats, ur totally right, plus, the longer u know how to do them, the more stylish u can be. HS FS 3's were my first trick that i would consider intermediate, and now, my friends say that I have the best looking three's they've seen.

goinbig143, I do that too, and i keep the HS/TS even too, so that i can do a lot of tricks in a row without a wake jump.

intotheflats, yea youre pretty much right on. spinning is harder and takes more skill, and real riders do appreciate it more.
