Corks are the easiest, because that's just a natural way to get off axis. I suggest you start there.

My first was bio 5's. They where so easy for me, I didn't even know I was throwing them. So my vote would be for bio.

cork for sure. all you have to do is start carving off the lip and maybe look down over your shoulder a bit more... and voila! you've got yourself a corked spin.

cork 7's are probably the easiest thing to start off with. cork 3's and 5's are easier once you get the cork 7 down.

i would suggest learning them on a tramp first - try everything on the tramp and watever feels most comfortabl, do that one on skis first, then do all the others...
