mongo

[goofy>everyone]

stevie williams is the only pro ive ever seen that pushes mongo
any others yall know of>?

[spenser]

he doesnt push mongo, he pushes mongo when he skates switch. lots of pro skaters do that, but most of them just learn to push normal switch.

[Sk8 Shorty's]

i push mongo only in switch, but i can also just push switch.

[jusfuris]

josh kalis does and so does rob dyrdek sometimes

[goofy>everyone]

whoops my bad he does push regular
i got confused cuz i just watched the dc video and he only pushes regluar once or twice

[sk8t3r]

i push mongo lol im not a pro though

[spenser]

there is not a pro on the planet that pushes mongo. if you ever see one doing it, theyre skating switch.

its usually the tech skater guys that do it. and for some reason, the dc/aws teams seem to do it most, like the guys you guys are listing.

[I_Eat_Emo_Kids]

Most people push mongo when skating switch. You might be confused watching Stevie W. since he does most of his tricks switch. It's ill.

[spenser]

yeah, its ghetto. ghetto in a good way.

it just adds to the gangster switchness.

[I_Eat_Emo_Kids]

Hell yea, he's so steezy, and he has a buttery switch flip and switch shuv revert.

[WakeBake&Skate]

that he does

[spenser]

the one switch shove revert he does in a line in the dc video is sooo awesome. its just flatground and all, but he pops so high and its crazy.

[FIGHT!]

I quit pushing mongo, its not too hard a habit to break.

[graphix]

mango pushers have a easier time to do no complys. Dan is the man for them.

[Whitney]

idk...most pros dont mongo

but im mongo and goofy too woo! thats what you get for trying to teach yourself...

[I_Eat_Emo_Kids]

^Uh well.. It's common sense to me not to push mongo. Like I wanted to skate because I saw skaters do it. I watched them and then I just taught myself. It was a bitch to teach myself how to kickflip and heelflip though. I think It really helped me with skating and without though. ya know.

the one switch shove revert he does in a line in the dc video is sooo awesome. its just flatground and all, but he pops so high and its crazy.

Mang.. Kudos to him. I love watching him skate pretty much anything. He adds a charmingly ghetto style to everything while keeping it nice and clean.

[spenser]

idk...most pros dont mongo.
its not MOST pros... NO pros push mongo.

[Whitney]

yea mongoeing sucks i wish i could break my habit but it seems so natural now. sometimes i can skate the 'right way' but it doesnt feel right.

[goofy>everyone]

if you skate the right way enough it becomes natural

like i learned to ollie regular only to discover that i was goofy
so i learned em goofy and now switch ones dont feel right

[Fight!Skater]

mongo is ugly i do it sometimes switch but i try to push regular switch

[fudgepacker]

I can push either way comfortably. My only problem is riding switch comfortably.

[crazymonkrides]

Mongo is ugly, and harder to skate with, being that you have to switch sides quickly. It takes longer for you to set up tricks. Most new and up coming pros and AMs, DO NOT PUSH MONGO. Regular or goofy. I know for beginners it is a habit, but its sketchy. Pushing mongo switch is dying quickly, and fast.

[spenser]

there is not a single pro/am or up coming pro/am that pushes mongo. there just isnt.

its not like.. hm, i dont know if i want to push mongo or not, when you start skating. you push. there is one right way. and mongo is a wrong way. sure, it WORKS, but its wrong. yes, wrong.

[Kake Jelly]

Wrong? or Rebelious? or Different?

[spenser]

wrong.

its like in america, youre supposed to drive on the right side of the road. and driving on the left is wrong.

[Kake Jelly]

Yeh but that's a rule which you have to obide by.. there arn't any rules for skateboarding
