Its pritty much about getting used to the basics on your other side, and then building up

I thought that might be it. Also, what I forgot to mention is that one side might have something that the other doesn'ty have.

left foot= very weak kick, great setup (in the end, I can only sideswipe because my setup is good enough)

right foot= strong kick, not good setup (in the end, I can 540 but the movement is week because I'm doing a cheat setup on my other side.)

[Andy R]

its basically like you are starting over, except you know the technique, so its making your body have control on that side so you can do what you want

[Masterj123456789]

awsome! I will try this out tomorrow. :good:

The reason most girls "throw like a girl" is because they aren't used to the motion used in throwing, even with their dominate hand.

Boys more times than not are throwing things and grow up with this basic knowledge. When you begin learning to throw with your other hand, you throw exactly "like a girl" because like girls, you just lack the practice of that motor skill.

Ambidexterity is a skill and can be learned. I can write with both hands

[Swartz]

Asking how to trick on the other side is like asking how to trick, only more stupid because you've already learned how to do it one side.

Its feels so hard to do because my left kick is so weak and I feel like it wont get stronger. I might just have to do some exceriseces to bring up the strength in my left leg.

I wonder how long it toke juji to trick on his other side? Or was he just gifted? lolz

I wasn't asking how to trick on my other side. I was asking for tips. Things like this annoys me beacvuse you just want to start something. If you don't have anything to say regarding the thread (I mean only positive talk) then go to another thread.

it's not strength, it's just working with it. You have to get used to the motions.

Swartz also has a bit of a point here. Just said it more harshly.

It's just practice

he always says it harshly. I only understand people who get to the point nicely without saying that someone is stupid. (or any form of negativity) I understood your post and I respond nicely. If someone post something negatively toward me I will be the same way toward them.

once I get used to the motions I will be spamming the 540 in all my combos. lolz

Freaking exactly.


For the love of God what kind of topic is this...

[Swartz]

Just shut up Masterj123456789 and good luck.

[Ambitrixterous]

I finally know why i couldn't do a 540 this whole time. It is because I had forgotten that I 540 on the same leg that I c7 with.

Nope.


Are their any tips as to tricking on your other side? This would really benefit me. Thanks in advance!

Elim's got it. It's just a brand new game, practice makes perfect. As far as I know, nobody's brain is wired to learn on one side & get the other in the same package, I for one consider myself to have more tricks & combos on both sides than anybody else period and I've had to learn every single one by itself, one by one. A Btwist right might as well be a cheat7 left as far as I'm concerned (although of course those two movements have distinctly different pieces) but you should get the point. Practice what you want on the other side, in order, pre-reqs first!

[Flowers]

Yes, Aside from the fact that your basic motor skills are already worked on one side, learning a trick for the first time will be just as simple as learning it your opposite side.

[TKD_Andy]

i can do a few tricks on both sides:

btwist, 540, 540hook, 720, bs9, raiz, wallflip, 360, fei long, double leg.. errrm i dont think theres any others.

id love to do more ambidex stuff, its just so time consuming and i dont have the opportunities any more to trick as much.

the kind where i'm asking for information.

Your seriously trying to hard and it won't bother me. your like Simon only he is really trying, to hard, to get me upset. If you don't like talking and you always got something negative to say then forget you. I'll just ignore you. Idl people who always are putting me down when all I'm asking for is information.

I love amidex stuff. Esp. when juji pulls it off beacuse sometimes, you don't even notice. lolz:tongue:

Asking how to trick on the other side is like asking how to trick, only more stupid because you've already learned how to do it one side.

Agreed!

You learn how to trick with practice, same goes for the other direction. But also some agreement with Towels. It will take more practice, unless you are used to kick or flip on both sides.

I don't agree with swartz at all.

1. learning how to trick on your other side is not like how to trick all over again.(go to bottom) most people are not ambidextrous and because of this it would take harder to learn how to do things on the other side. Like , for instance, I write with my right hand. It was not hard learning how to hold the pencil, just hard learning how to write the letters. If I try to write with my left hand, holding the pencil would feel weird, write would be much more strenuous, and I would not be able to write one letter.

Now let me give you a better example. I picked up on some moves in tricking because, I did other spots that were like said move, and I did everyday things that would help me with certain motions. Because I don't use my other side for anything such as, playing soccer, skateboarding, or snowboarding its hard to learn tricking on a side that you don't use for anything else.

2. I was asking for info, (meaning I was asking for maybe, an experience.) I thought someone had to learn how to trick on their other side as well an would have some suggestions like:

get more strength
try normal kicks on your other side
etc.etc

This would help me to train my other side so it does not feel as weird. Funny thing is that towels said I should train that side more. Thats the type of post that is a positive one an something I was looking for. Swartz was just being mean when he posted because he probably has no problem with this. (even though I have never seen him do a opposite sided move ever) Swartz tends to always give me means posts when I'm asking for information.

The way I view things is, "if the thread is genuinely not of interest to you or doesn't make sense , then you should not post, beacuse your just going to give negative feed back. The only time you post negative feed back is when the person:

1. threatens TT forum (like that 13 year old kid who said that he was going to take down tt lololz)

2. gives wrong information and even when the person (who is correct) tries to explain the right information to you, they don't take the information and still go on their way.

3.posts something non tricking related in the wrong forum

edit:it like learning how to trick on a side that has never been used in sports. Your kick aren't as powerful, you don't as much speed, and you lose balance easier. When I started tricking, I didn't have the same problem that I'm having with my other side. In that case, I wouldn't have made this thread, Instead I would be outside trying to get a c7 on my other side.

It's not atall hard. Swartz is right!

I learnt opposite axe aerials in about 30 minutes... i can't even opposite aerial. Just practise using the same technique you use for your right side.

wow, you picked it up that easily! I guess swartz make sense, it just hard to get the felling of tricks on the opposite side (I am going to guess that this is because I never tried it that often as I do with my other side.) MUST TRY AMIDEX MOVE TODAY!!!!

[jiayo-chris]

Yeah seriously think of every aspect of it and copy the technique exactly on the other side, and you should be able to do it. I am trying to learn opposite cheat 1080's but spinning that much on my wrong side has always been a weakness of mine :sad:.

you will get the trick. Its just a matter of time.:wink:

I remember you killing the cheat10 in that bilang sampler!:smile: That was awesome. (I wish I could cheat but the closest I get to is a bs10)

as far as the copying of every aspect of the trick, I wrote it down so I don't forget. (I going out to trick in a couple of mins.)

[jiayo-chris]

Awesome, update us with your progress :good:.

[Masterj123456789]

Awesome, update us with your progress :good:.

I landed one! (a 540 on my other side) Now I put it in my sampler. Just a couple more things to do and I will be done.

[eddy wang]

I use to have some tricks in the incorfotable side, until i met kjer and ask me to do a sampler, this makes me build up my original triciking side, the clock wise.

[k-slash]

Masterj asks intelligent questions.

[BoredArnold]

what helped me was
1) record yourself.
2) edit the clip so it plays it mirrored.
3) replay the mirrored version and copy that exact motion. ROFL.

or you could just record your mirrored image via mirror.

VISUALIZATION IS KEY!!!!
for me atleast :P

[stefanuz]

no offence but this thread IS stupid. learning moves on the other side will be easy for some but hard for others that's just the way it is. And really what kind of tips can you really get from this question? It is exactly like if you had asked about tips on how to trick on your right side. Only different thing is that the movement will feel more awkward(dunno how it's spelled) for most people, but you should already know the technique of the tricks very well since you already can do them on one side. you just have to copy that technique and start practising the most basic moves and go on from there. But this you should already know, and i can't really come up with anything else you can actually get out of this thread, so i have to agree with swartz, although he maybe was a bit harsh, but if too many of this kinda threads pop up, people will get pissed :tongue: but yeah, best of luck learning ;)
