Frontflip or Backflip?

i can backflip so much easier than front on a tramp but on snow i learned frontflips first they are pretty risk free... just try it out of a quarter pipe to start with. cock back then huck forwards at the lip and load up pressure on the front of your skis... follow through and you will pop off your skis tuck up and it will come around. all the while coming less than a foot off the ground. get comfortable then move it up to bigger stuff
 
I learned frontflips on a 4 foot jump in my backyard

Bottom line frontflips are harder but less scary. When i try backflips i think im gonna go for a side boot on the landing of a jump or something like that
 
I am sorry but WHAT THE FUCK? backflips are ten times easier. when going off the jump physics puts your body already a quarter of the way there and momentum lets u just do it. In a frontflip u have to fight against momentum and have to do the whole 360 rotation if not more.
