i roundoff left and spin right.
should i just keep going with it since it works for me? should i stop and learn the left roundoff and switch ASAP?

I personally learnt to spin the other side, but i can spin both sides fine so it wasn't an issue. My friend Sam learnt to round off the other way, i think this is probably the best thing to do :smile:. You don't have to though but you will not find it easy to do much more than a double full the way you do it at the moment .

andy ward does the same thing.
Its unorthodox, but it doesnt really matter if you're happy with it.

yeah it's the same with me, I r/o to my right and spin to the left. so far I didn't have any problems with it, but if I needed to adjust, learning to r/o on my left wouldn't be a huge problem though. :wink:

if you havent learnt to full already, then definately learn to roundoff the other way.

Learn to roundoff on both sides its not exactly hard lol.
You might as well learn to twist both ways too.

Holy crap that looks awesome ahahah who cares!
The only thing itll hurt is cart > "full" variations, since those actually require you to cheat a bit, so you'd be cheating in the wrong direction.
But carthweels/roundoffs on your opposite side are not that hard.

actually, that'd be kinda cool looking, to cart and then spin the opposite direction
with roundoff's its harder to tell because you're not cheating it, but with a cart you'd definitely be able to tell the twist is going in the opposite direction, if anyone can do this upload a vid, i bet it looks hella cool
