  1. You will 1st need to find which way you are most comfortable with to your left or your right. Most people have there outside foot away from the wall so as not to clip your pedal off the wall, but it doesn't matter i do sidehops with my driving foot next to the wall, then just work your way up bigger walls starting with a comfortable size for learning the technique on. I hope that gave you some help !! Adam
