I can land most inverts except for toeside raleys and hs frontflips. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what handle pass inverts are easier to start with, excluding roll to revert and tant to rev. any help appreciated.

What basic inverts are you best at?

Some of the easier handle-pass inverts would be tootsie roll, roll to blind, tantrum to blind/moby dick,....

....Also, when grabbing the board on my inverts i feel like the board is really hard to get to, i cut pretty hard and do all my tricks into the flat and it kinda feels like i'm getting too stretched in the air. any one have any ideas. i don't know if it's that i'm letting the rope out too much or not bring my knees up high enough????????

You cant help that. I dont know much about wakeboarding inverts but I do know that if you put water in a bucket and spin it over your head it wont fall out. Its called centrifical force. Think about it: you go up into the air and rotate really fast, its going t0o be relly hard to grab and tuck because the shear physics of the motion are going to want to stretch you out. Get it now? (no sarcasm intended)

Travis take the inverts wake to wake and make them as lofty as you can. The bigger you take them and the faster you rotate, the harder it will be to grab the board.

You need to grab the board the split second between when you leave the wake and you start the rotation of the trick. You delay the rotation a little but once you have grabbed your board you are balled up so you rotate quicker. That how I was taught and I think that is the simplest way I can explain it. I hope it helps you. Oh by the way, If you don't grab the board before rotating, forget about it, you will never get it. You have to commit to the grab first.
