Backflip or frontflip

[HannesNyholm]

Hello,

me and my friend have had an argument about wich is easier to do. If do not have experinece of flipping while skiing, is it easier to do a backflip or a frontflip?

I say backflip, BUT the front flip is easier to commit to but if you can do both the backy is easier because you can see the landing in 3/4 of the flip in the frontflip you are more or less blind till the landing

Back flip is easier if you already can backflip outside of skiing. But if you can’t do any flips front flip is easier to learn cause its not as scary and you can generally do it off a roller or smaller less kicky jump and landing on you back isn’t as bad as landing on your head

Backflip is easier to stomp, frontflip is easier to commit to IMO

Backflip is easier but when you learn frontflip its way more chill to do

Backie has a higher risk, but front flip your looking at your pants for most of it lol

I found frontflips easier to commit to when I started doing flips, but really they're about the same in my opinion, more time to spot landings on a backie but takes more commitment to throw.
