back foot briflips

I was trying briflips the other day to see how fast I could spin them, and I tried experimenting with them and found out that I can spin them faster if I kick it with my back foot. Does anybody else do them that way, and is it bad to do them like this?
 
Ive only found out that it's possible to do tailwhip briflips only when kicking it with the back foot but I did it only when standing on the ground.
 
I briflip with my front foot and all my 180 stuff i kick with both feet... and I know frank coler doesnt even use his feet, he uses only his arms.

dumb question. Every guy does them diffirent, you just gotta try all stances by yourself because none of us really can't tell you which stance is better for you. It's all about practicing. Remember, when you almost got your front scooterflips in the beginning of this summer?

You're wrong. When it comes to front scooterflips it's hard to do them frontside (like most ppl) out of ski stance, people either move their feet to have nothing but toes on the deck, or do them backside, so its possible to kick it out from any stance. In this case you have to overcome the problem of landing switch though, which might occur somehow tricky... Just look at the ski stance riders, they either do backside ones (Kevin Vannauker, I think he did an opposite one once but after all he's weird with stances...) or 'just can't do them' (Brian Boston, haha).
