How to STOP Pushing Mongo! (Fast and Easy)

How to stop pushing mongo! I pushed mongo for years when I first started skating. I focused on doing this simple practice to switch that habit and I have never gone back since! Now, it feels much more comfortable to me to push normal instead of mongo!

Bro there’s no way to stop. I look like a cripple pushing regular. Pushing mongo I look like I actually have a muscular system.

[@XSProgression]

Rain Man lol don’t stop practicing it!! I PROMISE you it’ll switch up. It’s just your muscles aren’t used to it yet. They will be 100000% I know from personal experience!!

[@reedphelps7438]

Lmfao I feel you

[@aloe83]

Same man, I feel so flimsy when I push regular lmao

[@omnifries3309]

XS Progression my left leg has no coordination. I need to push with my left. Also need my right foot to be at the tail. Mongo is the only answer

[@aloe83]

OmniFries it’s weird for me as well. I think it’s because I’m a lefty. But I feel way more comfortable with my left leg on the board while I’m peddling with my right and still I need to push mongo.

[@thebeardedskateboarder]

Been pushing Mongo for over 15 years. Just found out I have been pushing "wrong" this whole time, but it just feels more natural and smooth. Had a session last night just forcing myself to push the "right" way and it is soooo hard. God bless the internet. Thanks for your video, and for that I just subbed!

[@XSProgression]

Justin B dude I’m happy to hear you’re still shredding! Yeah your habit is to push with that front foot, but when you change it and practice the other way, it’ll feel much better! Since you’ve got that push down though, if you ever do anything switch or fakie, you’ll have it down packed already haha. Keep skating and keep improving! Glad this was helpful! Thanks for the sub!

[@mattbromoran6426]

its okay to push mongo brother, good skaters know how to do both and ride both styles. depends on the trick. this video is mainly biased. many professional skaters push mongo, its up to you. I encourage you know both and pick which you like more.

[@kryptionz5747]

Lol only people who are true posers and people with low self esteem want people who push mongo to push regular. Try doing my impossible boneless pushing regular. Once again another close minded skater so sad

[@xhooliganx7297]

I'm naturally goofy. I pushed mongo for a while when I little, until I started getting more serious about skating. I didn't want to have any disadvantages while I was trying to set up on my roll ups, of course you don't want your style to look spastic and all over the place. After I learned to push normaI I started getting more into switch and I realized that pushing mongo had actually helped me out so much with pushing switch. I have a very smooth and fluid style goofy and switch and I believe alot of that is because I pushed mongo for so long as a kid.

[@XSProgression]

Yeah I do agree. I feel like it ended up being helpful to me riding switch down the line too!

I’ve been pushing mongo ever since I started skating. Strangely, I am reg when I skate mongo, but goofy when skated normally. Kinda find that weird.

[@TCyTgaming]

420 same bro

[@ShnugFlug]

Same with me, but I can’t do tricks pushing goofy. It’s just because my right foot is far more balanced than my left foot when I’m pushing. I’m gonna work on pushing regular today though.

[@brynnplant]

Then in both cases you're using your left foot to push right? I do the same. I can't push with my right foot at all, my left doesn't feel stable enough on the board.

[@anifyz5958]

I tried pushing regular and it's damn near impossible my left foot just feels so much weaker and uncoordinated than my right foot

[@XSProgression]

Anifyz very common! Your left leg just isn’t used to it yet and isn’t as strong yet! It’ll be good to help strengthen your leg up similarly to your right leg as you get more comfortable and coordinated! Keep practicing and you will get it!

[@j.m.w.5064]

There is no reason to switch. It feels wrong to people who are regular just like writing with your left feels wrong for right handed people. The "disadvantage" doesn't exist.

[@echmiles1306]

Im a longboard dancer and a down hill speed boarder and I push mongo for past 3 years, and never once haves I had any issues from dropping the board as I'm running to doing steps, but one thing I feel I need to push regular for is to drift on my board going down hills or around corners, so I'm going to try to learn pushing regular and maybe this will help a lot ✌🏾

[@XSProgression]

Hope it helps!

[@ssolomiyag]

So I started skating like 4 weeks ago but like people tell me not to call myself a skater cuz I push mongo, but if I practice for 6 months then I’ll be available to do tricks

miaa. rosed you can be considered a skater and still push mongo haha. But it’s not a good habit to keep. If you really stick with skating and find it to be something you’re into long term, then you’re a skater!

[@matthewborders47]

I’ve been pushing mongo for quite a while now and I’m trying to change my ways. However, when I push regular, which still feels a little awkward, my board goes to the right when I push. It won’t say straight!

[@XSProgression]

Matthew Borders the bushings on your trucks might be worn on the one side and causing your board to want to go to the right every time. Try flipping the board around and push that way. If it fixes, then great! If it now goes to the left, get new bushings. If it still goes to the right, then it might just be how you’re balanced and you just have to keep practicing staying centered while you push! Hope this helps! You’ll get it!!

[@wetfanny]

Thanks my dude, I skated mongo for 10 years growing up and just getting back into skating now and decided to stop being stubborn and learn to push reg. I was hoping there was a secret trick haha this is what I was already doing, thanks for the vid and the confidence brother! Keep it up!

I am comfortable with pushing mongo but I do have trouble turning, can you do a turning tutorial?

[@XSProgression]

I may be able to make a video on that in the future! In the meantime, use these tips: Have someone help you loosen your trucks a little. Then when you are riding, lean to your toes to turn one way and lean toward your heels to turn the other way. This is really all you need to know! It gets better and easier with practice. If you want to keep your trucks tighter, you will have to push down a little with your back foot to make the board lift up a tiny bit and you can turn it that way too. This is also called doing a "tic tac" and is a great trick to learn as one of your first!! Have an adult read this and help you out if you would like! Keep practicing and have fun!

I just started a week ago and I can baby Ollie but I push mongo which makes it wonky to do an Ollie my left foot pushes and my right pops but pushing regular is so uncomfortable and hard but this helped so much I was so confused and frustrated bc of how I push but I’ll try to switch over to regular thanks so much this really helped I’m glad I’m not the only person tho

[@XSProgression]

Julianna Noa no problem! Yeah it’s pretty common for sure. Not too hard to fix though! Keep practicing and you’ll get it better and better!

[@MikeyHazel13]

I appreciate this one. Hate to say I didn’t even realize I pushed mongo until I got way more in to skating recently and I see and feel why it’s worse. Thanks for an inspirational fix your shit video instead of most others I seen that just make fun of it.

[@XSProgression]

hahah awesome man glad you liked it and found it helpful!

[@tojisimmp6150]

Omg thank you!! I would always mongo and a lot of people would say it’s “wrong” so I would get embarrassed after I was doing it since I was 9. I learned how to do it in 30 mins THANK YOUUU!!

[@XSProgression]

Awesome you’re welcome! So happy to hear that!! Congrats!! 🔥🔥

[@bethmtzzz]

I started skating around 13 and it lasted until around 16 I wasn’t that good so i just stopped but I’ve always skated mongo im 23 now and I wanna take skating a bit more seriously so I can learn the basics, its gonna be so hard to start all over especially trying not to skate mongo . Hopefully this time around I can learn to pump regular 💪🏼 appreciate the video man. Good to know someone learned to stop skating mongo!

[@XSProgression]

Welcome back to skating! I did something similar where I quit for years and then got back into it more seriously. It was easier this time around for me to learn things being older. It’ll probably be the same for you too. Just push normal always and it’ll quickly become your natural push 🔥🤙

[@Laz3rX]

@@XSProgression for suree 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@rockyyouremorappr5988]

Ive been skateboarding two years noe and mango all my life snow surf and skateboarding, it just feels right for me and i have no trouble with the balance, just tricks are harder to set

[@EraOfJo]

Man, all I’ve ever pushed was mongo and now regular is uncomfortable but I’ll try my best starting today.

[@XSProgression]

Hope you ended up practicing that day! It will switch, just stay at it!

I’m 43. Hopped on a board today for the first time in 20 years. I have pushed Mongo since I started when I was 12. I guess now is a good time to learn to push Regular. 😂

[@XSProgression]

Never too late to learn! Welcome back to skating man!!

[@rexy9517]

Thx this helped me to start pushing regular

[@XSProgression]

So happy to hear that!!

[@MCN1GHT]

Yep, stopped skating like 13 years ago. Decided to pick it back up. I've gone from regular mongo to goofy regular pushing.

[@XSProgression]

Thats a pretty interesting switch up after those years haha. Really cool though and welcome back to skating!

[@XSProgression]

Hahah you’re probably right. Cheer!

[@xBeeGee]

It just feels hard to ride normal because my dominant foot is more balanced and when I switch to normal I can’t keep myself upright

[@XSProgression]

Yeah it definitely will feel weird at first. Just really dedicate time to practicing it and the balance with your other foot will come to be even more natural. Afterwards, you'll feel comfortable with either foot pushing and its nice!

[@osnaecky9680]

The tip blew my mind! just do it

[@XSProgression]

🤯

[@DarkLilVibe]

I used to push mongo for years but found out it’s not the easiest for tricks. So I learned how to ride goofy. Took time and dedication but definitely worth it. Eventually, I plan on learning to ride regular.

[@XSProgression]

Keep shredding and having fun!

[@ieattoothpaste4957]

I know it’s kind of a old video but. I just started skating and haven’t gotten gotten it yet but I feel from the first time I tried regular pushing from now I got better

[@XSProgression]

Hey now vid ain’t that old! Haha awesome to hear you are getting better! Keep going, the more you do it, the better you get!

[@pinkracoon101]

for some reason as a begginer I did shit wrong. i am Rarm/Rleg dominant. i started drumming before i started skating and i would play the high hat on my left and the snare on my right. sort of like ''mongo drumming''. same with skating. i felt more stability standing on my right leg and pushing with my left. but after a few days of forcing myself out of my habit, it felt so much more natural for setting up drum fills, tricks on the board.

[@XSProgression]

Awesome! Keep at it and it'll get easier and easier!!

[@kelonwells9864]

thanks this is going to help because i go to the skatepark and kids would make fun of me thx this is going to help.

[@XSProgression]

Don’t let them get to ya! Everyone is always learning and improving their skating. Just have fun skating! Glad this was helpful to you! You got this!
