Okay so I have QCS pegs (which are amazing btw)
I ride goofy and I have my pegs on heelside/right side.
is this correct? I've been riding with them for 2 weeks this way but i haven't learned that many peg tricks.
this is kinda aimed at Aaron Brandson or like Justin Robertson or any of those guys that ride pegs really well.

if you are goofy and you have your pegs on your right side thats good

if you put them on the left side you will have to turn fs to do stalls(but if you do turn fs then put them on your left)

i don't run pegs atm, but when i did i had em on my left, and i'm goofy. i actually learned a lot of the "peg" stuff without em. i think its just easier to do like 5050's and stuff because you can see where the deck is easily, you don't have to look behind you over your shoulder like you would if they were on your right.

im goofy and run pegs on my heel side (right), feels fine to me, never tried running them on the other side

i never had any troubles learning double peg, tooth/ice pick grinds this way either

Most riders like pegs frontside. But I have met the select few that prefer backside. But are the same stance as myself (regular).

I also noticed a lot of riders only throw on pegs for a session or two then take them off. I haven't taken my pegs off in almost a year now, haha.

It's all a matter of preference and what is comfortable for you.

Just another question though, did you cut your pegs to be shorter? Cause stock they are pretty wide. I'm cutting half off of my set.

Thanks for the reply Jordan, Justin and Josh.
Jordan, thats exactly what i was thinking like it might be easier to see what im doing .. but then again i think it would be cooler to learn everything backside :S AGH
Josh i find mine almost too small haha, and I run a TSI deck.
Yeah i've seen people take there pegs off too and i also think thats weird mine are staying on forever haha
