Stances

There are two kinds of normal. Depends what had you are. If your left handed then your right foot should be forward. If your right handed then you left should be forward. Choose whichever way you are more comfortable with.
If your left foot forward you are regular.
If your right foot forward you are goofy.. Good Luck!

I'm right handed and I skate with my right foot in front...

I'm a noob, so I don't know if this is a problem or not...?

No that is fine if it feels right. If it feels natural ride that way. I myself am a Right handed goofy.

I'm right handed and can ride regular, however, I ollie goofy. The main reason I ride regular is because i rode regular on scooters. Should I try to learn to ride goofy or learn to ollie regular?

hey...i may be a noob at this web but i've been skating for awhile...it's ok to ride regular and ollie goofy cause my friend is the same way but i told him that it's best to stick to one stance because it'll be hard to do alot of the tricks...for example, say like you wanna boardslide a rail that's low to not get nutted and high enough to do a small ollie...you would have to pedal regular and then ride switch to do that...what i told my friend was the best way to correct this is to skate in one stance...since you can ollie goofy, it's best to skate goofy...if you wanna go regular, then learn how to ollie in a regular stance...i think that solves your problem...if not, then just let me know...name's 808skater so yeah...just message me for any other problems you need help on...

p.s. if your wondering why i'm on this forum, it's because my friend needs help on the skating thing too...but he just started and he tried to go down a 4 foot ramp...busted his lip by that...lol...

Dude, it doesnt matter at all if ur right or left handed, this site is full of ***** every one of my friends skates goofy and is right handed.. skate goofy if you can alkready ollie obviously... it takes so long to learn ollies in a new stance, just stick goofy..
