A few years back, I remember Etnies had a goofy vs. regular skate tournament where they invited the best pros who rode goofy footed, and the best who rode regular, and had an insane turnout and result. Now, for bmx, you can be goofy-footed if you ride LDH or RHD, so for the sake of this argument, let's say a bmx contest was formed with two teams, one of the best right-foot-forward pros, and then one with the best left-foot-forward pros.

Who do you think would be a major asset to both sides? And who would win?

I ride right-foot-forward, and there is a slight bias where I think this team would win. Garrett Reynolds, Churchill, Kerley being arguably the best riders out there at the moment. At the same time, you have left-foot-forward guys like Enarson, Williams, Roche, and Martinez. It'd be quite a battle...

I like the fact that left foot has dennis and crumlish and fucking Nathan god damn williams, dudes a fucking god, I mean, stevie goes big and kerley has lines, but those don't match up to nathans crazy tricks and dennis' lines.

anyone else prefer watching edits with riders that ride same foot forward as you?

Freestyle is the answer to everything --
a fresh way to approach a dull or a
dangerous thing.
to do a dull thing with style
is preferable to doing a dangerous thing
without it.

Yeah, I'm the popular goofy-footed with left foot. Right-footed goofy people are hard to come by, like Sunday.

I feel like there are more right foot forward pros for some reason. I am left foot forward and the majority of my friends are too so when I first started riding, I thought that if you were right foot forward, you were either left handed or weird. Now, I am learning that it's actually the other way around!

Anyway, I feel like the right foot forward team would win. They'd have Ross, Dugan, Hawk, Stevie, Kerley, Fernengel, just a lot more people.

I would be rooting for the left foot forward team though! Haha Nathan Williams and Van Homan would surely put up a good fight.

Right foot forward... between garret and kerley and stevie and raiford we would win in the street course(homan is a god but keep in mid garrett has beaten homan before) and then park wise we would have kyle baldock, logan martin, chase hawk, todd meyn, matt roe, tyler fernengel, kevin peraza and daniel sandoval. almost every single one one of those guys could kill it in dirt too.... The only one we would lose in would be vert because bestwick is left foot forward.

I am left foot forward. It only matters if a spot needs some other footing. Like it being easier to wallride something the other way haha

My goal in life is to be completely ambidextrous. Thatd be sweet.

David Grant for right-foot-forward. and Reed Stark.

Speaking for this whole earth, I'd have to say right-footed riders take the majority, regardless if it relates to you being right-handed or whatever.
