No. The axial vector representing the angular momentum can point in any direction in three-space. There are an infinity of different choices.

There must be a preference one way or the other established.

A figure skater can spin faster, but must spin first in a chosen direction. I say this is no random act, but a choreographed display.

The figure skater is equally capable of spinning in either direction.
