I naturally spin to the left (to the left) but lately I've been trying to spin to the right more often to get used to it.

Lol that people don't believe me. I seriously can't decide which way is easier for me. I can do 1080's both ways on the tramp and neither way is easier or harder.

Maggie Voisin, the girl who won the qualifications in dew tour the other day. She did both right and leftside 9 on the last jumps.

She's got some style too.

But our switch 2s are easier. Too bad I slide left, spin left, but spin switch right.. Guess I should just learn 4s on

I can throw right or left and land spins but I prefer right. I can land right spins more cleanly.

haha, i spin left and slide lefty forward, when 270s were the new/hottest thing in skiing, i was like



oh but i think it's worth noting that, at least for me, spinning into something makes it easier to slide unnattyy

oh and OP like 90% of people spin left naturally

Yeah I spin left and put my left foot forward, so much easier, but then my switch 2's were really hard.

thats because the tramp is a whole different world, I can do basically every single flip up to 9 on the tramp both ways, but you'd be damned to see me do a right 5 on skis, once you're on snow what is natural for you becomes clear.
