front flip. loops are not easy. loops are basicly a harder version of a front flip. front flip first. you are gonna need a big jump.have your hands over your head when going towards the jump. as you are going off the lip, throw your hands forward and tuck your whole body, especially your chin (point it into your chest). you are gonna be landing blind so test the jump to see how much are you will get.

Why would you want to front flip?

Theyre hard (youre blind most of the trick), look really bad unless theyre huge, and nobody throws them very much anymore.

Go with a lincoln, theyre not hard at all to get around, and you can spot your landing the whole time, youre never blind

if your gonna do a frontflip, don't forget to pop and then throw, or your gonna just fall down the backside of the jump.

fronts are easier, if you can do them off a trampoline you can do them easier on skis

I'd go for the lincon, fronts are blind making them harder. jsut pick a spot when you go off and keep looking at it till you need to spot your landing. this will keep you from turning

DS9120etc has it, lincolns can lead into such better stuff, namely rodeos. and rodeos look good and are one of the most fun tricks

front's are cool if your in Jackson Hole and there is 3 feet of fresh, then its front flip time all the time....otherwise do lincolns, you'll be able to spot easier and flip faster
