Skate Life

I can't turn Clockwise.

I'm not sure i kinda normaly just do a few laps in the morning if i can't sleep, i.e. I was up all night on this damn PC. well I am able to A frame turn ok counter clockwise, but i can't seem to do the same clockwise, actualy anything in that direction is kinda not as easy as the other way.
I guess it feels like being right handed my left side kinda becomes redundent.

anyhow i just wanted to know if this was common for people to find doing things one direction easyer then the other.
So far i haven't been able to turn clockwise yet.

i'm the same way and yes one way is usually easier...you just have to work at it i can 720 my natural way but i can only 360 my unnatural cause i just started working on it...but you sir are not exception. now don't get discouraged cause there are people out there that can spin both ways no prob (which is witchcraft to me but whatever) just work at it and you'll start to get it

it's like i'm half a person, the other half is a useless peon n kinda keeps my working side from doing all da fun stuff.

right handed hear i can turn both ways but usually do counter clockwise because its easier. even coming off my grinds i tend to spin counter clockwise
