OK i was wondering if going up a ramp and coming back down in a differet stance, like switching, is a trick. For me it is, coming down on my weak foot. |

People often go backwards in the opposite stance to what they go forwards, due to the fact that this makes 180s easier . . . so if you're gonna go up forwards but come back down backwards without turning/carving, you might switch out your feet at the high-point. Of course it all depends on what you're used to. . . . if you practise it a given way for ages, then of course that way will feel easier for you, whether it's standard or not |

I've seen people catch air, 180º, then land back switched... It looks cool as hell, but IDK if it has a name |
