Hey it does have a reverse function but I don't use it during routines because it confuses me with beat juggling.

Nice to see people still getting into turntables!

I think you would benefit from deliberately learning/drilling basic skratch techniques, as the technique side is pretty sloppy ATM . Of course mixing, juggling and freestyling too, but good technique translates to them as well. Avoid crabbing and techniques that are not smooth yet, when performing stick to what you know well and know that works, but at the same time keep practicing in your bedroom to increase the amount you know/can do constantly.
A good forum for turntablists is skratchlounge.com (friendly people!).
