The most important part of being a good rider is being comfortable on the scooter.

Skeet riding is pretty rare although my friends and i have found it to be more effective in some fields.

Feet Placement

Your feet placement could be a variety of different things. First since I am a skeet rider, I will go over how to rise skeet. Riding skeet makes it easier to do tricks such as manuals and brake stalls. To ride skeet, you place your feet on the left and right side of the brake, with one foot at an angle so that most of it is on the deck. Your other foot will be the foot that you push forward with and it will just barely be on the side of the deck near the brake.

For natural footing, you point your feet directly right of the deck and place your feet in the middle of the deck right next to each other. Riding goofy is exactly the same except for your feet will be pointing left.Normal foot placement

There are a few other styles of riding, which are very unusual, and usually not as effective as the three main types listed above.

Professionals

Professionals most commonly ride natural or goofy footing styles. That doesn't mean try to be like them, try to find what is most comfortable for you!

Your placement could mean the difference between being an alright rider, and being a good rider.
