Hi
I'm UK based, and am currently starting to add twisting to my tumbling passes. I cartwheel and round off on my left (foot forward), but my natural twisting direction appears to be right (full twist jump on floor, swivel hips etc). According to other people on the internet a left round-off is a right twist, but sets you up for a left twist next move. My coach has said I should either change my twisting direction or my round-off leg. My question is whether i really need to do this, and if so which one would be best to change? I have also noticed that when trying to do a full twisting front I seem to untwist in the second part!
Any help appreciated
thanks!
