what is the easiest grab for a healside backroll? im 6'4'' so its kinda a reach to get to my board for this trick, last night i was trying to grab stalefish (back hand behind back foot) but just couldnt reach because i get really extended on my rolls. Any help would be appreciated

There is no easiest grab, its just whatever feels the most natural to you will be the easiest for you. I grab nose on my back rolls. One thing that may help you is to approach the trick with your knees more bent than normal, if you are a little more tucked up it will be easier to grab. Other than that just keep working on it, you will get it!
