Well if you need some trick help (with the exception of inverted tricks eg. misty flips) then just ask here.
I've been snowboarding for around 12 years and have a good chunk of trick experience.
Have fun!

Well crooked, to jump off a lip with big air....you have to get lots of speed, and don't chicken out....cuz then you'll lose balance and hurt yourself.
Btw....Ramprage...just asking if you're gonna post the snowboard trick tips I sent you in the future snowboard trick tips section.

You need speed! Keep your legs bent, once you get close to the top of the lip then spring off your tail for extra height. Make sure you don't lean back to much or you'll end up flat on your back.

Gaps, well just get lots of speed so you get distance, try not to get to much height or you'll end up snapping your deck on the rail. Keep yourself low, start a slow rotation and keep your kneeds bent and tucked up to your chest so they're sorta flexed.
As for backside 270 to boardslide I've never tried them and I'd imagine they're very hard because you're doing them blind.
Make sure to spot the rail so you know where you are in the rotation and to adjust for it so you don't kill yourself ;)'
Thx boarderman I've never done much inverted stuff. What's a good simple invert trick to start off with?

Well because I'm in Ontario and all the halfpipes from here to 2000 miles away are crap I would be doing inverts on regular kickers, table tops and quarter pipes.

Sorry i didnt ask before but do want to do flips or plants?

Flips flips flips... You can't really do handplants on a tabletop lol :)
So just like a misty flip, backflip, whatever is easy. I heard Misty flips are simple and you just have to turn your body and tuck yoru head down towards your tail..

Allright guys, here, in my opinion is the easiest flip trick, is how to do a back flip.
The very first thing you have to do is find a tabletop that has easy access (a tt where you dont have to turn much to get there so u dont lose any speed) and practise springing off the top of it untill you can jump the tt and get at least 6-8 feet of air and land comfortably. Then you can attempt the backflip. First pick up as much speed as you can get and crouch on your way up the incline when you reach the top spring up out of the crouch position and swing your arms up over your headand look back as far as you can. <-- Its very important you do these things as quickly as possible. When your looking back spot your landing and bring the rest of your body around. if you over-rotate extend your legs early and if you under-rotate keep your legs tucked longer. And finally when you land absorb and ride away smoothly.
Hope i was a help and if you get hurt im NOT taking liability
Thanx
