I have a issue, i am going snowboarding, first time, i skate regular but the only reason i became regular was because i could get much more pop using my right leg, i wake boarded before i skateboarded and i was a goofy. hmm

  1. Well I went with what just felt more natural to me, which is goofy.  However, I read that if you slide across the floor in socks, such as Tom Cruise did in Risky Business, whatever foot forward you have is the same foot that will most likely be forward when you snowboard.  

    After reading that, I was 100% sure I am goofy footed.


  2. Normally, if you skate one way, it is the same for all board sports, but there are some people who's stance is one way for one sport and another.  There are even fewer who can ride equally well either way.  This is not really a problem.  You can set your bindings for regular stance, since you skate more frequently than wakeboard.  If it feels uncomfortable,  just turn the bindings around.  The coolest way to go is to get a twin tip board and ride duck footed.  That is where both feet are pointed outward. (One in the positive and one in the negative.)  I ride at +27, -27 I skate regular, but about 60% of the time I snowboard switch.

  3. Okay i always have so much fun with this when someone asks me i push them from behind and whichever foot goes out to catch yourself put that forward don't worry about wake boarding goofy its completely different from snowboarding I'm going to guess that you favored being on the left side of the wake too
