I am also the same =. Left foot forward, and hop left... but it is "wrong". I know i have clipped feet/pedals. Also im unable to hop up to pedal at all. Being able to hope both ways is a fantastic thing in comps, but on street going to your back foot, you will be able to tuck easier and as such should be able to get higher. i know im trying to learn how to go the right way now, but it does feel different.
