Some people on here are sayin they want less switch in tricks.(other than bc) why? i'm not disagreeing i'm just wondering. is it cuz tricks might not look as smooth? (which i disagree with) or what?

i guess it's been played out, in my opinion, i like switch tricks. going switch really impresses the female audiances.

because thye are all the tricks thrown in big air comps, if normal and switch riding were rated closer together, or more people would be doing nice unnatty 9's and stuff

i would hella rather see switch tricks than unnatty, since unnatty looks no different than normal.

most unnaty tricks look a little sloppier than regular. switch tricks are more impressive to me.

I like switch too. Watching and doing. It adds more of a variety to the trick list.

I like switch shit, but I prefer switch landings over switch take off. Its just been overdone in my opinons. Its all switch nowadays

switch tricks are so sweet as long as there done smooth, they look a lot cooler than regular stuff when done right, and take a lot more skill
