how do you sk8board

i was wondering how people sk8  

goofy RULES
well 4 me it does any way  

wat's mongo?  

mongo is wen you push with your back foot at the bottom of your board :wink:  

Yeah so you can still be mongo and skate goofy or regular.Theres gotta be some people in here that skate mongo and just don't realize it or something.This kid i know was doing it and didn't know what is was either.I told him how to really skate and he was learning real quick after that.It's seriously true that you can learn faster skating the right way.  

people should sk8 how they feel comfortable my mate sk8s mongo i tried to convince him its :P :P but he says at least i can sk8 faster and if im going to hit something all i need to do is push on the tail and move out the way  

sk8r_bnmn why dont you be the only person that votes for mongo then you sad sad boy :lol: :lol: :lol:  

It's sk8r_bnmn and yeah right your prob. just embarrassed that your the olny person to skate mongo.I have never skated mongo not even for switch,POSER! :twisted:  

nob head :P  

i skate mongo and could someone PLEASE tell me why regular is better than mongo because i think skating how ou feel comfortable should be the best way
:?: :?: :?: :?:  

I skate mongo, I don't think it really makes a difference in how fast you learn. I have friends that started with me who don't skate mongo and we are almost on the same level, infact im alittle better than some. Mongo is comfortable to me so that's how I skate.  

i skate mongo and the only thing people tell me is that it takes a big longer to setup for moves. so u kinda have to be a faster sk8er to keep ur speed up if you are going to do a trick.  

The other day I tried to skate non-mongo and setting up for tricks was eaiser and quicker since you only have to put your foot on the tail. I don't think it really matters since almost everyone skates mongo when they skate switch. Mongo skaters don't push mongo switch so setting up for switch tricks won't take as long.  

New here and i love to skate regular...Mongo...?  

My mate is mongo and he sez it is a rite pain in the rse sumtimes..... like takin ledges?  

to boz

to skateboarder,
thank you for your enlightening post. However, my friend is not one of those people who is happy to change. He would rather find it hard to ollie off ledges than bother with lernin to sk8 regualr  

spose you have a point  

damned rite i do  

Hmmm... New sk8ter here (still trying to ollie. I seam to have some sort of mental blockade that just won’t let me do it right)... I suppose some of you no doubt will make fun of me, but that’s ok. I probably deserve it. I skate Goofy and Mongo... well actually that’s not entirely true, I keep switching all around. Sometimes mongo is comfortable and sometimes regular feels better. My boyfriend (who is teaching me) gets incredibly aggravated with me because I can never just pick a stance and keep it. Ambidextrous feet I guess.

I’m still clinging to the hope that I’ll grow out of it and end up skating regular.  

oh right cool 8) 8) a girl do you no any other girl sk8ers bar yourself and eliss steamer :!:  

There are a few other girl skaters at my school, but not many. I've never actually seen any of them skate, but by word of mouth at least one of them is good (unlike me, hah! But I'm working on it) As far as knowing any girl skaters online, thats a negative. I hear there are a lot of girls into inline skating (which I tried, but it felt like looking for the easy way to call myself a skater. Needless to say I deverted back to skateboarding, even though I suck)

Just to stay on the thread here, I'll go ahead and let everyone know that I ollied, and can only do it while skating goofy/mongo, so I guess that is how I skate... oh what a sad sad thing. Oh well... at least I'm comfortable. I guess thats what comes from being dominately right brained, left handed, and always going against the grain... you get so used to doing things wrong you cant do anything right! :roll:  

YOU SHOULD DEFINETLY STAY SK8BORDIN ITS EASIER  

Point taken, though I dont agree that its easier... I've always been decent on inlines, and I'm falling all over myself on a skateboard. I guess thats half the fun though... if I never hurt myself it really wouldnt be that great when I actually did something without falling.

Hmmm... I REALLY would like to skate regular. Well, actually I'll always skate goofy, that cant be helped, but I'm going to try and not mongo. I just think it would be better to break the habit now than wait until I'm really used to it.  

im goofy,but i also skate goofy.hahaha.sorry my cheezy sense of humor.  

Nolaquen, a girl? I just thought HE was gay. Not that there's anything wrong with being a grl........... or gay....... wait, there is.....

HAHAHAHAHA... lol... gay... that's hysterical. I hope when you said "wait, there is", you werent talking about being a girl as well as being gay...  

i think boz is the only gay person here i say kick im of phere the majority want him off  

heyhey, bring it on. I cud probably kick ur ass with a feather duster, you wanking cunt.

Ps. i'm not gay

PPs. Nolaquen, of course i wasn't talking about girls. they make up the more attractive part of the race.  

Thats for sure... Well actually there are some pretty guys around here, but they all have boyfriends...

Hmmm... most hot guys are always gay :( We saw this dude working in the mall today in Tallahassee. He was fine... but then again he was working this makeover counter in a JC Penny. That didnt stop alot of us from drooling though...

Ha... Billie (also a girl) spotted this guy in the food court and she was slobering all over herself. He was really young looking but he was walking around with a little boy we were sure was his son. Maglissa pointed out to Billie that he had a kid, and she said "I know! That means he can do it!" It was hilarious.

It was a GREAT trip. By the way, incase you dont know what I'm talking about, It was the state History fair. I was a competetor. They hated my paper and we got our asses kicked.

Alright, sorry. I know this has been WAY off topic. I dont even know how I started talking about this... Oh yeah, the gay thing...
