@revbob4him Hey,
I like toe pulls better for beginners, because the counter-action (once you go too far) is dead simple. Just push like hell through your finger-tips.
Even if you completely over-do the initial pull of off the wall, at the very least you'll feel your fall slow down as you try to correct -->
some success (in establishing balance) is almost assured, and can then be built upon.
Whereas with a heel-pull you have the problem that overdoing it means falling to the heel-side of the hand, with
no easy counter-action --> complete failure is possible/likely, no learning progress achieved :-(.
Cheers,
Michael
