Instead of doing it like a cartwheel oh a Heelside br its like throwing your head to you feet like a front roll almost. If you do them mexi style then indy would be your grab of choice.

i do mexi, and it makes you pretty heavy dependant on ure front arm, so indy could work!

nose, probably, though never been able to grab mine...side question: is a method r-2-r somewhat of a mis-name? you're not really doing a method...

similiar to what brian said, i don't think method is an actual grab. i could be mistaken, but i thought the term "method" implied a melon grab with a backside air. so it would be a melon r2r, not a method r2r?

The only grab I have been able to pull on my BR is a lein I guess. Now if I could just put together landing it and grabbing it at the same time!

Right from the start, that way you'll have more grabbage time equalling more style

Roast Beef is grabbing between your feet on the heelside of the board, but through your legs, I think it is with your right hand if you ride left foot forward, but I am not sure. I vote for the nose grab with the poke, a la Shane Bonifay.

if your doing a regular backroll do a nosegrab, if your doing a mexican backroll do an indy with it.
