I skate regular, but hit rails with my right foot forward, and spin to the right when skiing. Is my body just retarded or is all this normal?

it's like lefty vs. righty with writing.

being more comfotable hitting rails right foot forward is more dominant

being more comfortable spinning left is more dominant

I skate goofy, I slide rails left foot forward, and spin to the right. None is the "normal" way.

I must be weird than because I skate goofy, slide left foot forward and spin right.

Maybe I need to start practicing right foot forward and spinning left. Hmmm..

This is what would make most sense to me, left foot always forward, or right foot always forward

I don't skateboard but when I use a skateboard I go regular. With a longboard I go goofy. Surfing I go regular. Skiing I spin left and hit rails with right foot first. I'm retarded.

I skate goofy, grind right foot forward and spin left. I wish I spun right though, cause then I wouldn't spin naturally into blind spins off rails.
