Why do peole with madd gear decks...

[nateridesscooters]

put their fork backward?
does it really make a difference to footjam?

Yeh it does alot, you can get your foot right in this great position to footjam with, i do it all the time. Makes it easier for me.

its not the deck its the fork , they put it backwards because there is more wheel to put their foot on

 

[Maz.]

Yeh but the goose neck is the perfect shape to put your foot in nice and snug.

but like when your ridding normal isnt different?

 

[heyhey]

my friend has a qcs fork and he can footjam it without putting it backwards.

on like a lucky fork it doesent matter, but on proto forks and stuff its really hard to footjam with it normal, i can footjam fine on my vertx fork but my striker was impossible to footjam on

Normal forks are 10 degrees offset so that means -10 degrees behind the headtube.

So flipping it around gives you more wheel to stand on. Makes it easier.

this and I got zero offset forks and its dosent seem that hard to foot jam for the fork but i ride street so i cant footjam and i never practice them but do u wedge ur foot into the gap between fork and wheel or have foot on the headtube and wheel if u get me lol
