So I think it's time to try my first inverted trick.

What trick would you reccomend?

Backflip Frontflip Lincoln, Flat, Underflip, Overflip, Rodeo, Cork, etc etc etc????
 
can you do 540's?

I learned cork 5's just by dipping my shoulder a bit more each time so it went from a wobble to a cork to an overcork 5. you can ease your way into them unlike say backflips, even though backflips are technically easier once you have them.
 
I think everyone's first invert should be a backflip. Just so you get over that initial fear. straight flips are super easy you just need to get the balls to try one. and backies are scarier at first but easy. frontflips are less scary to try until you realize you can't see the landing until you've over rotated.
 
i have friends that can underflip, but can't lincoln. for me i can lincoln, but not underflip. personally i'd say you should go for a lincoln so you get the feel for being inverted then go for a backy.
 
Noo lincolns are tricky, sometimes mine turn into rodeo 5s or something rather. Frontflips are super fun and easy IMO. Backflips aren't bad either. So I'd say front or backflip.
 
lol yah, if you do a backflip you can tell all ur gaper friends that u CAN do one.

i did frontflips first and i regreted it cause everyone expected me to backflip but i couldnt, until i learn't it and realized they ARE easier. u just gotta get over the initial fear. and not get stuck upside down
 
mine was cork 7, but i think everyones gonna have something that seems more natural to them.

backflip. backflip was my first. the only inverted tricks there are are really front back and lincoln though all other tricks are totaly inverted. frontflips still scare me but backs are solid and the gapers love em
 
by the way corks rodeos etc arent inverted flatspin is kind of depends on how you do it. but do back first for sure
 
Whatever you feel the best about trying, flips are 100% commitment, fo me i felt best about a switch frontie, so i did that as my first flip, neva seemed that scary to me but otheres thought it was whack.

But most likely you'll fel best about a straight frontflip. Just huck and tuck.
 
my first was lincolns cause i thought they were easier. Plus you never go blind so it wasn't as scary to me. just don't get twisted or your gonna get worked. But fronts and backs are probably easier. Whatever you feel most comfortable with. Try it on a tramp or pool first
 
Corks aren't inverted, they're off axis. Flats really are'nt inverted either. Mine was a front so do a front. Oh use poles the second time u try one.
