Default BS Pirouette

So i just recently learned the pirouette on my new OSD and I noticed, I always spin to my left. This makes sense as I am attempting to complete a 360 degree rotation in regular stance. However, this got me thinking, anyone ever try to spin a pirouette backside off their front foot or spin to the right? This seems much harder as the landing is blind, but im sure it is doable. Anyone do this regularly and with confidence? How about back foot pirouettes? Fakie or switch pirouettes?

Just started thinking of pirouette variations and was wondering if any of you throw these on a regular basis.

Peace,

G

I can't do it, but I've seen Mr Colton do it all four ways so it's doable but by a human who the laws of gravity apply i don't know.
