| I can't tell the difference between them. The tantrum is supposed to be easier. Can anyone tell me in a different way than every other site was told me how to do both of them? |

I wouldn't say the tantrum is easier.
tantrum = backflip
backroll = cartwheel |

will do. i can pretty consistently go wake to wake or used to be able to i've only been out once this year, behind a pon toon boat. Luckily for me wednesday-sunday i will be wakeboarding everyday. So i have plenty of time. And i know a couple spots that arn't to busy during the day and early morning/late night. So does anyone have any tips on these as well as for a raley. I'm hoping to dial in atleast one aerial this week. I can snowboard and am pretty good or i think i am meaning, i have the rotations and such for the aerials as well as the confidence. Plus i've been snowboarding for liek 5 years now. _________________ What it do |

LFADAM, well if you ride regular then you're doing a cartwheel to the right but moving to the left soooo there's really nothing backwards about it..... Lol, just joshing with you. I agree with LFADAM though, I think backrolls are easier.
HS Backroll: wait for the pop, throw your head towards your back shoulder, then look over your lead shoulder to spot the landing, bend your knees to prepare for the landing, land it. |

what does everyone think the easiest flip/ rotation or most bad a looking trick is for an intermediate-advanced rider. _________________ What it do |

what? i think backrolls are easier than tantrums. i think tantrums look better than backrolls. but i think that backrolls are also easier to put variations on. i really like the look of roll to reverts, for example. |
