yeah 180s are easier. when just doing a straight ts w2w try to keep the handle on your hip. it won't try to untwist you. also make sure you try to edge upon landing. it will keep you from sliding out.

One other tip. On TS w2w it will make it much easier if you look at the shorline when you land.

Chad Chinners, true. If you look at the boat you will get untwisted.
