First go, it's true, but you can overcome this if you concentrate hard enough. :)

Yes, you can overcome it, but your natural tendency is to switch. If making counter clockwise circles you should not switch drawing a 6

I can do it, no problem. Don't even have to think about it.

Does this mean I'm messed up somehow? :)

Easy to do, not a problem..



But as I'm really left handed I thought I'd try it with the left hand /left foot....Not a hope...the foot follows the hand, unless real concentration is applied, which defeats the object anyway...

I too had no problem. I guess I'm defective SmileWavy

mine is in a cast

Unlike most people I start my 6's not from the top but at the circle part and end at the top. I tried to turn my foot clockwise and had no problem. So I started my six at the top and finished in the circle where I usually start and thats where my foot changed direction.
Try it.

this sounds like a fun thing to do while driving :)

Where would I put my coffee, cell phone, and margarita maker?

Any drummer should be able to do this. Limb independence can be learned.
