I'm lookin to go for a TS invert, which is easier a straight up front roll or a scarecrow?

either a scarecrow or a ts backroll/ts backroll to revert. i learned the ts backroll to revert as my first toeside invert...just lean back off the top of the wake to throw it and hold onto the handle all the way through the trick to pull it to revert. the scarecrow is a common trick people want to do, so search around on how to do that...there's some good step-by-step posts taht will help you.

yeah ts backrolls are a good one to learn. its a little tricky getting the right pop when you are first starting to try them but they are fun once you get the hang of em.

Anything but a frontroll! Theyre so evil because theyre easy to rotate so youll probably rotate 90% your first or second try and think youre close but then you get stuck there and its nearly impossible to actually land. (Ive tried over 100 and landed on my butt EVERY TIME, never rode away)

I would say to go for a backroll or front roll. I learned the scarecrow first and developed bad habits making it really difficult for me to learn a frontroll later on. If you learn a front roll, the crow will most likely come a lot quicker than vice versa. The landings on the roll2revert and the crow are easier because you land with your chest open to the boat - that's why a lot of people learn those first....

good luck
