First of all, they are called a back full (360) and a back half (180)!!
A back full is obviously harder because you twist more. It took me a long time to learn a back full, but after knowing how to twist, it only took me 20 seconds to learn a front full. The hardest thing is learning how to twist!! Start with your arms up and then once you are in the air pull your arms to one shoulder (or one side of your body) to which ever side you are twisting toward, and also look that way.
A full back is harder to learn because it has more twist but it has a sighted landing while a half twisting back somi has a blind landing. Therefore you rarely see a half twisting straight back in a routine, it is mainly just learned as a progression towards a full.
