Default Cable Tricks?

I've been Boarding for about a year now; I can ride switch easily I'm getting good air off my Ollie (including 180) and I've hit a few kickers :twisted: (landing about 60%!). I NEED to progress further. When I go to my local lake & I see a lot of the more senior guyz pulling spins, flips and raleys. I want to have a go at some of these but no one seems to be able to tell me the first tric I should try. I'm desperate to try and pull one of these moves off but don't know where to start? Which one is the easiest to try and where do I start in terms of positioning, aggression and technique?

duxx,,,
ready for inverts???
the tantum is fairly simple,, go out far as you can,,and come back into the wake heelside,,very agressivly,,pick up as much speed as you can,,2-3 feet before hitting the wake turn your board paralell to the wake,,when you feel the wake hit the board ,,turn loose your back hand,,and throw your head and chest straight back,,with a little practice and getting used to the trick you should complete the back flip and land,,but dont force it by trying to push off the wake,,just let it happen,,

Duxx,

Do you ride at Princes or Thorpe? There are a few guys at Princes who are throwing inverts with ease and have never bothered with 180's, grabs etc. IMO the easiest cable invert is the raley (but It hurt more than learning backroll) try this url for tips
