Any help on these would be muchly appreciated. i can do the late version but for some reason can't spin and flip simultaniously (spl).

Also any tips on a heelside frontflip to switch would be nice?

Hey, I cant do them but it looks like nobody has responded yet, Ive heard from riders who can that to do the early pass you have to do a mexican backroll. (HS frontroll-ish) Hope that helps. No idea on the front to fakie.

If you are having trouble with the spin/flip beginning of the move, you might want to put more energy into your handle pass. R2B'S and kgb's are muscle tricks, they take a good effort to pull in the handle pass.

Combine the mexican style roll and the sort of loaded 2 handed jerk right off the wake in to the handle on your way up. To have the minimum amount of tension to make the pass easier, on your cut in just point your board at the wake and let the boat edge you in, stand tall hard at the wake to get the necessary pop.
