well sir. ive pushed mongo for like 8 years. I do, and i make it look good and no one gives me shit about it. i can push regular. but mongo just always felt better. besides when you do a steezy tre down a 5 stair noone care how you pushed to get their lol
despite the fact that skating is all style, the reason you push regular is because its more stable and you can set up for a trick faster after pushing. kick the bad habits or you will get shit from everyone.
Pushing mongo limits the way you skate pushing regular and switch is easy to learn its all in your head im goofy and i can push switch all it is really is commitment haha
Let me tell you what all the bullshit is about. Everyone has their comfortable way of skateboarding , i started out pushing mongo in regular stance , i realized mongo was REALLY good for Balance. Going down huge hills , grinding , etc. Pushing normally , is easier to set up tricks in many sequences as to pushing mongo you have to adjust to a trick. Over the years you'll understand if you keep skateboarding , i love both equally cause they're both really awesome stances. Don't see why people tal
It can't really ruin your chances of being a good skater, however when you are trying to set up for an ollie or kickflip or whatever, it creates more steps for you to take than you would if you were pushing normally. If you are more skilled and practice, then you can still be a great skater, but it's harder to time correctly.
It's skating man, stye is EVERYTHING! Since the beginning, Jay Adams, Stacy Peralta, Peggy Oki, Steve Alba and Steve Olson. Look at these guys skate, these are the Gods, the guys who began it all, the ones who set the precedent. Each skater should have their own style. Being able to watch someone do a trick is one thing but if they do it like a robot, why would you wanna watch it? Learn to push with both feet, it will make you a better all round skater.
Rodney Mullen doesn't have style...he has tech. For example Gonz, Natas have style but may not be as tech. As for the mongo, there has been pro skaters that push mongo...like Bill Danforth, Randy Colvin. Who cares how you push as long as you are having fun. That's what wrong with skating now, it's all look what I can do and how my hat is on my head and how my clothes are...that's crap.
becuase it has nothign to do with how you look its sloppy tasteless and not proper and the people who invented skating sould rollover in thier graves to know how people desecrate their sport.......THATS WHY
It's only okay to push mongo if you want to learn switch tricks without learning to master to switch push immediately... either way, you're going to not push mongo any more. Also, mongo makes you look like a fucking jackass.
Okay, i used to skate normal,. i now skate mongo because of my fucked up achilles tendon... What the hell is so bad with mongo pushers? i still shit on alot of regulars. who cares how you skate. its all for fun. stop the fucking criticism. In my opinion the guys who criticize are the ones that dont do shit.
@TCMTroll Not trying to Troll you or anything but foot placement dosent determine how sketchy you skate, i was 6 when i started skating and no one told me how to skate so i just got on and i guess mongo is how i rode from here on out, I do clean Tre's and Kickflips's, its how you have balance and stability on the board, its the board and you not the foot and the board....
@kcforlife3 yeah exactly the only problem is when you do tricks, you kind of have to balance on the other foot. that is what makes it hard.i mongo and im proud.
@theEddievanhalen Exactly Mongo is more comfortable and pushing reggy is just not comfortable for me :P , It really shouldnt matter how we ride a board, everythings changed, Cant do shit anymore without getting ridiculed over it, People who DONT push mongo should'nt talk shit i guarentee 70% of the people here saying Mongo is gay probaly cant even ollie clean....
I THINK PUSHING MONGO IS LESS COMFORTABLE SO EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD FEEL THE SAME AND NOT DO IT. YOU CANT PROVE IT BUT I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT IT RUINS YOUR STYLE. EVERYONE HAS TO SKATE A CERTAIN WAY OR YOU LOSE YOUR SKATING PRIVILAGES
stevie williams = push mongo.....explain that faggots
im not hating on mongo if u push mongo to me it makes it harder to skate because you have to bring your front foot on and move ur back foot if u can do it well than do it but u said you suck so try pushing regular i skate goofy and people talk shit about that too so keep doing what you like
Jesus. I probably suck compared to some of you and yes I push mongo, but it seems to me that me, other mongo pushers, and REAL skaters are the only ones that realize skatings about doing and learning tricks not about arguing over fu*king feet on the ground. If you can do a trick mongo or regular its the same trick in the end.
I wouldn't say it looks stupid, I'd say it is inefficient. You slow down and turn in an unaerodynamic way which is not good for travel, but ultimately any way you feel comfortable skating is good. You just feel natural that way I know. Just like I'm goofy footed but right handed. It's just natural feeling.
Nothing is wrong with pushing mongo, I push mongo but do I give a shit ?
like seriously if it's comfortable it works ppl say that mongo is sketchy but if it's more comfortable than it's probably less sketchy. Peace out mongo riders!
I push Mongo and I've been sponsored for more then 3years now, that's more then a lot of people can say, but i would suggest you switch once you start doing switch flips ect.
skateboarding is all about having fun, no matter how you push... it's rare to see skaters pushing mongo (not talking about switchstance, which is a particular case), because it's more comfortable to push the normal way (kick foot on the upper side of the deck and back foot on the ground).
@TheWoodpusherforlife nothing, besides the fact that every trick you land will be considered sloppy if your pushing mongo its not that hard to learn to push right and when you learn, it will feel much better to land tricks
go skate. its pussys like you that give skateboarders a bad name, instead of actually skating you would rather sit around whining about how dudes who can really shred down on you because you push mongo. kids like you dont actually care about shredding, you just like thinking your a "skater" you dont actually like skating. fag.
@wileycoyote802 Thank you. I push mongo, yes it may look stupid, but when I beat every kid in Skate I verse, it's not so funny. People shouldn't give a shit what stance they skate. It's posers who care about what stance they are and make fun of kids for mongo.
i don't even skate [ not my thing ] but I like to watch people skate, but now every video I go to I see mongo, so I had to figure out what the hell it was . . . I'm not a skater but I've seen people skate really well "mongo .
Dont be mad cuz you suck at skating mongo pushers.. just learn to push like a big boy.. i see you guys pushing mongo at the bottom of bowls and shit.. truly gay
@GreenHandMovies It's all in the technique. I started out pushing mongo, but learned how to push regular. Now I can push switch with my back foot and mongo regular while I longboard. Increases your pushing range a lot when you can use both feet. And flatground longboarding is all about endurance.
I skate mongo,I surf mongo and that is the only way to surf.I surfed before I skated so it is just my way to skate. In fact in the "old days" we used to laugh at skaters who pushed with their rear foot.The shit is just going full circle. When you consider the physics of bringing your foot from behind you around to the front & if your coordination sucks it can be difficult for some to bring their rear foot around to the front that is why mongo is cool..it's harder to do.
People r fuckin stupid I push Mongo and I'm better than most people and it's like for me not to push Mongo Is like u try to write a 5000 word paper with ur opposite writing hand we just can't so back the fuxk off
@Epicfilms4 no what your thinking of with the right and left hand thing is is goofy and regular mongo is a stupid way to push it makes you so unstable when pushing plus you have to push your front foot forwards on a moving board which increases the chance of injury its like writing with no thumb
@Epicfilms4 wrong i started skating pushing mongo and i learned not pushing mongo like 7 years ago and i never push mongo unless i REALLY gotta get speed to clear some stairs or whatever.
@Epicfilms4 - It's not a matter of being bad or not. It's just downright stupid to push mongo, you fuck over your central mass making it easier to fall and harder to gain speed.
I may be an asshole.. but when girls see me skate.. they wanna fuck me.. basicly not an option for mongo pushers.. just sayin..im trying to help.. just dont push mongo.. its not like im raciest agenst mongo pushers.. im just saying you make skateboarding look bad.. try coming from a college town where nothing but stupid drunk chad bros ride longboards and push mongo.. its RETARDED!!!
@TheBrrp If anyone's stupid, its you thinking that being opinionated toward skating styles is "racist". Looks like if anyone needs to go to collage, its you. Now stop typing long ass explanations, no one cares about your views.
@JakeMasterbait i didnt litteraly mean raciest you dumbshit its a metaphore... and if you dont care about my fucking opinion then why would you read it and reply to it? i give a shut about this video becasue the kid asked a question whats wrong with mongo pushing... and i stated my opinion.. its like owning a left handed hockey stick and playing right handed.. you look like a fucking retard.. get some flipflops and push mongo you fruits
@TheBrrp "when girls see me skate..they wanna fuck me" really? anymore immature? i push mongo and i bet i can kick ur ass in S.K.A.T.E. no challenge bro...and plus mongo lookin at in physics way gives u more power per push and gives u better ballance post-push so put that in ur crack pipe and puff it c(=
if you ride a longboard you have no style dipshit.. get a regular board and stop pushing mongo.. it looks lame.. or as nerds call it its "noob" and to answer your question EVERYTHING IS WRONG WITH MONGO PUSHERS!! dont do it.. youll never get laid if a girl sees you doing that..
I skate regular AND mongo. So I have the best of both worlds. I guess skating regular gives you a little bit of extra balance, especially if your going fast. And most people think it looks cooler, but thats nothing important. If you want to skate regular, it really isnt hard to learn. Its easier than you think.
It does not matter, only dicks care about how they push the skateboard. If you can do a trick while pushing mongo it means your a better skater, because it is harder to get your feet in the right places before you pull the trick.
dudes, most of the people that push mongo, didnt decide to, they werent like heyyy...."i feel like pushing mongo" no, thats just how theyre used to riding, they cant ride ny other way mann, you guys act like us mongo peoplle chose to ride mongo
i dont push mongo nymore cuz u gay ass faggits hate all the time and act like ur sooo good cuz u dont push mongo
I don't think mongo pushing looks gay or stupid, but the reason people say not to is because they say you have less control of the board and I have to say, I tried mogo pushing...and they're right, I had very little control of my speed or balance.
@dn157523 DECENT answer. However, a lot of mongo pushers kind of have that back foot toward the middle of the deck while they push so as to avoid this issue. Thank you though for the non douchebaggy response that actually brought up a relevant issue besides the way it looks or the "trick setup" time, which is irrelevant when you've mastered mongo.
every skateboarder is a poser. you know why? they all feel the need to tell ppl what is wrong and right. They all take the same role so they are posing.
listen... skateboarding is all about having style.. if you push mongo people might think you suck complete ass.. witch is most likly the case if you push mongo.. theres nothing wrong with it its just ugly.. plus how are you supposed you push going down a hill mongo? sounds like shit.. try pushing normally.. keep skating.. ALWAYS GO FAST!!
@TheBrrp I'm a longboarder and I push mongo. DH pushing is 0 obstacle. In fact it's better to push mongo DH because mongo is best for generating quick speed as opposed to light kicks from the regular foot. Oh and I have tons of style, I out skate/slide all my friends and they all push regular. It's all about going hard man. Once I'm going 25mph who cares how I pushed to start, just watch the skills eh!>
@dontmugurself To each his own friend.. as long as your ripping... but all i know is when i skate i get laid because of it.. if i pushed mongo.. this may not be the case
well i say the only good reason to push mongo is if your going to do a no comply or you just did a trick and you ended up in the switch position and you push as if your were still in your regular stance plus ive seen pros do the second example i put
the only reason anyone should skate mongo is if there doing a no comply... wait since your bad you probally dont know what that means and rodney M. is actually good and nobody would care if he skated mongo but if someone like you went out in public and skated mongo people would laugh.
@RoriesLife Right? Which is exactly why regular pushers say they don't push mongo, cuz it looks bad to them and because they lose their balance. Duhhhh you are gonna lose your balance pushing the way you never push. I never really got that reason...it's pretty much a given if you push regular you won't be good at pushing mongo and vice versa (if you push mongo you won't be good at pushing regular).
@koloolok XD I like how You say bowlcut when his hair is clearly different lengths, You just have no taste in music, and glasses? XD i'm pretty sure half the people uno wear them ;)
@Shayley1000 Alright, sorry bro, he has a bowlcut mullet. This fool is a nerd straight up. I listen to men's music, beast shit like Lil Wayne or Tyga.
hmmm... let me see, skateboarding, derived from surfing, has EVERYTHING to do with style. You have bad style, you are not respected. Rodney Mullen has style, and it would matter if he pushed mongo.
Because it can slow you down, personally, I don't mind it either way, it's just it makes it easier sometimes to do goofy or regular... Your choice though.
Its bad to push mongo because when your moving your front foot off the board, and u place it back on to set up a trick, you'll take about a second longer. It doesn't seem that long but it is when your trying to do a set of tricks. Now personally, I ride mongo, and I can do flip tricks, spins, jumps off stairs and stuff like that. But I'm gonna start practicing just normal goofy so I can get myself to become a better skater. If it doesn't work out, WHATEVER, mongo all the way!
pushing regular gives you better balance and more time to set up a trick.

I skate regular AND mongo. So I have the best of both worlds. I guess skating regular gives you a little bit of extra balance, especially if your going fast. And most people think it looks cooler, but thats nothing important. If you want to skate regular, it really isnt hard to learn. Its easier than you think.

It does not matter, only dicks care about how they push the skateboard. If you can do a trick while pushing mongo it means your a better skater, because it is harder to get your feet in the right places before you pull the trick.
Tman4561 6 months ago
well mongo takes your front foot away from the board, an makes you have to change your front and back foot before the trick

HAMMAHU808 7 months ago
I don't think mongo pushing looks gay or stupid, but the reason people say not to is because they say you have less control of the board and I have to say, I tried mogo pushing...and they're right, I had very little control of my speed or balance.
dand0708 7 months ago
@dand0708 That's only because you weren't used to it. You don't think mongo people find the same thing true when they try to push regular?

Mike V skates mongo, I think it's just the matter of what feels comfortable... Like being left handed or right handed.

dn157523 8 months ago
@dn157523 DECENT answer. However, a lot of mongo pushers kind of have that back foot toward the middle of the deck while they push so as to avoid this issue. Thank you though for the non douchebaggy response that actually brought up a relevant issue besides the way it looks or the "trick setup" time, which is irrelevant when you've mastered mongo.

every skateboarder is a poser. you know why? they all feel the need to tell ppl what is wrong and right. They all take the same role so they are posing.

listen... skateboarding is all about having style.. if you push mongo people might think you suck complete ass.. witch is most likly the case if you push mongo.. theres nothing wrong with it its just ugly.. plus how are you supposed you push going down a hill mongo? sounds like shit.. try pushing normally.. keep skating.. ALWAYS GO FAST!!
TheBrrp 8 months ago
@TheBrrp I'm a longboarder and I push mongo. DH pushing is 0 obstacle. In fact it's better to push mongo DH because mongo is best for generating quick speed as opposed to light kicks from the regular foot. Oh and I have tons of style, I out skate/slide all my friends and they all push regular. It's all about going hard man. Once I'm going 25mph who cares how I pushed to start, just watch the skills eh!>

@dontmugurself To each his own friend.. as long as your ripping... but all i know is when i skate i get laid because of it.. if i pushed mongo.. this may not be the case
TheBrrp 7 months ago
well i say the only good reason to push mongo is if your going to do a no comply or you just did a trick and you ended up in the switch position and you push as if your were still in your regular stance plus ive seen pros do the second example i put

the only reason anyone should skate mongo is if there doing a no comply... wait since your bad you probally dont know what that means and rodney M. is actually good and nobody would care if he skated mongo but if someone like you went out in public and skated mongo people would laugh.

RoriesLife 9 months ago
@RoriesLife Right? Which is exactly why regular pushers say they don't push mongo, cuz it looks bad to them and because they lose their balance. Duhhhh you are gonna lose your balance pushing the way you never push. I never really got that reason...it's pretty much a given if you push regular you won't be good at pushing mongo and vice versa (if you push mongo you won't be good at pushing regular).

It's your choice, but it does kind of slow

Because it can slow you down, personally, I don't mind it either way, it's just it makes it easier sometimes to do goofy or regular... Your choice though.

kishaba1980 1 year ago
Its bad to push mongo because when your moving your front foot off the board, and u place it back on to set up a trick, you'll take about a second longer. It doesn't seem that long but it is when your trying to do a set of tricks. Now personally, I ride mongo, and I can do flip tricks, spins, jumps off stairs and stuff like that. But I'm gonna start practicing just normal goofy so I can get myself to become a better skater. If it doesn't work out, WHATEVER, mongo all the way!
