I can Vulcan and Spock on port tack but not starboard. I am the same feel it should be easier on starboard but I struggle popping board on starboard, too much jumping only on port!!
someone that can do them told me best to try doing the flaka on the preferred side so port.

sorry doesn’t really answer your question but also interested to hear responses.


Sounds like we have the same problem… maybe I should start re-learning the Vulcan on my bad side first and that could make everything else easier🤪 it’s so easy to get fixed on one side and completely forget to train the other!
I will try as your mate said and just go for it on my preferred side then (feels more natural and is my favoured upwind 360 and helitack side).
Let me know if you have any glans break throughs!

Hi,
I am starting to get more consistent with my Vulcans on port tack and have finally landed my first few Spocks. Thinking my next move will be the Flaka... Im just wondering, do people generally find it easier to Flaka on the opposite tack to their Vulcan or on the same?
I feel like as the opposite tack gives the same direction of rotation then this would be the easiest to start learning on.
Any other top Flaka tips that people found were helpful would be much appreciated :)
