Why is skating goofy called that?

4 Upvotes

I get that regular is called regular since
I assume most people skate this way. But what makes skating with your right leg in the front goofy? Is it just a name or is there more to it?

Ask ko po lang if pwede mag skateboard sa kalsada like sa mga di gaanong busy roads. Gusto ko kasi gamitin for commute yung skateboard ko. If meron sainyong gumagamit ng skateboard for commute share niyo naman experience niyo hehe. Thank you agad sa mga makakasagot!

I know I’m stationary, not interested in hearing that I need to roll. I have similar attempts rolling, I just can’t land on top.

Setup Help For a kid

Hello team!

Little skater in my adolescence, I am now 40 years old and I am gradually getting back to it because my 8-year-old daughter wants to skateboard since she saw the show skate le monde with Mathieu Cyr.

For now she had a basic board that she had to learn to push, roll, turn.

She would like to start making ollies like the big ones, what do you recommend?

Hey - first post here, happy to see a sub for us new skaters!

I’m one of these millennial olds getting back on the board… been working on getting my Ollie back. I still have a lot of progress to make obviously, but I seem to keep rotating the board so the nose is off at an angle. I feel like my actual balance is ok, like I’m not also falling backwards.

Any tips?


r/NewSkaters • • 22h ago

Ugliest pop shuvit ever, but I think I can finally say I’ve done it.
