I’m kind of an oddball when it comes to the learning curve. Early on I spent all of my time learning frontstyle, mainly because way back then I had a frustrating time landing double or nothing and it’s variations. Recently I have become more adept to sidestyle, but it has been very 2D, i.e. Most originated from sidestyle mach 5, working on a vertical plane than a horizontal plane like with Spoiled Panties. Can someone suggest any simple horizontal sidestyle tricks outside of the standard trick list? ---

> [@Q](#): > > Cut your hair you hippy. Maybe you should focus on trying to reply something constructive instead of being a joey and cheesin criticizing somebody who actually replied something trying to be constructive. Wow bro. Anyways. I echo what mista8 said, learn more basic mounts and try even making up some new mounts and see what seems to flow naturally from said mounts. Good luck. J ---

If you know how, you can learn mounts really quickly. It took me about an hour to learn each mount. I can’t explain it as it is rather hard by text, but keep in mind the whole thing is repetition.
