So im learning to 180 and I spin to my left but im left foot forward. how do I make it easier to 180 like that because trying to ride right foot forward is too uncomfortable.

Thanks

P.S. I didnt actually know what to look for in the threads so I dont know if theres already one explaining.

That's the normal way to spin if you're right foot forward

Yep, that's right. Spinning in the same direction of your front foot is known as a "goofy foot" or opposite 180 or 360.

One benefit of goofy-foot or opposite 360's is the ability to do a sick turndown-360.

Just spin the way you feel most comfortable. It's not easy, you just have to stick with it.
