Well you'll have to spin out of and onto rails different ways, also if you plan to be in some competitions spinning unnatural will help you earn a better score, so yeah i think you should work on it.

If u look at the x games there dubs are both right and the left. The people that don't spin both eats normally don't win. For jr comps I'm not sure if it's that big if of a deal

If your just skiing do what ever you want, but when I see somebody skiing a jump line switching spinning directions it is way more impressive then if a kid went and landed a dub.
