Your Hardest Flipside Components
Your Hardest Flipside Components
List the components you had the hardest time learning on your flipside. I'm most interested in the components that feel extremely awkward and/or scary. Try to keep the list short.

Mostly the things that are restricted due to injury, otherwise I try so hard to be bothsided that if something is just too hard, I won't even do it goodside, even if it is super easy on good.
Atomic
Eggbeater
Rev swirl
Pixie (probably my WEAKEST thing...and my goodside is awesome, but I never do it because my flip is so bad)
I think pretty much everything else is almost actually bothsided, or close enough that it doesn't make too much difference. Well, I can't do "goodside" double downs anymore, but that's injury-related and I just don't do the flip, resultantly...

Swirls
I can hit sailing butterfly swirl with my weak sailing set, but struggle to hit normal swirl on the other side
I went through a stage where I drilled them heaps but I guess I lost interest. Like Erik, the fact that I can't do them on one side is why I very rarely hit them on the other side - especially in public.

No, I don't play soccer. Yes, there are competitions. 4 years. Lots of practice.
