Hey
Most people learn to duckjibe before they nail 70% of regular jibes.
Lots of sailors who barely waterstart have fallen off their boards, kept their sails up, and got back on while still moving.
Vulcans and forwards are violent, preplanned dynamic tricks that go against everything you learned.
I'd say a jump jibe is the easiest to learn, even tho you didn't list it.
Any no cammed sail that is lightweight and durable.

Freestyle moves like upwind/downwind 360, body drag, duck jibe, planing tack, front to back, and back to back are about the easiest from my perspective. But, there's lots more to do. There's a list on http://mytrims.com/forum/ I think its a page called mymoves or something to that effect. Its been ages since I've checked that site. Good luck and keep sailing.
