I skateboard goofy but snowboard regularMy experience with skateboarding is 15+ years but I've only snowboarded a couple timesIs that weird?
My best guess is you aren’t very good at either if you do this. Your stance is based on your dominant eye, it doesn’t change by sport.
>>186525i have a left dominant eye
>>186525fpbp
>>186526Then you’re regular, period, the end.
>>186544why have i been skateboarding comfortably in a goofy stance ever since i was a kid then
>>186525>tfw right eye dominant but orthodox/regular stance in everything
here is an interesting read on the matterhttps://www.jenkemmag.com/home/2017/10/12/determines-skate-stance/
>>186559Total horseshit. For starters, my right foot is my "stability foot" and I have always been regular.It's eye dominance. I'm left eye dominant so riding goofy feels "backwards" because my left eye is behind my nose when riding that direction and so feels less comfortable.OP probably has what I call "fucked stance" where the direction most natural to ride (clearly regular as snowboarding will typically be much faster than skateboarding) conflicts with the way he feels most comfortable doing tricks. I've had a couple friends that, for example, would prefer to ride goofy but pop nollie/regular. This is also why I don't worship nollie/switch tricks unless that person is demonstrably better fully regular/fakie because it just means they have a fucked up stance and that's what feels most comfortable to them.
>>186563>Total horseshitI am legally blind in my left eye yet skate and surf regular. So that theory is thrown out. And your friend .. was doing fakie ollies so you dismiss switch/nollie?
>>186563The majority of people are right eye dominant and the majority ride regular
Your stance is determined by which side of the car you sat on as a child
>>186563>I've had a couple friends that, for example, would prefer to ride goofy but pop nollie/regular.

>>186563You don't skate
>>186563not /xs/ related but is it true that if your dominant eye is not the same as your dominant hand you have no chance at competitive shooting?
>>186563>they have a fucked up stance and that's what feels most comfortable to themMany of the greatest athletes succeed despite their physical and technical limitations, such that they often add new techniques and pedagogy to their respective disciplines.
>>186604Regular is left eye dominant, idiot. Your dominant eye is literally the one that's in front while riding. There are more goofy footers than you realize and a lot of shitty regular foot riders because they're too stupid to realize they're going backwards.
>>186611>>186631Sounds like a couple of copers that always skate "switch" but can't do shit "regular".
>>186640I don't think so, I'm left eye dominant and right handed and fucking shred targets. I do prefer to close my left eye while shooting, though. IMO shooting is more about steadiness than anything. Depends on what shooting you're doing as well, though, clays and stationary targets are two different things.
>>186724thats not a thing retard
>>186724>digging deeper
>>186727It 100% is a thing, retard. I've known many people that basically exclusively skated switch when it was peak trendy and couldn't do shit regular.>>186735Seethe about it, tranny, you don't know shit.
>>186737why are you lying? >skated switch when it was peak trendywtf are you talking about retard. when was this?
>>186737You are really out of touch
>>186723>because they're too stupid to realize they're going backwardsI am not going backwards lol
