Posted: Thu Mar 26, 2009 2:22 amAm I the only weirdo who gets up sometimes rear foot first? Seems most newbs I see get their front foot up first? I know they should both go up together , and given the right conditions they normally do, but when its rough or 'big' I seem to get lazy and slack and go back to rear foot first...weird...

Posted: Thu Mar 26, 2009 5:13 am^^ nope, I get on back foot first also. I also skateboard Mongo, so im used to having the left foot down first then swinging the front foot over and on the board. I think theres no right way, just whatever your comfy with.
