How much harder is a double lincoln than a double front?

I hate frontflips of all kinds, you're always blind which ruins comfortability in the air for me. Double lincolns by far.

i would guess dub front just because i see so many more of them in edits and clips and ive only seen a few dub lincolns on skis...and it also seems that its way easier to start spinning off axis doing the lincoln...tramp might be different though

Im the exact opposite. I feel more blind backflipping, and find frontflips WAY easier.

I hate frontflips with a passion. I mean they are cool to watch but I hate doing them. So much better flipping backwards than frontwards.

on tramp, dub lincoln is really easy to land cause you can spot your landing but with dub front you cant so if have to come back straight at the right time.

Exactly how I feel. For some reason backflips just scare the shit outta me

I was just trying both of these the other day. I found dub fronts easier to throw, but way harder to spot your landing (got it). Dub lincoln was harder for me to throw (didn't get it) but easier to spot.

id say dub lincoln is a little bit easier on a tramp once you get how to throw it right...there scarier to try but easier to land....dub fronts are weird

thats not true at allll, dub lincolns are easier on tramp because you can spot them, unlike fronts. on skis though, id say that dub linclons are much harder and more dangerous, because if you under rotate youll land on your ribs rather than the tails of your skis or your ass

personally, they are significantly easier, dub fronts are a blur, dub lincons feel way floatier and more natural

Since I haven't done either on skis just tramps I'm probably not in a place to talk, but I would imagine dub lincons are harder just because I feel like keeping your momentum going that way requires you to throw it a lot harder than keeping tucked for a double
