Messing up my learning - 09-18-2003, 01:13 AM

OK... As of right now I do handglides and mills CW, turtles and flares (well i wouldnt exactly call them flares but whatever lol) CCW. This is bad I think. Its the way they feel most natural though or else I would have started off learning them the other way. I stab with my right arm and can hold that pretty good one handed but left handed my balance is all off cause its not my dominant hand and i dont practice like that at all. I dont know, what do you guys think I should do? I really have no intention of learning many power moves right now. I dont think ill ever get flares because i dont really like power moves for some reason. I want to get mills and headspins and 90s though. Those three all go in the same direction. Turtles are kinda... weird. I havent ever seen anyone do great looking turtles and i dont think i would ever use them really. I do them sometimes but its just like ill do a turtle no toprock or nothing ill just be like hey turtles lets do it. Think I should just try doing everything CW? Relearn turtles and start learning flares CW? Just work on getting good turtles and flares they way they feel best and not worry about linking them? Like I said before i dont even practice flares ever. Its just not my style. I dont ever see myself doing lots of power but maybe I might in the future who knows. Tough call. What do you guys think? Anyone have/had a similar problem?

OMG. I have the same problem. I do my mills, flares, headspins, 90's, etc., CCW. But I do my turtles and crickets CW. WTF?! I've seen people bustin' some sick turtles out of a windmill, but since I'm goin' CW with my turtles it's impossible for me. The reason for going CW with my turtles/crickets is because I am more comfortable with my weight on my right hand (Right hand should go CW with crickets right?). I've tried turtles going the other way but it's really hard for me to shift my weight in the other direction. I end up putting all my weight on my right hand and can't recover.

Anyway, I think of anything I should relearn turtles. But I'll never get jackhammers on my left hand! Crap!

Also, my swipes are jacked too. Should I be going the same direction as my mills ? 'Cause I go CW with them too. I see people going into mils after swipes and that would also be impossible for me. Damn, I'm all screwed up.
