I skate goofy and i get complete blance and when i try non-goofy i get no balance, i tried doing non-goofy for awhile and i do way worse, i think it doesn't matter what foot you push with as long as your good with that foot.
Agree?

dude it's called switch skating. it's a very difficult thing to skate in your opposite stance as well as you can in your natural. but yeah you figured it out. it's a whole different story just putting another foot forward.

Nothing's wrong with Goofy.

Maybe you are thinking about Mongo? What exactly is the point of this, I'm confused.

You don't know this yet, but you're %50 cooler than the average person if you push goofy

It's cool dude, it happens to the best of us.

One time, when I was new here, some guy wrote "Hey I'm back."
and I misinterpreted and I thought he wrote "Hey, I'm black,"

So he got me started into a whole racial argument. Until China told me he said back, not black. Lol.

Anyways, Mongo is bad because you push with your front foot, and then when you are done pushing it takes longer than usual to set up for a trick. Just force yourself to start pushing the other way around. My brother started off like that, since you're still pretty early in skating. ( I take it?)

Learn the right way bro, it'll feel weird, but it's the best thing for you.

apart from it takes longer to set up for tricks and pushing normally generally looks better
