Changin Directions... - 09-14-2006, 01:13 PM

alomost everything goes CW with me..
but only backspin.. footwork.. and mills go CWW

I haven't started mills yet but I've always done
handglide freeze on left..

but I've been told its better to start learnin mills CW

so If I change I gotta change:
mills...
backspin..
Footwork..
hangglide freeze..

will this be a lot of work..?

I go CW also, someone should post guides, or atleast a windmill guide, for ppl that go CW. I'd do it, but I dont think im up for it... for the bashing. Nice 2 see someone else in here that goes ClockWise...

Footwork in my opinion is the hardest; getting it to be identical to your normal direction takes a while. I can do it fairly easy now, but its still kinda hard.

but I just can't get used to handglide freeze on my right hand..
let alone do a windmill collapse (that I can do on my left)

That is something you are suppose choose when you decide you are going to learn, which direction you are going to go that way from then on you learn all the moves in the same direction. I see alot of 1 year bboys who do windmills and footwork clockwise, but then I ask to see a swipe, and they do it counter-clockwise so they can't link them very well. It's good you caught your problem early and now you can begin to just learn everything clockwise, it's the way I go, except the past year or so I've been doing my six step counterclockwise because it just feels good, different, but good.

I go CW, 2. I used to be only one in our crew..this year i've made some CW followers . I think good bboy have to do footwork in both directions. Nowadayz I dunno which directon is better for me, I really don't mind goin to footwork CCW or CW. But millz are different I can do CW nutcrackerz, but I don't even hit one turn of CCW stabed mill. All other powers I'm doin' CW, 2. So I haven't this problem.
But another bboy from our crew goes CCW, but 1990 he do like CW (u know - u can spin 1990 in both directions on same hand).

So footwork isn't porblem, backspin isn't problem (I can do it CW and CCW 2, but I feel the CW direction is better) and learnin' CW millz gonna take some time...just forget CCW a learn CW

The first couple years I would do everything the clockwise, and very rarely ever switch that way I would just specialise in clockwise everything and gain as much speed/spin/momentum in one direction to make it sick, you know kind of over do it, like Ruen.
I didn't know Bruse Lee had good power both directions, but I bet Tuff Kid would kick his ass anyday.
