Torch is the "best".

FAT might be better for beginners (Atomics/Fleet/etc).

Concentrate on floor tricks first. Good basics.

- Forward
- Switch
- Backwards

Then

- 180
- Backwards Revert
- 360

That's what I think.

What are some of your suggestions for backwards because me and a few friends have been playing around with it for a few days and haven't yet figured it out

Stand facing a wall with a smooth floor behind you (smooth, not slick)
Get into the heeling position, on your wheels.
Carefully push off the wall and send yourself backwards

Just like Heeling, start slow and concentrate on foot position. Go further and further. Don't let your feet get all squirrelly.

Practice a few times a day. You'll get it in a week.
