I first learned regular 270 on (spin natural, land unnatural). I've only recently learned switch 270 on and it feels kinda awkward. I feel its not that great looking of a trick either.

^Definitely natural spin. I can barely slide a box unnatural foot forward and 270 onto a box and sliding is as easy as sliding reg. foot forward.

i learned forward spin left land right foot forward first. it helps to get comfy sliding rails both ways first, landing and cleaning the rail will be much easier

switc 270 on. I still prefer switch 2sev because it's an open rotation he whole way, and I'm better at bs switchups with a switch 2sev on.

I learned regular 270 on first, and seeing as I still suck at switch 270 on, I'm going with regular for the second question too.

assuimng were not talking about urban style so ill with out a doubt saw switch and its def easier, you never loose sight of the rail or landing and since i spin left and slid right foot foreward i land natural on the raill and feel that i can lock on much much easier

same with a regular 2 on. Pop, set the spin, look at the rail as you spin, put down the feet.

and as for the question... reg 2 on, reg 2 on.

Learnd sw 2's first (land wrong foot) then sw right 2's (good foot forward), then reg 2's. I am more comfortable with reg, then sw, then sw right. I've been workin on right but it's really hard to unnatty spin wrong foot forward the rail.
