On the trick tips section, it says that front flips are advanced tricks. How come thats the first invert i learned and I cant do the back roll on the easy section? Someone clear this up for me, lol! _________________ yeah Crownsville Air Force! |

Some riders are just more natural at different tricks. Backrolls are normally an easier trick for riders wanting to get their first invert. The trick tips are for riders as a whole. Some people can just do other tricks easier. |

I know a guy that can't even do hs w2w jumps and can land front flips way into the flats. Kinda makes me mad. _________________ Raley cut everything! |

I think hs backrolls are easier than hs 180's. Definitely easier than hs frontflips, good looking ones anyway. It comes down to what feels natural, and as you progress things get easier.
krashr31- do you mean ts w2w, b/c if not that is the strangest thing I have heard! |

No i mean HS W2W. His Dad was like an olympic trampolinist in the day and he has mad skill on a tramp and gymnastics stuff. Basically he had no skill riding a board but could land inverts(fronts, anyway) In Fact one of his fronts almost qualified as an s-bend _________________ Raley cut everything! |

A HS Front that looks almost like an s-bend would be one sloppy ass looking front.... power to him for pulling it off, I'm no style master either.
I agree that some people just find certain things easier like back in the day I could do HS 180's way before I was doing TS 180's. But as mentioned above as I got better things fell into place a lot faster.
like now I'm stuck in a rut I can do the HS 3 much better than the TS 3, what gives I thought the TS 3 was the easiest of all? I'm goofy like that also I guess. _________________ PEACE
