Let the wake and the board flip you. Don't just huck it. Which flip are you going to try?

All I can say is commit to it. Don't do anything half-assed.

andygreen12, well what tricks can you do right now? You're going to want atleast 180's hs and ts, and good edging before you start doing any inverts. But i guess you can't go wrong with just trying something right? Try a hs backroll, just let the wake roll you backwards, and give it 100%. Things hurt when you go 50%.

Things hurt more when you are not ready! LOL...

I love watching people not ready for inverts get worked over just so they can say, "I can land a HS backroll".

You will know when you are ready!

I go with the do it all the way type of comment. I'm prone to just throwing it half way to "see how it goes" and those always hurt the most. Try to throw it as hard and good as you can, if you over rotate, way to go, let up next time. But going half way will only result in a fall on your back, head or face and you'll probably have time to watch it come!

ALL or Nothing
