ugh..i think they look ugly, unless you cathch like in a grizzly air, that might be the only exception. levon does back foot catches and i think they look sick..his whip to bars are like whip to one foot bar, then he puts his foot on. and both feet catches are cool too

definitely.. i catch with my back foot and i reckon it looks a lot better and more stylish

i don't remember which foot i use to kick my tailwhips :( They just are locked so i don't watch them really. But i do remember that old times i used to whip them french style (pushing them w/ back foot), but now i either whip them with both legs (on flat?) or with front foot (american style).

i can't even tailwhip switch lol. I tried it once over a box and kind of killed myself. I can heelwhip though which is kind of similar i guess...

id work on them on smaller stuff first. get used to them on flat or other easier stuff before trying them over a box lol, i mean everything is exactly the same you just need to figure it all out the wrong way..
 
i kick the scooter with my back foot at catch and with my left foot which is always wway out front i have a vid where i come inches from kicking myself in the head though so u might not want to try this

i agree with you there, but up until now, I was used to kicking the deck with my back foot, I can't seem to do 2 foot whips off banks and stuff because it fucks the whip up in midair...

I kick with my right foot, when riding ski and both feet when I'm riding goofy, I can only do heelwhips when I ride regular.
