I like that it's even, but it sounds too laboured. Put some spring in the step, rhythmically.

Why is the LH trill so bad? The RH trill was pretty good! Brush your teeth with your LH for a while.

I thought over all it is defenitely on it's way to being pretty good. Go a bit faster but remain even would be my biggest advice and the left hand trill.


Awesom
For my whole life I've had an irrational fear of losing one arm, so I switch daily on what hand I use. My right hand is still better, but not by much. Throwing a ball is still hard with my left hand...
Just here to lurk and cringe at my old posts now.

I can throw much farther with my right than my left, but I can still throw quite far with my left. The footwork is an important and difficult aspect of it.

How is your juggling?

I can throw quite far with each and the footwork is there. It just feels awkward! Still!

I can juggle three quite easy, never tried more than that.
Now my feet are fully ambidextrous. I played soccer and was just as good left as right.
