my first season i pretty much enjoyed wathcing others, i was doing switch 180's for a year! then next year i started to test out things. weird thing was, first two months or something i had my natural spinning dir to the right, and one day i wanted to try unat and i never stopped doing it! i had started of spinning unat whitout knowing it, im dumb! so actually i stopped spinning unat and started spinning nat. and i didn't try ok sized rails before this summer, 2 and a half year after.
