There are big differences in methods of practice and approaches in different traditions and schools.
As Element suggests above it is necessary to stick with one approach for enough time to see if it is a good fit for you as an individual, especially in how it relates to the core teachings.
The problem I see with not doing this, is that it would be easy to miss the essential features and get caught up with focusing on minor aspects.
Beginning with studying the Tripikata is a sound beginning and I can see how individual study could be enhanced by having some instruction from one of the Theravadian schools to aid understanding and beginning practice.
