Think it's better to learn to land jumps switch before learning 180's?

Before you try and land switch, you should ride switch just as well as you can regular.
When I coached, i would literally force my students to ride switch as fast as possible, with the most control as possible. on moderately difficult conditions.
Put it this way, if you were to do a backside 180, where your landing is completely blind, you must be 100% confident in your switch riding, because then you'd be able to ride out of anything that comes up your way.
