Do you have a trick that is difficult for you to do even though you can do other tricks that are more advanced, harder, or scarier?

I struggle with blind 4s.

Lip 2s have tried to neuter me many a times. But i have to say my arch nemisis is the rodeo 7. I either pull a 9 or a knee to the face...

unnatural blind swap variations. if its a regular front switchup to blind switchup i have no problem, even a 2 on to unnaty blind swap isn't too bad, but hopping on a rail unnatural then doing a back swap just feels so wrong. i try to do all 8 at least once a season, but doing an unnatural blind swap pretzel even on a flat box always just feels so awkward and forced

switch unnatural stuff. I killed myself after i caught an edge on a switch unnat 180 attempt and took it straight to my hip and shoulder on ice. Since then, I haven't even attempted to do a switch unnat trick in the park. Fuck that shit.

Out of the 4 times I tried a switch 3 I can only land them spinning to my unnatural side and when I try to my natural side I just freeze up, maybe just practice.

since I can't do many ski tricks I'll do it with my tramp tricks.
BACKFLIP. i cant do it! I can frontflip, double frontflip, misty 7 & 9, cork 7 & 9 (which makes no sense), 3, 7, 9, a ton if grabs, etc. I can even almost rodeo but I can't do backflips

Oh this too, I'm thankfully over my fear of throwing stuff backwards but I still cant do a straight backflip. I throw back and lay them out all steezy, but they always end up corked out a bit

Lip tricks, especially lip 2 on to street rails are a struggle and then backflips just scare the hell out of me for some reason.

I'm not a big fan of the right side of the lip lol. This has fucked with me enough that I do right 2s(my unnatural spinning direction and unnatural foot. Suck at regular lip slides, only way I will go right foot forward immediately is unnatural lip slides. You would think lefts two would be easier since natural spinning and natural foot but they just give me a real hard time

2 on pretzel 2 off, it takes me about 10 tries to get one.

and blind 4's, even if I go big it ends up being a bling 3 to faceplant.

180 disaster on dfd... I can get it on a flat-down, but not the dfd

Also, backflips. They were no problem when I was younger, but I wrecked hard a few years ago and can't do them anymore.

It's funny how looking back on my new trick progression, I skipped some really important steps. 2 pretz 2 on flat box before 90ing on legt foot forward. Left 7s before I could ( still suck at ) right 3s.

Front grip with unnatural foot forward still is a struggle too.

I wish someone advised me to learn everything both ways. Guidance and coaching go a long way.
