I’m finding rolling left is better (torque assisted) I’m able to get the nose right up that way but its good to work on both ways. There very hard rolling harriers low when you get in deep, the hardest thing ive ever tried to learn. Good thing to do on a windy day if to windy for torque rolling, its like a wind tunnel so u can refine ur skills without travelling forward.

Anywheres good where you don't upset old local blokes with their piper cubs who seem to have a problem with aeroplanes being used as helicopters. Its like hip-hop music to them they hate it...
