front is most definitely easier. Just kick up one leg right before you pop, then pop and tuck.

Definitely a frontflip. They are pretty easy just make sure to lift up one foot then as you pop off the roller, kind of roll onto that foot and pop off of it.

Trick tip cult is definitely not dead though.

Yeah, basically you want to be able to roll into it.


This video explains it well.
