Front 2 or Back 2

One of my friends asked me what's easier to try a front or back 2. I told him back 2 because I naturally spin left, and now I'm wondering what other people think is easier because I know that some people find back 2s scary because of the way you spin.

front 2, it involves needing some control on the rail and to be able to change you momentum but it is the least risky trick to do on a rail, you see the landing the whole time.

Do you find it easier to do the rotation for front or back? I'm just curious.

Front is objectively easier. Typically, back 2 looks better but some people have nicer front 2s, but I feel that's relatively rare. If someone has both a good front & back 2 than they have won skiing.
