i can spin about equally left or right on cab takeoffs but i can only spin left on regular takeoffs. it's kinda weird.

yep, i spin 3's and 1's to the right but i spin switch 1's to the left, it's best to probably learn to spin both ways

Yea, i do that, so when i go up to hit a jump switch, i have to keep saying in my head

'spin to the left, the left, the left...OH SHIT!!!'

then i eat it

i used to roll in switch looking over my right shoulder, then right at the end i would spin left. eventualy i learned to look over my left, but now looking to the right is weird.

no its not unnatty cause its natural for you. The spin itself is unnatural but if you cant take off at all the other way then its natural. i dont really get that spinning is spinning doesnt matter switch or reg, just learn to get comfortable looking over the other shoulder

i never tried spinning off a jump switch, but i heard that you have to be patient and not spin while youre still on the jump
