Pushing mongo

[s_legary]

Why is it so taboo for a skater to push mongo. almost everywhere I go on the internet someone is saying something about people who push mongo. What's the big deal?

[Ruben_Williams]

it looks ugly, can pick up bad habits from it, n cant steer well when pushing, but it does benefit for setting up a few tricks.

[STEEZxSTATUS]

my opinion is that it looks werierd it just doesnt feel the same as pushing regular or goofy..:)

what ruben and steez said
i need to learn to push normally in switch cause switch mongo makes me lose balance

Mongo is also slower than pushing regularly. But it does makes it easier to deal with crack/holes in the ground. This is why its very common among beginners, and looked down upon so harshly.

Pushing mongo is sort of the equivalence to running with your right foot and right arm forward at the same time instead of normal where your right foot and left arm goes forward. Try it. You'll look retarded and you'll run really slow.

You can just tell the sort of people who would point out 'how stupid it is to push mongo'. Normally the posers.

I personally don't do it, but it wouldn't bother me if someone did.
