i always spin to the right (throwing my left arm) when im on the tramp doing truckdrivers , mistys, spins and shit. but when im skiing and going of ramps i always spin to the left! why? i know this is a pointledd thread and you guys are going to find some sort of way to make sarcastic comments but i dont fucking care +k to whoever helps me out ps im new to freestyle skiing fron racing so i span to the right all summer on the tramp and today i watched an edit i was in last year and im spinning to the right . i also feel it would be less sketchy spinning to the left on snow except for inverts..

It all comes down to stance. Depending on where you apply pressure on your body, your stance and the force/speed of the situation are all variables as to why you might spin the other way. It could just be that since the ankles are not locked up in a boot, it gives you a different sort of balance as to when to are ski. I know this. I have studied this for years. Wrong balance can be so simple, and can put you off. If you try find the exact balance you have on a tramp, and then apply it to your skiing you could start spinning left, which would be a bonus when your skiing because you could then spin both ways. You could do this by maybe getting some ankle weights and try tramping with them. Keep progressing
