I learnt to swirl (reverse) bu doing peaktime Toeset same butterfly rev. swirl.
Now I can also do them far and ss, and have hit the b2b.
I still can't do a normal swirl.

Reverse Swirl all the way!

At one point I could do Swirls, but never caught on to the reverse variant. Then one day in a DQ parking lot I forced myself to learn Reverse Swirls, then somehow lost my Swirl (normal Swirl) touch. Ever since, normal Swirls have been hard as hell and my REv. Swirls kicked ass.

I'm so much more closer to Revstein then I am Ripstein.

I wonder if your opinion on this matter is influenced by the fact that the water swirls the opposite direction in your country...

I learnt Swirl first on my right side, and a Reverse one on my left side... But i feel with left-side-rev.swirl much more comfortable. However... I must school my rev. swirls on right side and regular swirls on left side...
