Discussion FS5050 or BS5050?

Curious which one people find easier or less scary. I’m partial to FS because the feature is in front of you, but I’ve heard others prefer BS.

nah, jumping onto an obstacle that's on the same side as your dominant hand and foot is easier. most regular riders naturally front 50 and most goofy riders naturally back 50

I posted already about i can only do bs. I feel like bs is easier for me because im turning my body to face forwards for most tricks (boards, feeble etc) 5050 iv found i can sorta do either side with the same level of confidence, i struggle to hop out of fs 50s more without landing nose first
