Hey I'm just wondering if this is just how I progress or if its true for everyone els. Whenever I practice hang ten nose wheelies or nose manuals or other wheelie tricks I will practice them for awhile and feel like I have only progressed a bit but when I practice 50-50 related tricks or sometimes rail I seem to progress a lot more with those.

If that's what you progress quickly with, then do that sort of stuff a lot! There's no problem with specializing in certain categories of tricks, don't be close minded, but better good at one thing than half assed at a hundred.

The things your bad at will get better gradually and with time, especially with stuff like hang ten wheelies.

I wouldn't think of this as that different. I definitely have certain tricks that I progress easier at or have more of. What you're not so good at may even change over time. I once thought I wasn't that good at truck to truck tricks but now some of the hardest tricks I can do are truck to trucks.

ok just wanted to see if its normal for wheelie related tricks to be harder guess I'm just more specialized with 50-50 tricks

It's much easier to see progression on rail/50-50/etc. type of tricks because, well, once you've landed it you've landed it. But once you've landed a hang ten nose wheelie, you have to go back and hold it longer. Learning isn't always linear.
